0/0/0 by 8 minutes

2/6/2 by 20 minutes. We tried to shut him down.

5/8/2 by 23 minutes. All it takes is a rageblade and he has 3 more kills easy.

9/10/3 by 30 minutes. We killed him 10 times, but it makes no difference if we kill him 100 times. By this time he starts snowballing and there is no stopping. him.

16/10/4 by 34 minutes. He just presses R and collects kills. No way to stop him. No CC that he can't just avoid with alpha strike. No nuke that he can't just negate with meditate.

26/17/9 by 48 minutes. The only reason the game went on this long is because the Yi had 2 feeders on this team. TWO!! But it makes no difference. The Yi will always press R and penta kill your team end game, nothing you can do about it. No matter if you kill him 17 times. No matter if he has 2 feeders on his team. It makes no difference. He just presses R and you lose.

This happens every game there is a MasterYi . The endgame scaling, combined with true damage that you can't build against, combined with a never-ending ult, combined with not one, but two ways to negate damage to himself, this champion always comes back to win the game in the end, no matter how far behind he is. Master Yi is a free win every time in the hands of a skilled player. There is no counter play. No way to stop him from becoming a one-man army.

  • Get rid of the extension his ult
  • meditating should make your defense lower, not higher.
  • alpha strike should be melee range, not 600 range

They had 3 feeders and you guys lost? Sorry but you probably had garbage team mates. No team should lose vs 3 feeders in season 8.

Well, even if one feeds he cans till throw a lucky ability and damage enemy team. Even if he dies with amazing score 0/20 Yi can still clean this up. Sometimes you also lose because your team lacks any good teamfight starting potential or lack of any CC (had games like those. It was godawful)

I mean you went to 50 minutes vs a Yi. The fuck did you expect?

Your changes are God awfully btw. Like how much crack are you smoking ma dude?

  • A Yi without ult isn't worth shit in a team right. He needs the extender.

  • Why would you need to both channel AND lose resistance just to heal? When other champs have instant heals?

  • Melee DPS champs need gapclosers removing those is pretty much removing them from the game.

Clearly no thought was put into actually improving it's kit, just in gutting it as easily as possible.

Anyway, the game isn't on this account's op.gg so I'm assuming it's on another account. Always interesting when ppl pull that kinda shit, especially With how little info we get about the game in question.

If you really were stomping as hard as you claim, why didn't you just end early?

How is seven seconds not long enough? Why does he need more?

  • Why would you need to both channel AND lose resistance just to heal? When other champs have instant heals?

Because he's a melee, not a healing mage like Soraka?

  • Melee DPS champs need gapclosers removing those is pretty much removing them from the game.

No, he doesn't, he already has immunity to slows and extreme movement speed boost. Why would he also need a gap closer on top of that?

Clearly, you are a Master Yi main who is incapable of any thought and just came here to troll out of fear your favorite free-win champion recieves some criticism.

Because after we kill their team, the fucking Yi shows up to counter penta kill our team.

Tell me one melee carry champ that is viable that doesnt have some sort of gapcloser. Youll see why champs like Nasus Yorick are hot garbage.

Jerry SeinfeId1 votes

To be fair they get cc instead. It's a fair trade off on paper.

ankoanko191 votes

So does Camille Riven Irelia Yasuo Fiora A melee carry cant be without CC unless they have very good defence mechanics (Yis Q, slow immunity and heal & dr) Otherwise their kits offer barely anything and theyre either too good at what theyre doing or utter shit.

Jerry SeinfeId1 votes

He needs to kill someone to get more than 7 seconds. It's a buff type ult they often last a while: singed 25, Jax 8 I think. It's to last through the fight.

Because he's a melee, not a healing mage like Soraka?

That's just flat out wrong. Yi is unable to do anything else during his channel time. I'm pretty sure that league's most basic mechanic is not standing still. It leaves him vulnerable. What would the point be if it was basically a suicide button.

No, he doesn't, he already has immunity to slows and extreme movement speed boost. Why would he also need a gap closer on top of that?

There's shit you just can't Dodge point blank without a dash.

No, I'm not. I main jinx mostly. Top 5 mastery is jinx, singed, Leona, teemo, ezreal. I do play Yi, crit offtank Yi mid to be exact. In normal draft. Your proposed changes are simply gutting the champ.

Because after we kill their team, the fucking Yi shows up to counter penta kill our team.

Anyone who wins 1v5 deserves to win.

This is why I always ban Yi.

MrDrBudd2 votes

So 3 people were feeding and you let it get to late game? When Master Yi regins supreme? I wonder what went wrong. All of the cc on your team is either delayed or are really slow skillshots, so you needed to end early. You lost this at champ select tbh.

"I let a game go 50 minutes vs a Hypercarry"

Oh man the champions unbalanced.

I'm guessing he's no higher than gold.

It's much harder to end games quick in bronze-mid gold

His entire kit just needs to be reworked. Also stop giving everyone true damage and actually remove true damage from the game as it provides less counter play like legit you can build full armor and HP and Yi can still shred you without building any armor / HP shred items just because of his E.

ShadWooo1 votes

Actually almost everytime I have Yi it ends with him going ham on one to three targets (which then turns into 1vs5) when nobody from our team is nearby to help him and we lose because he has all the kills and rest of the team is weak af...

I don’t think removing his damage reduction on meditate is a good idea. That damage reduction is balanced by him being immobile during this time. Being immobile AND lowering his defenses would pretty much remove that ability from the game outside of maybe healing between camps.

tbh my yi went to the shitter as soon as graves became meta. yis winrate is now 47% and sinking.

In that case, maybe you can teach me what I need to do to come up to your SILVER 2 level NemeBro?

Sure thing bud, maybe you should stop hard-feeding Yi, learn how to keep people out of the game and close games out, and perhaps don't make girlish whine posts on the boards when you lose to provably weak champions. Then you might be almost half as good as I am.

Probably not though. It's the difference in our births I fear. I'm simply neurologically advantaged relative to you.

If I'm not mistaken

A dangerous assumption to make about yourself when you're so bad you hard-feed Yi, can't keep him down after he's died six times, and then make estrogen-filled whine posts to get other people on your cognitive level to give you a pat on the back about it. =)

Aw, your second post was deleted before I could even see it. How frustrating for me, though at least I'm not as frustrated as you little guy. =)

No CC that he cant just avoid with alpha strike.

Champs with CC abilities that Master Yi CANNOT alpha strike to avoid Blitzcrank point and click knock-up Braum stun on passive triggered by auto attacking 4 times. Fiddlesticks point and click fear LeeSin point and click knockback Leona point and click stun Lissandra point and click suppress Lulu point and click polymorph Malzahar point and click suppress Maokai point and click root Nautilus auto attack passive is a root Pantheon point and click stun Rammus point and click taunt Ryze point and click snare Rakan point and click movement charm Skarner point and click suppress TahmKench not even sure what this ability is but he eats you

If you notice, master yi's main weakness is CC that is POINT AND CLICK. Yi cant alpha strike from a point and click spell (only projectile, skill shot or AOE cc can be avoided.)
