About me

Hello! I'm Doody_tco!
I'm the creator of the winner guide Miss Fortune - Road to Mastery 7. I am a main AD Carry and I use the the essence of carrying games in my playstyle as a . is my main . I have almost 180k experience points on and I have supported and played against almost all champions this includes supporting trolling ADC picks such as , , and even and I have the confidence to write this guide and share my experience to help everyone increase their knowledge about and help with hard carrying the game to victory! :)

Why play Yuumi?

is an interesting hard carry that fun to play. Although she depends on a carry, she gets stronger in late game and help a hyper-carry champion to carry the game to victory. cannot be targeted thanks to her ability, thus prohibiting her abilities to be interrupted by enemy's' skill shots. sustains her carry through healing and shielding as well as helping them escaping or reaching the enemy. is an easy to play champion. Through reading this guide, you will understand why get banned.

✿ ✿ ✿ ✿ ✿

Please read the following notes before you proceed to the guide:

Note 1: Please do not misjudge my personal thoughts and experience for picking Flash for Yuumi. Thinking that Yuumi is a champion attached to an ally most of the game and she needs to support them with only with Ignite and Exhaust does not make Flash less valuable spell nor make it a troll summoner spell. Moreover, Flash for Yuumi does not need to be a new OP Korean meta so you can have an instant change of heart in your beliefs. Flash for Yuumi grants two key winning elements; the first is surprising the enemy as they would not expect the Flash; and the second is tilting the enemy as they do not always see Flash for Yuumi which I saw in most of my games and lead the enemy team to not preform well which is what your team needs to win.

If you want, skip to the section where the guide explains why Flash is an essential spell to pick for Yuumi

Note 2: If you checked the section where I argued that Flash WORKS for Yuumi and you still believe that it is not a wise choice for Yuumi even after arguing about it with me in discussion section, then PLEASE DO NOT MAKE IT AN EXCUSE TO DOWNVOTE THIS GUIDE. IT IS NOT A TROLL GUIDE AND I PUT SO MUCH EFFORT BUILDING IT and making it useful in planning, itemizations, macro and especially studying all champions in the game and provided a thorough information. So, again, if you do not like this little detail in this detailed guide that literally exceeded PhD. in length, then please do not make it a reason to downvote this guide. ✿

Note 3: this guide talks in-depth about how to play Yuumi in most scenarios and against ALL CHAMPIONS. I will create a shorter version of this guide that is quick to finish and easy to digest for those who are new to Yuumi and want a "take-away" build, runes and tips. A link will be provided here soon.

P R O S

✧ Easy to play
✧ Cannot be targeted
✧ Hard carry

's main task is healing her carry with her and prevent them from dying. also increase the attack speed and movement speed which increases the chance of her carry to secure a kill or escape the enemy while kiting (if the carry is a ). also scales greatly in late game which make her useful with whichever champion she attaches to.

C O N S

✧ Craves mana
✧ Easy to die
✧ Late game support

costs a lot of mana. This means, should either wait for her mana to fill up or detach from her carry to fill mana with her passive which make her prone to crowd control (CC) that will prevent to attach to her carry and be easily killed. Moreover, is weak early game because her mana regeneration level is low and the cooldown of her abilities are long.

is everyone's support. That is why the match-ups section will cover how to play with/against ALL CHAMPIONS. You read that right, all champions you can play on League of Legends. During the game, you should focus on who is the threat in the enemy team, and who has the potential to carry the game and build items based on these two premises which is thoroughly covered in Match-ups section.
Generally as a and specifically as , keep in mind two key points; the first is, one of your teammates may not be doing good in lanning phase but they can have the potential to carry the game, be ready to support them. The second is, should dedicate 97% of her spells for saving and boosting her teammates, the rest 3% should be for .

Remember: your AD Carry may complain about having a Yuumi as a support instead of having a Leona or Nautilus as a support , but whoever wins in laning phase and carry the game, will almost beg Yuumi to attaches to them to give them extra boost..

