@RiotBalanceTeam: Yi in Low elo

MikeyRage·9/1/2017, 11:25:49 AM·2 votes·963 views

This is something I've been thinking about a lot how good yi really is in low elo. I get why your scared to buff yi he has an insanely high pickrate and still gets to be around 50%winrate in bronze?? I think that's more because he's one of the first junglers anyone learns "being easy" that people who are bad can still keep around 50% winrate, but if they aren't meant to be higher you wont climb with him (unless you are meant to be there) anyway lets look at the stats

ill break it down on to separate posts to make it easier on the eyes

Even high elo yi players are apparently only getting 54% winrates at lower elos so I'm pretty sure how much he stomps is way over hyped he's not even ranked high at all in low elo sorry for the long post

Jungle yi is a free carry to gold. So long as your team isn't running a soup kitchen, you can just farm and split push all game.

Your team will whine and say things like "wtf yi, fight with us", but remember, just ignore them while you win the game.

Sooo he's balanced in low elo and requires mastering him to climb with?

I dont see the problem.

It's actually less of a problem with him and more of a problem with low elos not knowing how to handle him.

I've played literally over 10k games of League, I've gone against people of every elo. ... Actuallly i dont remember if I've gone against Challengers I think Master is the highest i've faced.

I can tell you after a ton of experience-- low elos do not know how to both Meditate AA reset and Alpha Strike properly. Typically they know one or the other-- or neither. If they do then their teamfight judgment is complete ass, and it often is anyways regardless.

That shit is really abusable. Like, hard.
