Ok, so as we all know, Master Yi is one of the best junglers in the game, due to his Alpha Strike and Meditate. With the right build, he can be successful at early game ganking... but late game, he dominates. Just a few minutes ago I was playing a match with a Master Yi. Early game, he didnt gank much, but instead got gold from jungle monsters. When we got to late game, he had a nice mix of CD reduction, AD, and attack speed. This mix made him 2 hit kill. That is a problem, fix it.

If he's so OP, then why is he never picked in pro?

You have to get some snares / stuns in your team comp. If Morgana locks him down and he can't auto-attack anyone, then he's gone.

Yi is most definitely not broken. In fact I'd say he's one of the weaker and more inconsistent junglers out there. I'm a jungle main and I make a point to never play Yi unless I'm just messing around in Solo Queue in Team Builder. First of all, Yi's ganks are incredibly weak early game and, in fact, pre-6. Yi hits a huge power spike at roughly 15 minutes, or level 11 (whichever comes first) because at that point, he's maxed out his FF stacks, hopefully has his first completed item (Youmuu's) and has two points in his ult. I've had games with Yi where I am completely afk jungling,then I countergank bot, score a triple kill, and proceed to carry. I've also had games against other junglers that know what they're doing, been counterjungled pre-6 (I hate you, Kha) and been useless until 25 minutes. Yi can be dealt with through competent counterjungling and deep wards.
