I used to build


So I took everything that was bad about yi, and turned him into a monster. And it works.
2. Usefulness for team
In lobby, when I pick


Don't know if this works with Normal Games, but I guess you own even more with it.
Why is this build so good:
Once the build is completed, you have:
4.5k+ life
102 MR
140 Armor
350 Damage
81% Crit
So in other words you can fight, and win against half of their team, even alone.
-Amazing single target damage
-Good chaser
-Good escaper
-Very good farmer
-50% defense against magical
-60% defense against physical damage
-4500 health
-40% Slow
-Short CC durations
-Good ganker, from the beginning on
Cons:
-No lifesteal
-No serious AOE
-Damage not as high as of full AD

I use to build him with Berserkers, PD, TF, IE, BT, BT/BC.
The downside of this build is that as soon you get in a fight you will be CCed and killed.
And this HUGE downside is countered with this build, yet keeping all what is amazing about him.
Greater Mark of Desolation
Standard AD runes, you don't want to itemize for Armor Penetration, and no one, except the enemy "Tank" will stack armor.

This is for late game MR. Its painful what a bad synergy MR items have with


This is for early game armor. If you get less damage in jungle, you will not be killed while ganking, helps you with towerdiving and against AD enemies.

Normally I don't consider ANY other items. The additional 100 health is just so awesome, you can gank mid at lvl 2, even before they really begin to farm(they will be lvl 1). The enemy either dies, or your ally gets dominance right away, and the enemy loses a

By now getting more attack speed is worse then getting AD, because you should have maxed [Wuju Style]. Now you need raw damage.

Awesomeness lvl 2.
You have reached a point where your damage output is phenomenal. You take down squishies in seconds. In teamfights wait for someone to initiate, then go for the squishies.

This gives you so much health, its ridiculous.

Health, damage, slow. Just excellent.
12.

This gives you so much damage, and raises your crit chanche, and armor.
By now you solo towers in matter of seconds, without minions. This is where multikills happen, given the game reaches this stage.
If you come so far, you might be called hacker, cheater, OP, "Yi noob champ" and other funny things. It always makes me smile!





Under exceptional circumstances, like


He needs it, otherwise the fist few minutes get too long in the jungle, and you cannot gank in time.

With this you can towerdive, and escape, or land that last hit. Later on if you backdoor have this and your
