Sated Rageblade Yi still ruining Low Elo

God Went MIA·Mar 7, 2016·2 votes·732 views

It's getting pretty old seeing a yi in every game that he isn't banned, which is a lot because for some reason everyone is still banning Mundo and Tahm every single game. I get that he is not considered OP and is very easily countered at higher Elos, but in low Elo if you do not pick an entire team around countering him he will be able to 1v5 no matter what he does.

His damage is absolutely broken with sated rageblade, and he can out duel tanks and fighters that should be able to counter him, as it is supposed to be their job. It's getting beyond stupid to see a yi in every game and then countergank him all game, have him start 0/5 and then end 20/5 as he can 1v5 as soon as he finishes sated rageblade.

There needs to be more that plays into earning a win or a 1v5 than finishing 2 items.

He is meant to be able to beat basically every tank and most fighters in a duel. That's one of his biggest strengths. One on ones.

I don't know who told you that Yi should be beaten 1v1 by tanks and any fighters, but I'm going to assume it is Riot's fault for labeling him an assassin. He's not really an assassin like Talon or Katarina, who are indeed countered by tanks and fighters 1v1. He's a melee carry, like Jax, Tryndamere, or Fiora. Generally speaking the only champions who can win a 1v1 with a melee carry are other melee carries.

Also, Yi can't 1v5 unless monstrously fed.