Sorcery

The essential rune for , it boosts shielding her carry when she heals them with , and it is also pokes the enemy when attacks them. When 's carry is inflicted by grievous wounds or ignited, healing them won't be sufficient, but the shield from can save them.

A second option to pick for . This rune is a good option in lane phase when you know that 's will have a rough time farming. For instance, with with her short range attacks against and who have wider range of auto attacks. A great poke when using .

Since will be attached to her ally 95% of the game, this rune will definitely be useless, and even if detached and managed to hit the enemy with 3 attacks, the bonus movement speed she'll get will not be useful for her nor for her carry. One of the least recommended runes for .

✦✦

Grants a magic shield that absorbs magical damage. In most cases, the threat in bot lane is usually ad, and in team fights, can hardly escape from 3 people. Moreover, this shield will not benefit her carry. Therefore, picking another rune is recommended for .

✦✦

Since loses mana with , she can gain mana through poking the enemy with or from auto attacks with . This is the best option to pick for compared to and .

✦✦

will not benefit from using ; she will most likely use her abilities attached to her carry, and the ghosting effect will not affect her carry. This option is the less favorable and should not be used by (unless it is a top lane and this guide is not for that.

✦✦

The first option to think about when playing . This helps in reducing cooldown of which can be a game changer during all game stages. It also reduces the cooldown of and help in early-mid game, and reduce the cooldown of .

✦✦

Similar to , is not need for because most of the game she attaches to a teammate who will carry her around. The bonus movement speed that gains from will not affect her carry.

✦✦

is a good pick for since her health is over 70% most of the time. It is a nice poking rune especially when paired with . Pick when you know that your in lanning phase will have a hard time farming.

✦✦

A great rune to consider when you want to poke the enemy. Thus, pick along with and when playing aggressively with . It will make the enemy prone to death when your ganks, and helps kill the enemy faster.

✦✦

You can take a hint from that this rune is not useful for . Statements include "A River?! Uh-uh! Book hates water!!" and "Do not drop me, Do NOT drop me!!" as well. should attach to her carry most of the time and should not roam in the river alone,

✦✦

My most recommended rune for . It scales in late game as does in late game, increasing thus the ability power of . This gives two advantages, the first is increasing the healing powers of , the second is increasing the adaptive force of 's carry.

✦ Secondary path: Precision

✦✦

does not build life-steal items because that will not be useful for her carry and it won't be useful for her because she will be attached to her carry most of the game and not attacking the enemy. Do NOT pick this rune for the no matter what.

✦✦

As a , you should not be stealing kills from your carry, and even if it happened by any chance, will most likely be attached to a teammate with a full health bar, so it will not benefit her. is not useful and not recommended for the non-targetable .

✦✦

The ideal choice for , along with , will help sustaining mana. Use when is not used occasionally. This increases mana span and preserves a fair amount of mana in case her carry needed healing.

✦✦

This rune is more useful for and AD carries who depend on attack speed to takedown enemies and destroy turrets faster. should not roam alone attacking turrets. Moreover, she should not steal kills from her carry. Not recommended rune.

✦✦

Similar to , is attached to a teammate and should not takedown the enemy, and even if she did and she detached for her passive and she get stunned, it will not help with the cooldown of . Definitely not recommended.

✦✦

Increase the life steal upon enemy takedowns. Thus, similar to and , this rune is the worse pick for , unless it is a new meta but it most likely will not be dedicated to as a , not in this guide at least.

✦✦

gains extra adaptive force from her carry, thanks to , this makes poking with stronger and makes the enemy vulnerable to death which forces them to and deny them gold and experience in laning phase.

✦✦

The ideal choice for especially against tanky s. That is because has the lowest health compared to other champions. This means she will deal extra damage to enemies during all game and not exclusive to certain case as in .

✦✦

Basically, focuses on boosting with her . and will not be enough to kill an enemy. will be demolished before dealing enough damage to take down her enemy. Not recommended for .

