Master Yi Guinsoo's Rageblade Stacking Buff [Gameplay Bug]

Much like the issues in the past with alpha strike cooldown cutting, Master Yi's double strike does not add an additional stack to guinsoo's rageblade ramping.

EX: If you have done four auto attacks with Master Yi (which is actually 5, due to his passive), you only will receive 4 stacks of Guinsoo's Rageblade Active Stack.

I am not sure if this is on purpose, but it sure does add some confusion of clarity due to the fact that this second strike on the 4th auto attack lowers the cooldown of Alpha Strike by two seconds, implying Master Yi's passive benefits go beyond just the fundamental damage component. However, this is not consistent in the fact that Master Yi will only receive 4 stacks on Guinsoo's Rageblade when in reality, he has done 5 on-hits.

Pretty sure that was intended, even if not, they'll desire it to be intended to avoid abuse.

that's how it was previously. It's not one less, with his AS it's super quick (only kog is has more AS than Yi).

they did it intentionally because he could double strike every single auto once the passive kicked in. this would then cause the phantom hit to strike as well. And with 2.5 attack speed that meant he would get 3 attacks per swing causing him to hit nearly 7.5 attack speed. They intentionally didn't want this happening.
