When he goes 2/12 and is a full item and two levels behind me, but still kills me before i can even half health him, there is a fucking problem.
Not to mention i had 
as one of my items, which should, in theory, make fighting him a lot less one-sided.
redniwediS5 votesThere definitely is a problem, like why were you trying to solo kill the Yi that late into the game? You're playing Lux, if you don't land your binding on him you're in for a very bad time. Someone like Annie can actually fight him, but Lux shouldn't be trying to duel the Yi.

That's pretty much late game nowadays.
Besides if he can survive your cd's then why shouldn't he be able to kill you? That's not a matter of 1v1'ing that's a matter of you not having a frontline.
redniwediS2 votesI didn't say late game, I said that late into the game. Mid game no low CC mage should be trying to fight a Yi. If you miss your bind your item advantage means absolutely nothing.
TiltoverEnforcer4 votesYou were playing Lux. Lux's main combo revolves around her landing her binding. Since Yi can't do anything while he's snared, his best option would be to use his W, which reduces damage by ~50%, if not more (depending on rank).

Rabblerouser1 votesPicking Zhonya's makes me think you're playing a mage which means unless you're playing Kayle or Azir (might have missed a few) you're gated by this thing called ###cooldowns!
However, then you have Yi, which... after a little bit of help from items, can excel in something called ###sustained damage!
This is why Zyras or Brands may not stick in fights forever. You're gated by cooldowns, which means you should be seeking the aid of either a teammate or a nearby tower to help damage the yellow speedster. Yi gets scared the more people that show up.
Mage's damages come in specific windows thanks to cooldowns, whereas Yi and ADCs can literally auto forever until you're dead. If the other comments are correct and you were playing Lux... well... she's definitely cooldown-dependent.
I mean, I still think he shouldn't be getting these buffs he keeps getting but when spreading the knowledge of being gated by cooldowns is important to me. :c

Simple as that.