✦ Secondary path: Inspiration

✦✦

is used mainly with engage s to use a CC ability such as or . cannot do something useful with her except for her ultimate which rarely needs a for it. Not recommended.

✦✦

Boots are not needed for . should not roam because it is dangerous, she attaches to an alley who roams and she helps keeping him safe. In case you picked for by mistake, fear not, you can sell it and make use of the gold.

✦✦

This rune grants a , it is a counter-intuitive item for to have. It is mostly useful when the enemy tries to under turret, activate it and wonders will happen. Sell the for some gold or sell it before use.

✦✦

A good option to consider, this gives the opportunity to build her item through a loan and thus boosting her ally faster. The amount of borrowed gold ranges from 50-150 gold, it is not great but it still can be useful. Always consider when going for .

✦✦

Even if you pick for , is not going to be useful to or her through the whole game. Plus, when picking , should depend on other runes and not .

✦✦

This biscuit can be useful to in two ways; the first is filling her missing mana she loses from using or , the second is selling them for gold and increased mana capacity. can be a good option for ..

✦✦

If you are going for for then should always be picked. It increases the ability haste and item haste, which means boosting items like and abilities which increases the survivability of 's carry.

✦✦

may detach from her ally to ensure hitting perfectly, but that is most likely the only useful way to make use of and it is not going to work 100% of times. Thus, it is not as useful for as .

✦✦

A rule of thumb when playing: does not use potions because she is mostly attached to her ally most of the time, and if she get injured, she can heal herself with . Therefore, will not be useful to her nor to her carry. Not an ideal for .

✦ Secondary path: Resolve

✦✦

Destroy turrets through lanning phase or when split pushing is a game-changer strategy. However, cannot do it on her own, moreover, 's max health will not allow her to do much damage to the turret, thus, is not a priority for .

✦✦

synergy with the slow from and the stun from . It may not heal your greatly early game, but in late game, 's max health increase with the passive of making useful.

✦✦

Increases armor and magic penetration when shielded. will mostly shield her ally, and even if she is alone, the bonus penetration will not benefit much. may be useful for y s, but it is not recommended for .

✦✦

Increases armor and magic resistance after minute 12. Another trait that -who is attached to an ally most of the time- does not need. Do not pick for the . As , this is more useful for s.

✦✦

In most cases, will not take damage from the enemy, and even if she did while detached and she attaches again to an ally, the health regeneration will not be sufficient for . Do not pick when choosing .

✦✦

Basically, if get hit by the enemy, she should instantly attaches to her ally, or escape the enemy to prevent getting more damage. Staying detached will make vulnerable and the trait from will most likely not save her.

✦✦

The extra health gets from the death of nearby minions, synergies with . If is not picked, then will make no use of max health gained from and it is more useful for y champions.

✦✦

Perfect choice for , it strengthen the healing from and as well as increasing the shield from and passive. Always pick when choosing .

✦✦

will not make use of the tenacity and slow resist she gets from , in most cases 's health will be 100%, and the passive cannot be transferred to her carry. Pick for instead of .

✦ Secondary path: Domination

✦✦

This rune synergies with , after the enemy is stunned by the ultimate, the next beams will deal true damage to the enemy. However, it does not synergy with . It is an aggressive option, but it is not recommended for .

✦✦

in most cases stays safe with full health, thus, will not make use of the healing from . Also, it is dangerous for to detach from her ally, the health she is going to lose is more than the one she will gain. Do not pick this rune.

✦✦

does not blink, dash, nor exit stealth, and even is she did, she will not make use of the bonus lethality, armor penetration or magic penetration. Do not pick this rune for when she has better options to use to support her carry or support herself.

✦✦

With , grants her marksman and her team vision for extra two minutes, it can be most useful when uses s or . Also, it grants additional adaptive force that increases the power of her abilities.

