People is still calling me a noob

Hi, Its me. Blaze! Remember me? Well i've wrote some stuff about this before but i still feel like writing more, ok so I main Yi. As a Yi player you would like to get into the late game ASAP. For the reasons that i will state now.

  1. Master Yi is a Late Game Hyper Carry
  2. Yi does no damage early game
  3. You need items to be effective
  4. Does not have great gank potential early game even after lv 6
  5. If he gets invaded a lot you'll have a hard time as Yi is a farm heavy champ.

OK. I listed what Yi is in the early game. But they know that Yi is a late game champ, they just don't give a damn. Everytime i won't gank is because they are pushing and for some reason whenever they die and i'm at btm i get this "???????". For some reason they want me to gank but mastery has no damage and they don't even have good cc. They just keep saying things like. "Nub is Nub. Cannot change", "Nub" and "Yi useless?". They just keep saying that and they said that i'm only talk and i'm not good at Yi or rather being a jungler.

There would just be waves of hate from my mid laner, and my bot laners. My top laner just keeps quite and stays out of it. Then when there is a team fight in the early game, i would just not join. You might have different opinions but i've fed a couple people more than enough and i've told myself enough is enough and that i would just afk farm, i will join small skirmishers but never a full blown team fight until i get to late game. Then eventually late game come around.

From me being a Yi that is apparently "only talk" can carry the game do the most damage even if I build FULL TANK. From not needing me to the point where they need me in every team fight if not, they would just die. I know this might sound like bragging but I just wanna get this out of my system.

Ok now for the conversation through out the game and i've muted them so there will be a lot to talk about still. There is a Veigar, Yasuo, Kennen, Soraka and Jinx on my team.

Before camps are up Me: Ok guys, i might not gank a lot because i have no CC and i need to go to the late game in order to do damage so i might afk farm more than ganking. Team: Ok.

After bot lane died Veigar: OMG. Yi can you gank, your all just talk. Yasuo: Ya, Yi is just talk act like pro but talk only.

After several minutes Yasuo: Yi useless? Can't gank we team fight no help wtf is this jg rpt. Me to team: Hey i'm late game i mean come the f on you fed xz and he is now 23/5 and olaf is for gods sake 23/1 who more nub now?

I said that because of how frustrated i am towards my team so after that i found myself being toxic so i dc'd and recconect to clear the chat then mute them so i don't have to listen to their BS so tell me your thoughts in the comment section below. You can also elaborate on what I should not have said and some other opinions, I am also free to suggestions so feel free. But don't pose any obscene pictures are say swear words, but you can hint at them.

you can gank early.... you are more effective the more items/gold you get yes ( all champs are) but in order to get more gold and lvls ganks which = kills help that and the sooner you can get to your 3-4 item the more of a threat you are...

also picking yi into a team with no cc on them so they cant set up the ganks for you is a bad team comp to begin with... he is meant to be a hyper carry... so his mid needs to have some cc top needs to be a tank/engage cc champ and ideally support as a secondary to top

if you ideally get an adc with a bit of root or cc , ashe ult and slow, varus e and ult... sivir ult for speed boost + yi ult etc he is way more effective at being able to get into fights.

and you ideally shouldnt pick yi into a team with a lot of hard cc and burst ... cuz you are just gonna get blown up

True, true i'll accept it when i'm wrong. But i would like to add that Yasuo dosen't EQ i don't think that would have screwed up the gank but, i have no decent cc. The only CC that i can get close too is a Slow from ice born or Rylais which i don't recommend, because he is an AD champ. But because this is normals SoloQ and we don't get a lot of communication in that queue so i think that is also party of the problem and some of my problems is that i didn't do good as a Jungler, i am an OK jungler but not a good one.

Yeah, you're kinda looking at this all wrong. Instead of focusing on trying to gank more than the enemy jg, why not focus on getting vision on him at all times (whether it be warding one side of his jg to nullify the shroedinger's cat idea, or by simply stealing his camps entirely to force him onto one side of the map). While yes, a jg "can" influence the map with ganks, making the map a 4v4 can be as equal if not more beneficial as it forces each lane into a skill matchup where (with the right teammates) you'll just win off that. Also, Yi isn't necessarily a lategame character, as with the right runes (I usually just go for flat AD and start with 86 excluding items) your dueling potential early isn't terrible compared to things like xin/lee).

i wasnt trying to say you are bad or anything of the nature... just providing a different point of view about the situation and maybe provide some food for thought that might help you in some why when it comes to your game play.

but in soloQ people dont play for team, or pick for team etc... ideally you wanna be on your best champ and do what you think is best to win... and nothing wrong with the idea of that. but for me as a player who can play 4 roles and have a number of champs for those roles i can play... i always try to pick the best champ i can play for the game... based on role, team comp, and what we are facing. and if its normals and you wanna practice a certain champ and cuz people claim "its only normals" than you see alot of that as well...

but as it comes to yi he is a feast of famine type of champ... basically a melee ad carry assassin... if he gets fed and gets his items he can be a nightmare to deal with in solo Q due to lack of coordination and the other points i brought up. but to me and partly due to the "meta" of early game snowball we are in that he just dont fit very well into it. where most games dont last past 25 mins.

but that is where some of the difference comes into higher levels of play and game concept and lower levels. understanding team comps, win conditions etc .

Really. Well i can't gank if their all pushed up, Yes i can setup for a counter gank but i don't want to i'd rather farm and get to the late game and be more useful then feeding a Xin.

slows are a decent form of CC for yi.

Also, yi can do some pretty sick tower dives. So if your team is pushed up, try one of those instead.
