Master Yi doing 50% of a tanks health as True Damage what the hell?

hes always done that and riot allows it cause they think its healthy then even have stated his gameplay is fine and healithier then old aatrox.

That's just Yi being Yi though... When has he not done this when fed? A fed Yi has done that for as long as he has existed.

Did you just started playing last month and just found out what a fed Yi can do? Cause otherwise this post is as useless today as it was in 2014.

hi there silver player, for 0 clue players il explain . Masters E giving him true damage for 5 sec https://i.imgur.com/CeGBbXz.png enjoy to learn abilitys instead of making stupid thread about champs who dying in 1 stun [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

50% hp?

With elder Dragon buff or what? If so then know that it´s bugging and some champs can trigger it seemingly randomly and execute targets with just 1 hit regardless of how little damage is done.

Otherwise i am really wondering because without Conqueror doing true damage then there shouldnt really be any way for Yi to do so much true damage quickly? I mean a tank has at least 4000 health and Yi´s E does like 80 per hit when maxed out.

Even with 20 hits that´s not 50%, close but not quite there yet and it´s 20 fricking hits.

Another Clown fiesta season is upon us.

I don't even want to play it. I might play one or two more games but i fear those few games will burn me out so much that it will make me quit league for months

I'm looking at the comments and the underlying arguement is that he's always done this... Sooo it's fine? I have been playing the game for 5 years and it's true, he has been a hyper carry that runs at you at mach speed while tearing down tanks and getting pentas, but why do we have to be ok with that? Why are we putting in the effort into playing harder champs with lesser of a yield (with the exception of Yasuo). I'm not going to lie, playing against champions that just scale is terribly unfun, it confines a winning condition into having to win early game and that is just unrealistic in a lot of cases. Why am I fighting against time because the same thing I do in terms of playing the game has more of a reward for you than I? Prime examples, Nasus, Veigar, Yasuo, Jax...

I personally don't mind going against champions like Kassadin, Vayne, Kayle and a number of champions that do better in the late game as opposed to their early, because the difference is there is more counterplay and more room for error on their behalf, more often than not, those who do good late game on these sorts of champions are skilled or understand their champion, to the point where it feels like a skill matchup instead of a complete white wash because their champion out performs mine. I don't main any of those listed so it's not a case of bias and I agree, sometimes when I get one shot by a late game Kassadin I just think "W.T.F" but at least I understand that he is truly a late game champion and is otherwise fed as a result of mistakes that can be rectified in future games. He didn't just come back to lane with a / - (Nasus) and begin to start winning lane. He didn't back and get a (Ryze) and start outrading with 0 AP benefits... So it feels fair

That's just my take tho...

Just ban him, it's what I do. Shaco is the only other unbearably broken JG but at least tanks can deal with Shaco whereas Yi with rageblade just melts everything short of stacking 3 CC champs in your comp.

Yi's early game weakness has been completely mitigated. He may not be able to duel out a voli/warwick/xin zhao/udyr/reksai early, but all the other champs he most definitely contests just fine and by lv6 will outduel and be able to invade with impunity.

Alpha strike should not do the damage it does on top of being such a great juking tool with a gap closer built in. It's virtually a better version of Kayn's ult, what the hell.

Ok so from what i can assume its the game you played as Leona where you armor items were a Righteous Glory, Glacial Shroud and a knights Vow against a fully build Yi. What damage did you expect to tank from him? E gives true damage and the guinsoos he built gives him percentage armor piercing. Even then you guys won.

Holy shit, people in the comments are actually defending Yi being able to do that. How far did we fall?

" we want master yi to be THE true damage champ" like what they did with blitzcrank

Topics like this remind me of the times I've played against people who call me a camper for using projectile characters in fighting games. Yes, I'm going to use what I have. What else should I be doing, running into your sword?

Same concept. What else should Yi be doing in a teamfight if not cleanup after you've spent your CC? This is what he's always done.

50%? That's absurd. Usually it's 80-90% for master yi

{quoted}

Like come on, at least let tanks be fucking tanks at the very least.

I take it you've never played against a full build vayne? You can't even effectively build armor against her once she has a rageblade, bork, grieves, and max W. If anything in the game melts tanks, it's Vayne.

Also, Yi isn't that great the higher elo he goes. This is because people know how to kill him and counter him. CC on a yi is a death sentence. I mean... Jax.. he isn't nerfed because he isn't even good.

But in all seriousness, any late game hypercarry that gets fed early is going to slaughter everything. End games before they get to late game is the best way to counter them.

I hope you understands how Yi works.

He is a tank buster because:

*If you build HP he shreds it with Bloodrazor+Guinsoo

*If you build armor he does true damage with E.

*So either way, he is meant to beat tanks really hard as are Vayne and Fiora.

All 3 can shred tanks even when behind if they have their powerspikes: Guinsoo or Ravenous for Fiora.

Do I think they have toxic designs that need nerfs? Sure. But as of now(and probably since forever) you don't really complain about them. It's how they work.

Well for how trash his early game is he better be able to do something lol. Imagine if the tank cced him and the team focused him

Yeah, let's nerf Yi and replace him with Maokai, Sejuani and Zac facetanking 5 people, taking no damage and killing squishies because of their high base damage and bullshit CC spam.

Yi is supposed to be a tank killer with his true damage. And as DuskDaUmbreon pointed out, Yi will deal mostly true damage against someone with high armor, since his physical damage is being mitigated.

But it just seems that the boards want the braindead tank meta back in the game. I don't care though since I am done with the game.

Imagine if they added a tank item that turns true damage into ad/ap