✦✦

The adaptive force provided from the passive of is similar to , yet it spawns a ghost Poro from s and grants extra 90 seconds of vision if not detected by the enemy. It is most ideal when placed in dragon pit.

✦✦

Shares the same adaptive force passive of and yet it works differently. grants adaptive force through taking down enemies. Thus it won't contribute to overall vision which is an essential part of being a .

✦✦

Grants omnivamp upon takedowns. in most cases will be healing her carry while having 100% health bar. Do not pick for . Not useful for her, nor her carry.

✦✦

Similar to and , increases the movement speed upon taking enemies down. Again, this is not needed for .

✦✦

The greatest pick for . reduces the cooldown on 's ultimate thus increases the aggressiveness of and the survivability of her carry.

Note: Check warding section for more details

✦ Rune Shards

The first rune shard to consider is either adaptive force, or ability haste. The standard pick recommended in this guide is ability haste because it reduces the cooldown of which is terribly needed in early game. On the other hand, adaptive force increases the healing power of , synergies with and can also be used when playing aggressively instead of ability haste. attack speed is not a good choice for as she does not depend on auto attacks in her gameplay.
The second rune shard should always be adaptive force. Even if the composition of enemy team is heavy AD or heavy AP, it is not recommended to build pick magic resistance or armor.
The final rune shard is optional and situational. For instance, when planning on using and building , would be a good choice. Other than that, the basic choice for armor, it helps reducing the AD taken from the enemy . If is facing an AP carry instead of AD carry, pick magic resist instead.

✦ Rune Sets

Typical:
This is your basic runes set if you are new to , playing against a balanced team composition, or simply do not know which runes to choose. and help make up the mana uses for healing; and +8 ability haste hasten abilities which especially needed for ; increases poke damage along with +9 adaptive (9 AP) and that may be a late game rune but not only it deals increased damage, but it also boosts healing powers and shield.

Typical - Inspiration:
will be your choice when you need against a strong early game matchups who pokes heavily. It is where you need to haste to heal and build your items faster to support your AD carry. will reduce mentioned ability along with , and helps build items faster and save your AD carry. is also useful when you know you are going to buy s more than usual, this way, will balance between purchasing s and building your items.

Typical - Resolve:
runes on helps boosting her ally in trading. on the other hand, may not help in mana regeneration or ability haste, but it increases healing powers and durability and sustaining their ally. synergies with before level 6, and after level 6. increases shielding and healing power that as mentioned, synergies with , , and which is useful against heavy poking lane.

Aggressive:
A good choice against enchanters and healers, and/or when your AD carry plans on playing aggressively against any champion role and you need to support them with extra damage. Since sticks to her ally most of the time, her health will be above 70%, therefore, the damage she deals with increases. add up to that damage by burning the enemy. As for runes, helps uses more occasionally if kills or assist in killing. connected to contribution to kills, so if unsure about contribution to kills, pick or instead, the bonus damage from them is less than though. Switch with for bonus damage.

Aggressive - Arcane Comet:
Similar to previous set. Switching to will increase damage, but it will leave your carry vulnerable, that is because, when uses , shields her ally, making it useful especially when the enemy your ally. Moreover, when auto attacking the enemy for , using , aery attacks the enemy too. deals more damage than but it does not shield . Picking is not highly recommended.

Q- Are there other runes to recommend?

It is always possible to try runes other than 's . For instance, you can go for 's which will grant a shield to your carry. helps sustain your carry more, pick to give your carry the chance to heal by slowing the enemy with or rooting them with , and to increase healing. Pair it wih or to help with mana regeneration.

You can also try 's which grants your team many benefits, pick to increase mana span and to reduce ability haste. Pair it with 's and to increase healing your teammates. However, you will depend on mana regeneration items a lot since both these runes do not grant mana regeneration ability.

You can try these two rune trees in game and see the wonders it works, you can also try other rune paths for fun since they will probably support and not her teammates, such as building AD items with or mage items with . If your aim to have fun, try everything, if you want to win the game, then it is best to stick with the runes recommended in this guide.

