Master Yi and what I personally believe

TheJungler123··4 votes·987 views

I'd like everyone to know that this is an issue in league, yes I am aware that master yi isn't that bad when your team stuns him perfectly three times in a row to kill him. However this is not the game scenario that I speak of, I am talking about the game that you are playing with your not so skilled friends and you pick a team that is fun vs all hardcore. I'll bet every league player know this kind of game. Now its all fun until the master yi gets his 1st kill on one of your unskilled friends, not so bad until he gets so unbelievably fed that he can mow down three people in ten seconds, and by unbelievably fed, I mean 4-5 kills, if master yi gets level 6 before anyone he will automatically beat them. On to how I would change him, Riot I get his kit and what you want him to do, the main issue is the fact that his second ability reduces damage by 70%, this prevents any champion from killing him with any finisher like zed, I would like to see that damage reduction lower significantly. Next is his passive, double strike, one thing i hate about it is how it claims every 4th auto gets the second hit, but the next passive proc is in the third hit. I would prefer if this changed to something likes nocturnes umbra blades like make it so its seven seconds reduced via autos. And lastly please reduce the attack speed of his ult or at least make it so he gains attack damage instead, especially with a passive like the one he has. I'd like to see what you all think and please say leave the comments to viable changes that wont make it so yi still is played but fun to play against.

So essentially, are you suggesting if you suck you're not meant to be punished by Yi who is a you know, carry?

Any carry needs a team effort to shut down, it's no news. Yi is most likely the easiest to counter so I can hardly see the problem.

I hate having a terrible game because of a champion who is hard to shut down without a proper team is what I am saying.

If you play a match with a team that has no CC, against any comp there is, you are just asking to get raped and no one is going to pity you.

He only needs a CC, one, that isn't slow to blow him up.

That is, after level 6, before then you have 10 to 15 min of free aggression for you to spend on either lane pressures or counter jungle.

I fail to see the big deal because Yi is among the easiest carry to shutdown, if you can't beat him how are you supposed to survive and deal with other more annoying carries?

really one cc cuz i saw a 2 and 1 toplane chogath get absolutely destroyed by a 0 and 2 yi in the jungle with a stalkers blade with deveourer that wasnt halfway finished and a shiv and chogath has a knockup and i silence that both do a crap ton of damage and he had 2 stacks of his ult so i think he needs nerfing just a little

2 stacks, exactly.

A non stacked Cho is a melee mage, how tanky do you think he would be in that state?

Then we have other factors to consider, such as CS, mana count, buff etc.

Yi really doesn't need nerfs people need to play against him correctly.

Yi has a ton of counterplay, if you are going to play with low levels then expect to go against some other high level people who are better than them. Play a carry yourself, any carry in a lane against worse opponents will do well, their is no real way to balance the game in terms of playing premade with different levels without force people into lanes and roles.

+1!!!! I am 100% for this. Master Yi needs reworks! It makes the game unfair. Might affect my future on league if nothing is done. This has gone on for too long. Don't be like what you were to ashe riot. Just do it. summoner 14 MasterYi summoner 14
