How to beat Master Yi

Common role: Jungle

A hyper-carry auto-attacker who becomes untargetable and resets his ult on kills.

What makes Master Yi dangerous

Master Yi is untargetable during his Q (Alpha Strike), heals with his W, and his ultimate makes him faster and immune to slows while cutting through a team. If he snowballs, his Q resets on kills let him wipe entire fights. He is farm-dependent and useless if behind.

How to play against Master Yi

• 1Hard CC beats him — but he can dodge single-target CC with his Q. Chain your CC or save it for after his Q, then lock him down.
• 2His ult ignores slows, so bring stuns, roots, and knock-ups instead. A single well-timed stun deletes him in a fight.
• 3Punish him early: invade and pressure his jungle before level 6. A behind Yi never gets the items he needs to carry.
• 4Don't let him reset — never fight a snowballing Yi with your team clumped and low. Peel him off your carries and burst him before he gets a kill.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓Completely farm/snowball dependent — weak when behind.
• ✓Melee auto-attacker: hard CC shuts him off.
• ✓No ranged threat and no waveclear pre-items.
• ✓Vulnerable while his Q is on cooldown.

Abilities & how to counter them

What each of Master Yi's abilities does — and how to play around it.

• P
  Golpe doble

  Cada varios ataques básicos consecutivos, Maestro Yi golpea dos veces.

• Q
  Golpe fulgurante

  Maestro Yi se teleporta por el campo de batalla a toda velocidad, infligiendo daño físico a múltiples unidades a su paso. Además, no se le puede marcar como objetivo. Golpe fulgurante puede asestar golpes críticos e inflige daño físico adicional a los monstruos. Los ataques básicos reducen el enfriamiento de Golpe fulgurante.

  Strong: Alpha Strike makes him untargetable, dodging single-target CC. Weak: chain your CC or save it for after Q, then lock him down.

• W
  Meditar

  Maestro Yi medita y rejuvenece su cuerpo, restaurando vida y reduciendo el daño recibido durante un breve periodo de tiempo. Además, obtiene acumulaciones de Golpe doble y pausa la duración restante de Estilo Wuju e Imparable por cada segundo de canalización.

  Strong: heals and reduces damage mid-fight. Weak: Grievous Wounds cuts the heal — anti-heal makes his dives losing trades.

• E
  Estilo Wuju

  Otorga daño verdadero adicional con los ataques básicos.

• R
  Imparable

  Maestro Yi se mueve con una agilidad sin igual, lo que aumenta temporalmente su velocidad de ataque y su velocidad de movimiento, además de hacerlo inmune a todos los efectos de ralentización. Mientras la habilidad siga activa, los asesinatos de campeones y las ayudas aumentan la duración de Imparable. Reduce de forma pasiva el enfriamiento de sus otras habilidades al conseguir un asesinato o una ayuda.

  Strong: huge attack/move speed and slow immunity to cut through a team. Weak: ignores slows, so bring stuns/roots/knock-ups — one stun deletes him.

Itemization

Yi is AD on-hit: armor and attack-speed slows (Randuin's Omen, Frozen Heart) wreck him, and Grievous Wounds cuts his W healing. Tenacity and hard CC (Exhaust, stuns) are the reliable answers in fights.