Flash

Earlier in this guide, it was mentioned that should have 3% to support herself. represents the 3%. While most will argue without a clear reason with: " should not take a flash" and it is probably because she attaches to an ally most of the game, it does not mean that picking for is a wrong or weak move. is useful for for multiple reasons; first of all: who put the rule that if 's carry die she should die with him too?! It is pretty similar to "a captain will be the last person to leave a ship alive before its sinking or utter destruction" but in a different way. If 's carry dies, she has every right to escape and not granting the enemy extra 300 gold and feeding him, and thus, creating less trouble for your team, especially if has a bounty from killing enemies, enemy team should not be strengthen with the extra gold. If you think that chances for escaping with is low, then you need to rethink it again and know that her chances of escaping is as good as any other champion in the game. Also, with , has almost a 100% chance to win against turret dives and killing the enemy or at least survive the dive. If grants gold to the enemy, then she is not doing her complete job as a , she is an independent champion who shouldn't rely on having a nearby ally champion to attach to not feed the enemy. The only case I would recommend using another summoner spell as a substitute to is when you are a premade with your carry and you fully trust their gameplay and their decisions during the game; in other words, it is when you know that they will do 99% perfect trades and they will do their best to keep both themselves and safe no matter how risky their play style can be, and you would admit that if they die, then you were pretty much are going to die with them with or without the .
Here is a proof from my previous games. If it is still not convincing, I can upload more videos to convince you that Flash works for Yuumi too until you are satisfied.

10 Reasons Why It Works!

Heal

should be picked for most of the times, even if your AD carry wants a different summoner spell, ask them to change their summoner spell if they do not plan on going for a double . The reason behind that is because the items builds synergy with as much as they do with . Also, if the enemy uses on your , the healing effect from will not be as effective, and if your ally's health is low and they use it will not save them. However, if does use it in the same situation, she will shield them with and increase the survivability chance for your carry.
Always check if the enemy and has ignite as a summoner spell, if they do have , make sure to use before they ignite your , or when the effect of ends. This will guarantees the optimum effect from . If the enemy and do not carry , then the use of will be situational.
Also, you can use when the enemy is not engaging your , do it when your is standing under the turret using or waiting for your when the enemy minions are not around, this will increases the health of your faster without the enemy realizing if you used so they won't ping it to their team.

But, does Yuumi even benefit from Heal?

Exhaust

Picking against engaging champions and burst damage champions such as , , , or even from the gank is useful to prevent them from killing the because it slows the enemy and reduce the dealt damage to your or carry. It can also be useful in preventing the enemy from escaping. During champion select, if your is not planning on picking , and you find it necessary to have it as a summoner spell, pick along with .

Ignite

An aggressive option to pick, it is most useful when playing against a healer such as or because deals grievous wounds and can prevent the healer from saving their or any of their teammates when they are on low health. Also, will deal damage for 5 seconds, which means, if the enemy health is low, the possibility of them to die from increases, thus, granting , a gold she can use.

Teleport

A pro option that I wouldn't recommend those who are new to or still have not mastered playing her to use it. for literally change the course of the game, it can grant your team a shutdown or prevent the enemy team from getting a shutdown, it can flip the tables on the enemy team, and most importantly, during a fight, when teleports, the enemy team will confuse and scatter, thinking a or a is joining the fight, this grants your team a chance to get them while scattered until teleports in and heal whoever in need with .
also be useful to join your teammates when they are far in the map and you need to catch up with them, or for instance, when the team carry uses , can catch up with them with her instantly without the need of walking all the way through. After all, is a team , but more importantly, she has to stick with the carry of the team because that is the main strategy to win the game.

Want to see how it works?

