As you might have noticed there is a new strategy involving Kayle top lane and Master Yi jungle. Where the kayle goes full support in order to enable the Yi to carry to his fullest potential. Kayle's build provides +50% healing, 20%-35% attack speed bonus to Yi, 12% damage reduction to Yi, and a nice 18%-30% movement speed buff to Yi along with 250-500 HP heals. On top of that Kayle can ult the master yi to keep him alive longer in fights and the Mikael's will be able to free the Master Yi of threatening debuffs.

Looking for a serious partner to get good at this strategy with and to grind solo queue for some nice cheesy freelo. Currently there are an abundance of players with 97%, 98%, 81% win rates in Diamond elo. Looking for someone that is comfortable on either Master Yi and Kayle and knows how to proficiently play the champion. I can play both champions proficiently and do not care which one I end up playing (although I'd prefer to be the Kayle because organizing Macro play is a bit easier on the less intensive champion).

The general strategy is for Master Yi to full clear his jungle and gank top and take all the CS, then master yi bases and full clears once more and should by then be level 6 (both KAyle and Yi are 6-7 at this point). Yi will come into top lane clear CS and either proceed to dive and kill the enemy top laner, or dive and take tower, or dive (maybe not get kill, but proceed to add pressure). Rinse and repeat until top lane tower is done and the KAyle will try to give the Yi solo gold on the tower. Once that tower is gone the top laner is much more likely to die now because the lane has no tower. KAyle and Yi will continue to push the lane and if the enemy team doesn't bring at least 3 players the Kayle/Yi combo will always win the fight. And if they do bring 3-5 players the enemy team loses pressure on the map and loses objectives. Regardless it's a win win.

Here are some op.gg of people doing this strat: https://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=PWUvze3H9n https://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=Tiny+Orii Don't just look at their rank, but the people they are being placed against.

Wouldn't a full support Kayle lose lane to most tops, especially when you consider her jungler is master yi? I saw something else about this and it seems sketchy and super gimmicky.
