Review for: Palzm's Guide
Constructive Criticism

Uhm ok Runes. First I think you could include mana/mana regen glyphs instead of mr glyphs. Mana is helpful for Yi in the jungle, fo sho.
First build, I wouldn't recommend getting a FM unless your absolutely raping people left and right and want to just rape moar. Getting a BT that late isn't to good either...
Also you should keep Wriggle's late game just because of the free ward. It's so amazing bro.
Since your first build is completely offensive, I recommend going Black Cleaver + Stark's instead of FM + BT/FM + Wriggle's.
With Black Cleaver + Stark's you get about 1155 DPS on a zero armor target, with BC + BT you get about 1364 DPS on a zero armor target.
I recommend starting and leveling Wuju Strike first. I never use to like it but in all honesty it's a bit better jungling. And it increases your damage so much mid/early game.
Not sure why you list Tiamat as viable don't mention Stark's >.> Tiamat isn't that great either btw.
Mention putting a point in W if your being counter jungled etc.
Talk about dragon and baron.
Your role in teamfights, and about backdooring.
Mention something about TP and how to use it.
Mention Triforce cause it's probably one of the best damage items for Yi.

Verdict:

Pretty good. Short and sweet.

Head on down to My Review thread If you want to have some more comments on your build or if you want to discuss it some more :D

Yes and you have also made another yi guide in which you are fighting for top 10 lol.

Yi most likely will need a wriggles, and even if he doesn't need it, the item itself is very useful

Wriggle's gives lifesteal, ward, and the effect on minions = Faster jungle/Faster farm

Oh ok, I guess its up to personal preference and playstyle. I do like to take that early point in meditation as it makes me feel a bit more secure. I'll have to play around some time and try it without getting it so early.

Also, what do you think about getting Frozen Mallet earlier?

I know it isnt core on him by any means, but maybe it could help out early game more than it could late game?

Just curious... I'm not a hardcore Yi player

I wouldn't finish the frozen mallet early, instead I can get a phage for that lil HP and slow proc.
Like most AD champions, Yi needs his damage items first and maybe some defensive items later.
However, if you are dying a bit too much, then you might want to get some defensive items.