The downsides of though, it is going to take a place of another summoner spell that can be useful to your during laning phase, leaving your alone should not be a problem to them because all are used to having their dead and respawning, and they must manage to play safely until their is back to lane next to them. The other downside is that you need to keep an eye on all of your allies on the map to know when to in. For example, you do not want to to a lost fight, i.e, 1vs3, and you should not teleport to champions who are low on mana and cannot fight, you should also know where the enemy is before deciding to joining a fight, after all, if the fight is going to be lost, it is better for the enemy to have one kill than to have two kills.

✦ Summoner Spells Choices

✦ Basic ✦

Your typical choice. helps with saving your carry, saving and the rest of the mentioned reasons. saves your carry when is out of mana to heal with , synergies with and boost their movement speed. If unsure which summoner spells to pick, then and is your choice.

✦ Professional ✦

may help and her nearby ally, on the other hand is more of a late game summoner spells as it leaves your AD carry in lane phase vulnerable and gives the enemy in bot lane the advantage over 's AD carry. If your AD carry is not your premade and if you do not know what you are doing. Do not pick these summoner spells.

✦ Perfect Carry (PC) ✦

When your AD carry is a professional player, someone who will never die and let die, and if they die, they adapt to the enemy motives. help them win 2 vs 2 fight when the enemy have the advantage, and if they cannot win, they can escape with , helps them for previously mentioned reasons.

✦ PC (vs. Healers) ✦

The most aggressive choice for . helps your carry for the mentioned reason, reduce healing the enemy receive from their enchanter or from . will be useful for the mentioned purpose until you get , after that, it burns enemy and deals damage your carry can already do, making it thus less useful.

Q- What about the other summoner spells?

The mentioned summoner spells are the ideal to be used for and her carry during the game. As mentioned earlier in this guide, has the right to keep herself safe by using as an essential summoner spell because it can also be useful to keep your allies safe or granting them kills, but on the other hand is utterly useless for because she will be attached to her carry most of the game and it can only benefit her. Similar thing can be said about . on the other hand is not useful to , compared to , she cannot escape the enemy or reach allies through nearby walls.

As for ARAM summoner spells, then know that you should always take for in place of because craves mana and it will be hard to detach from a carry to get extra mana from and attach again without getting hit, stunned or dying from the enemy during the process. should never be picked by , it does not synergy with any of the abilities, it does not synergy with , and since has low max health, she will most likely die in the den of the enemy.

Bop 'n' Block

A crucial passive for and her carry. grants a shield and restores some mana (depending on level) when she auto attacks an enemy. is especially necessary during lane phase when 's mana regeneration is low and she craves it to sustain her . Its cooldown scales greatly from 18 seconds to 6 seconds in late game.

| Restored mana: 25−100 (based on level) (+ 8% maximum mana) | Shield: 60 − 400 (based on level) (+ 30% AP) |

✦ Abilities Sequence

The first ability to level up is and the second to max is . Keep in mind that the enemy and sees your as a weak prey because they can focus their attacks and abilities on them, and if they are good enough, they know that they need to play aggressively to deny the experience and gold for your carry. may not be strong at level 1, yet it can at least keep your carry in lane playing safely under turret along with the help of the shield from . As for , it is to poke the enemy and start scaling your and .

As for the sequence of maxing the abilities, it should be as the following: , , and finally as shown in the following figure. The reason behind that is that your teammates will find and much more useful in mid and late game than . does not always reach level 18 even in long games, especially if her carry sticks in the jungle. That is why you should prioritize maxing scale the other abilities before .

The only thing that scales with is the damage it deals, the slow duration does not increase. Thus, a level 1 can be helpful in slowing the enemy when your team needs the slow, on the other hand your teammates will build items that will deal damage. Your allies will find the passive from and the power of much more useful than . Even if you think that you need to scale in aggressive lane, know that your needs healing from more. Even if you think that will do the job for protecting your carry, it will be hard for to detach against and and attach to her thanks to their high immobilizing that prevents from attaching back. Thus, for poking, depend more on runes, or and .

