MasterYi Master Yi is too broken. Without trying hard u can get pentakills or similar stuff. In Lategame his Q has almost no cooldown anymore and while using it he is untouchable. Thanks to his q many ults (and other skills) fired at him will just vanish without any effect. Thanks to that a single yi can brake the game completly and render a whole enemy team useless. It even doesnt matter much at all, if u are under a tower, in a bigger group or alone. He will most likely get at least one kill (or most of the time more) and that most of the time without getting seriously hurt. Additionally to the low cd of his q his ulti reduces the cds again by 70%. With that he can almost spam the q until he has got his pentakill.

In late game its almost impossible to do something against a Yi. Most of the chars will just fall too fast against him. I think that champ needs a reconfiguration. The sooner the better.

For starters the cd reduction for his Q should be reduced or completly removed. That would be my recommendation.

And your proposal is to remove his Q cd refund on takedowns? HAHAHAHAHAHA he wouldnt even be a champion anymore.

No u missunderstood. I dont want to remove his cd refund on takedowns from his ulti (a lil reduction yes, but not completly removing). I would target the cd reduction of his q-skill and see how that would work and additionally reduce the cd refund from ulti by maybe 10% or so (that would then still be 60% reduction).

Yi is a really simple champion, there's one rule you follow:

Fight only with ult

When Master Yi doesn't have ult, he's a non champion. If you can waste his ult or you engage on him when his ult is on CD then he cannot push advantages. Even if you use your abilities to waste his ult time, that can be the difference between winning a team fight and not winning a team fight

This is why he's prone to early invades and getting snowballed on, because he has no ult at that time. If that happens, he gets invaded and killed, he reaches his item powerspikes later, when they're less effective. Remember, Yi needs complete items to get their on-hit effects

He's so easily counter picked, counter ganked and prone to invades and that means that he's a really niche pick that needs certain conditions to be met to be able to do well, so not many people play him

There's no universe where Olaf, Jax or Xin Zhao aren't better picks

Low elo has lots of autolose junglers that aren't very proactive btw
