Looking at your op.gg profile, you're playing in roughly low to mid Silver MMR.

Master Yi dumpsters uncoordinated teams.

Low to mid Silver players are uncoordinated.

Your hypothesis checks out.

He shreds people quickly and if he is not CCed and focused effectively in a teamfight, or he is allowed to splitpush and get lots of gold, he will win 1v1, 1v2, sometimes as much as 1v3 relatively easily. He is going to pubstomp.

Also, in the games I looked at, the only champion that could point and click CC you (you can't dodge it with Alpha Strike) was Ryze in one game. Meaning that if you timed your Alpha Strikes well, you were able to avoid the CC from the rest of your enemies completely. Higher MMR players will tend to take more guaranteed CC to deal with champions like Master Yi, Fizz, Akali, Kha'Zix, or tend to hit the CC they must aim more than a low to mid Silver player will.

Maybe you found your champion. Keep going with it and see where it can take you. Good luck.

conquerer is their team has a tank that you think will be an issue, lethal tempo other times, bloodrazor into guinsoos into either tankyness or more on hit, use q to dodge stuff, engage with flash not q so u can q over important skillshots e.g. i flash onto brand auto him and when i see him go to w q i alpha where as if i alpha'd in it would be harder to dodge that skillshot while keeping my dps high

try to avoid fights if you dont have highlander, if you feel like u can splitpush and destroy up to 2 people who come to stop you at a time remember to use e when clearing camps use e right before your passive