✦ Combos

If you accidently -or intentionally- leveld up first, fear not, this combo will keep your AD carry safe (thanks to ) until reaches level 2 and can use . Also, this combo can be used in two different ways, the first is to provide a shield to your AD Carry with when is on cooldown and your enemy is damaging the AD carry; the second is simply to gain mana and/or shield with 's passive .

A common combo to use during phase when is not consuming mana with . Use to poke the enemy and give your AD carry the advantage in lane, then, restore mana with -and gain shield- through detaching from your carry, auto attacking the enemy, and attaching back to your ally. This combo is mainly useful in duels, do not use this combo during teamfights, in this case, will mostly be useful to slow the enemy to slow them for offenseive or defensive purposes when the fight is about to end. Instead, preserve mana for and stay safely attached to your ally.

Once you are sure about building a mythic item, start by building since it increases max mana to 300 mana, and it helps with mana regeneration. It also helps deciding which mythic item to build. If the enemy team does not consist of heavy champions and you want to play aggressive but you're still unsure, build .

Q- Are there other mythic item options?

On the other hand, both mythic items do not increase ability power or mana regeneration, their passive target resistance to damage, which sadly, do not increase the resistance of 's carry. Even if it is built for , it will be necessary to build 1 or 2 items to make up for the consumed mana. Moreover, 's coruscation is similar to 's coordinated fire but does not grant the other mentioned benefits needs. You may try these items if you are going off-meta and change from the healer to the tank.

Note: You should always aim to build your mythic item first, especially if you plan on building an item that has a unique active such as Shurelya's Battlesong or Everfrost. But in some games, it is recommended to build a legendary item first such as Mikael's Blessing when playing against AP carry Cassiopeia who have the potential to kill your carry with her Petrifying Gaze when he does not have Cleanse in his summoner spells. In this case, build your mythic item right after building the legendary item.

Morellonomicon
An alternative to yet not as recommended as the latter. indeed grants more ability power which means stronger healing, yet it grants 250 health not needed for , and it only takes effect when damages a champion and not from healing allies. on the other hand, empowers allies to deal 60% grievous wounds through healing and shielding which is the basic kit of , as well as increased the ability haste and mana regeneration for .

Rabadon's Deathcap
The similar and safe option to . is cheap, can start stacking with , however, building it will always be a gamble, if loses, it is useless and will be sold with little price. grants excessive ability power that will not be worn off with deaths, however, it is pricy and needs to have at least 1250 gold to build a single which will take some time to built.

Upgrades from . By starting building , will have no more struggles with mana and her major use for would be to get the shield for her ally.

knight's vow
a useful item to tank for your carry if they are squishy and dies fast. It is also useful when playing with s and to make them more useful. However, since has a little max health so it will not last long before the effect wears off, also, since will be attached to her carry or any nearby allies, she will not find the extra movement speed useful.

Frozen Heart
can make a use of the increased mana and ability haste, but more importantly, is a powerful legendary item to reduce the attack speed by 20% which is useful against carrying such as , especially if she built with its unique passive and increased attack speed. However, the passive of mitigating the damage will mostly go to waste.

These legendary items are not as recommended as the ones mentioned before. However, if you find that the match requires a game changer item, do not hesitate to rely on this list!

✦ Item Build

Typical Build

Item Sequence

If you are new to the game, don't know what to build, or your team results are even to the enemy team, then this is your basic build. balances between playing safe and aggressive through engaging and chasing the enemy or escaping the enemy. By building , you had enough time to know which one of your teammates have the potential to carry the game. If it is a , build first, if it is a , build , if your game is going really good, build right after your mythic item, or at least build and finish building . Finally, build before or after since the enemy team always have a way to heal with items, runes, passive and/or abilities.

