What is Master Yi suppose to do vs Akali

SlashStriker·Nov 7, 2018·2 votes·1,650 views

Before when I fought Akali and she uses Shraud I could at least meditate and wait for her shroud to go away. Now if I try to fight her she goes stealth so I cannot hit her anymore. If I try to Meditate she is just going to stun me with her Ult. So wtf am I suppose to do against her as Yi? Literally no counterplay to her

Champions with AoE can at least do something againt her, predict where she is and try to land couple of abilities on her. But Yi can literally do nothing against her

Other champion's visuals match their gameplay like Katarina for instance has tons of daggers and she uses them but YI's visuals makes no sense.

Why he has Sword Boots? Why he has Goggles? Use them god damn it!

Just admit it. Yi is THE definition of low counterplay. Super fast, untargetability damging blink. Complete stat check during R. True damage dps (from kit and Conquerors), %hp damage from builds. Can't be kited. Only counter is cc and either being ahead or early game enough to burst, or teammates: some to cc while others do damage. The dude has no abilities he can miss and is a true right click wonder. You should feel ashamed of this post.

45% bonus MS is very fast? Other mobile champions have way more than that and even if some champions don't have mobility they can still waste his highlander easily and just walk away. Since Yi got no crowd control enemies can just walk away from him so he has no way to stop them. He loses movement speed cause he has to stop to land basic attacks Somehow other champions have better escape than him even Darius that pulls you and roots you and then he just walks away. All Yi does is damage. Other champions have utility. Like Warwick and Volibear have way better ganking potential thus snowballing the their allies and their ganks are easy. If Master Yi's ganks are good most players wont spend time AFK Farming Again Darius is picked alot on LCS and Yi is not. Someone that uses Darius icon tells me that I should be ashamed and stupid crap like that.

Darius has a root now? I guess i didnt get that memo. A 45% move speed buff that also grants immunity to slows is strong and smart use of q can avoid or negate many forms of cc, abilities like liss root are useless because it doesn't stop him casting q.

I'm saying you should be ashamed to make a post as a you player complaining about akali having no counterplay due to the general hypocrisy. What you feel trying to 1v1 her is what 95% of the roster (short of champs like jax and tryn) feel trying to 1v1 or even 2v1 you. And btw, akali hardly adds enough cc to count in this matter and she has less damage than you. All this being said, yeah akali is broken, but you isn't not a good example to compare against to illustrate your point. He's heavily in need of some design changes as well.

What LCS are you watching where Darius is pick/ban? I haven't seen a Darius in a game for quite some time, and I watched most of the worlds games.

Q her R

Walk out of her shroud and come back in when it expires? lol

Your mere presence should be enough to get her to use it. She can't fight you without it even if you don't ult. So don't ult until after she does.

I would highly suggest playing champs with some form of hard CC. That is the best solution to every annoying, flashy, seemingly unfair champion. They can't deal damage or do their flashy bs if they're constantly stunned and/or knocked up. Either that, or someone on your team needs hard CC to lock her down instead.

You kill her team-mates and then get objectives. Accept that this is a situation where for once another champion has the upper hand, and focus on pushing those that you control instead.

Just stat check the rest of her team with R and Q's
