Yi was Broken Before... Now He is Just Absurd

I was just in a game where we were doing really well.... and Yi was garbage. Then all of a sudden, that Yi player seemed to turn into a god. As a tank, I got deleted without a chance to even flash.

What is with your game, Riot that is Made in China?

Well I wasn't worried about the Yi at the beginning of the game, and their adc was getting destroyed early game. So I went Maw because Teemo was giving our Lux trouble. Then when Yi started to kill everyone, that's when I went ninja tabis.

The ADC was not a problem.

Never mentioned the ADC

Yi is the crit carry here.

just do the math. 700 - 70 = 630 (use 700 because the lager the auto attack the more damage ninja's block just as an example )

you had literally nothing to defend yourself against yi. your early game focus should always be to fuck over yi in some way. if you can not snowball the lanes just provide pressure and counter jungle with vision. Yi is bad because he crumbles against any early game pressure which denies him his mid game power. its the same thing with yasuo, you're trying to slow down his scaling and prevent them from power spiking until your team is equipped to deal with it. thats why you see yasuo's and yi's get crazy scores in low elo's. because a lot of the time, the enemy team does nothing to prevent them from power spiking early and they can proceed to be a monster for the majority of the game.

Are you blaming any aprticular runes for this, or in what way is he more absurd now than he was before once he got his items?

Your fault for only having one cc champ on your whole team vs a yi. Ha.

... Unsurprisingly you are unranked and play an excessive amount of bot games.

As a yi main, yi actually got nerfed with the removal of fervor. PTA is a shadow of what fervor used to be, and the 1.5s charge time of LT is more significant than you think. A fed yi should delete a squishy in about 2 seconds, and lethal tempo doesn't help him do that.

2 outcomes - he gets the kill, didn't need LT anyway. Or he doesn't get the kill and gets blasted before LT activates. It's overrated
