yi and jax are good against that whole team because they can splitpush all game and none of those champions can 1v1 them. stop trying to team fight.

splitpushing is good and all but what happens when your team forces a 4 vs 5 and start pinging where the **** you were

Well, no champion pick has ever saved a very bad team from itself.

By the way there are smart ways to splitpush and bad ways to splitpush. If you start splitting at your t2 when the ennemy team is at your inib tower you are doing it wrong.

In this case you should be ready to flank them and you should cut the reinforcing minions that are coming behind the ennemy team. None of their champions should be able to catch you, so you should be safe doing this.

If they go for a dive and waste their cds on your team, now you can go and cut them, Yi deletes darius, sejuani and nautilus like they are paper wich a on hit build. In such a team I would play with mercuries and the Legend:Tenacity runes, add an elixir of iron and a sterak and you will have : 30% + 30% + 30% + 25% tenacity which is multiplicative so 74% tenacity, which means CC divided by 4.

Get waves pushing constantly. Then, even if your team loses the 4v5 you can get at least 2 turrets and maybe an inhib. It forces a lot of things to happen:

They ignore you for inhib/baron -> Get inhib/nexus turrets or just end the game

1 person backs -> If they aren't fiora, then you can dive, kill them, and keep pushing.

2 people back -> Only 2 or 3 (depending on if someone died in the 4v5) people are pushing and can't end/baron

The only way splitpushers lose games is if they get 2/3 man ganked, they're forced to teamfight, or they aren't doing their job right and constantly have unpushed sidelanes.

You can either splitpush or alter your build to be a little more defensive.

You be a janitor. Sit back and watch the fight until you see the enemy cc abilities on cooldown then go in. Also get merc treads and steraks and run tenacity rune.

Split push, build defensive, or both. Dont look for plays, look to take advantage of misplays.