Boost Ally Build

Item Sequence

Aim for this build when you see your team winning since early game. Building boosts your AD carry in lanning phase and boost your team later in teamfights. It is especially important in lanning phase when you are playing against an aggressive such as to damage them fast, and for late game champions that requires extra damage support early game such as and grant them movement speed for 2 seconds to engage or escape. Next, build to increase the damage of your carry, especially the ones that scale with ability power such as 's , and reduce the abilities cooldown which is needed by most AD carries such as 's to slow an enemy. If your AD carry is , build first to boost . Next, build to boost healing and increase adaptive force, this item will support all champions especially s, if you aim to build another item first, then build to collect stacks. The last item to build is situational, you may build if you need anti-healing item, or you build for further damage and healing. If the game goes as planned (when you built ), then you will probably end the game before complete building the last two items.

Aggressive Build

Item Sequence

If you are playing against a healer and/or a late game champion, then this is going to be your basic build. You need to poke heavily with in early game to gain gold from and force the enemy to use their s and force them to recall or denying them gold and experience. Use whenever you find the opportunity for the same mentioned purpose until you get enough gold to build where you ensure that your enemy do not escape you. Build so grant her carry to inflict grievous wounds while your carry focuses on building necessary items to deal damage. If you are winning, build , if you are even with the enemy team, build or depending on whether your carry is a or a .

Vs. Heavy Tank Build

Item Sequence

This is a suggest build when the enemy threat is a . Taking a down such as or requires lethality or a such as who deals true damage. Therefore, building may contribute to taking him down, but it will not do much. That is why picking on is tricky. is an aggressive choice against squishy champions as well, but it does not support your carry as or does. Moreover, most champions can slow or CC, that is why you should always have to it to save your carry when slows them for example. If you do not know what you are doing, build another mythic item instead of . Also, since most champions heal, build for your carry, and lastly, build or . If you are winning the game, switch with .

Defensive Build

Item Sequence

This is when you know that you are playing against a hard matchup. The purpose of this build is to increase healing and shielding powers to your ally. Do not buy unless you know that your AD carry is new to lane or champion or they have a short range of attacks and they're gonna be build. If that is not the case, build to help with regenerating mana. Build and damage the enemy with or to help your carry heal. Build and because they grant 20% heal and shield power, not to mention the save your ally with extra healing from and removing CC with . Build for your carry, and build to increase grant more vision and keep you carry safe, and also build it to increase ability power and haste.

The best defense is offence, therefore, it is best to pick one of the previous builds instead of this one. If you are sure that your game is going to be rough, pick this build.

Note 1: If the enemy support is a healer, do your marksman a favour and build Chemtech Putrifier before building your mythic item. This way your marksman deal damage, get healed by Zoomies and take the enemy down easier instead of relying on solely on Ignite.

Note 2: If you are playing against a heavy CC bot lane, build Mikael's Blessing before building your mythic item. Not only it removes CC and help your marksman trade, but it also empowers Zoomies and Bop 'n' Block powers by 20%. Advice your marksman to build Quicksilver Sash.

Note 3: The course of the game can change anytime making Yuumi's build in some cases less efficient for her carry. Do not hesitate to sell your mythic item and switch it for another win. For example, if Jax is your carry, and you have Everfrost, sell it and get Moonstone Renewer, he will benefit more from it.

Note 1: Things may differ between champions in the same role. For instance, most fighter s has CC abilities such as Poppy's Heroic Charge or Jax's Counter Strike and that is why it is recommended to build Mikael's Blessing to negate the stun. Master Yi on the other hand, does not have an ability that immobilizes a champion, thus, building Mikael's Blessing against Master Yi is not recommended. Also, since Mikael's Blessing does not negate airbone, then the same case applies with abilities with fighter champions as Yasuo's Steel Tempest. The same applies for other roles. Therefore, check the following seciton for recommendations in-detail for each champion.

Note 2: keep track of the build of your team especially your potential carry to know which items suits them best. Also, always check who the enemy carry is and what is their build to know which items Yuumi should build to counter them that goes accordingly with your carry. For instance, you should build Chemtech Putrifier against enchanters, however, if your carry built anti-heal item such as Mortal Reminder or Thornmail, then build another item to support sustaining them or increase the damage they deal.
