Master Yi Matchups Overview

Master Yi General information

Master Yi tips and tricks

Focus on farming up a storm in the early game. Get as much gold and XP as quickly as you can so you get your Ultimate HighlanderR quickly.

Solo objectives like the Dragon or Rift Herald when your allies have priority nearby.

Avoid being trigger happy with your Alpha StrikeQ. You can use it to dodge skill shots and hard CC, so try to time it appropriately in those sort of scenarios.
