Learn how to Master Yi counter with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Save your crowd control for after Master Yi uses his Q (Alpha Strike) — he'll be vulnerable for 18-20 seconds while it's on cooldown and can't dodge your abilities.
Basic Team Fight Skirmish
Disengage immediately when Master Yi activates his R (Highlander) — he gains immunity to slows, increased movement and attack speed, and takedowns extend its duration, making him extremely dangerous.
Basic Team Fight Skirmish
Invade Master Yi's jungle early when you spot him on the opposite side of the map — taking his camps delays his power spikes and starves him of the farm he needs to scale.
Lane Phase
Coordinate with your team to focus down Master Yi in fights — his Q (Alpha Strike) can only dodge a limited number of abilities, and coordinated CC prevents him from getting resets.
Team Fight
Interrupt Master Yi's W (Meditate) with any crowd control — this stops his healing and damage reduction, leaving him vulnerable to burst damage.
Skirmish Team Fight
Place Control Wards at Dragon and Rift Herald in the early game — Master Yi can solo these objectives even with minimal items, and vision allows your team to contest or punish him.
Lane Phase
Master Yi is at his weakest before level 6 — this is your best opportunity to deny him farm and delay his power spike.
Basic Lane Phase
Back to safety when low on health even if Master Yi isn't visible — he excels at finding and eliminating low health targets to fuel his snowball.
Lane Phase Skirmish
In late game, a single kill allows Master Yi to chain ultimates and Alpha Strikes — prioritize him immediately in teamfights before he gets his first takedown.
Late Game Team Fight
Master Yi's E (Wuju Style) deals bonus true damage with his attacks that bypasses armor and can't be blocked — be especially cautious during the 5 seconds after he activates this ability.
Advanced Late Game
