I'd have to say Yasuo, in this match up. Let's explain why, shall we?

Yi is a master of the mystical arts of Wuju... seeing how he uses them, it seems he can use Wuju to move at super-human speeds, and, if he can focus, heal himself. Not only that, but he has the ability to hit twice, somehow... magic sword thing... sword boots? In any case, the point is that his magic is decently obscure, and not extremely powerful. Yasuo, however, has a big sword, years of training, and, though he's been running for years, he's fought almost daily to stay alive. His sword work is near legendary, AND he has the power of the wind. We've found he can make walls of it, use it to shield himself, propel himself with it, or launch it out as a cutting edge. Not only that, but when it comes down to one strike, I would think that the samurai, Yasuo, woud probably take the cake on that with a draw-resheate technique.

Expanding further on it, though, Yi is skilled in Martial Arts as well, which we know from Wukong's Judgement (He had hundreds of clones beat the ever-living crap out of the summoner who was 'judging' him.), and it just goes to show how strong he may be. However, he's also skilled with the sword. Yasuo, on the other hand, has ONLY been trained with the sword. The one way Yi would have a chance over Yasuo would be if he were to disarm him, and even then, knowing Yasuo can control the wind, he could probably just bring his sword back to him.

Altogether, it seems Yasuo is the superior swordsman, his wind style is better for all-around use, the katana is nototrious for a quickdraw style (which Yasuo does... the man sheathes his sword, for crying out loud.), and more than likely is unable to lose his sword.

P.S. Does anyone even read the rules of this? I mean, obviously a few people do, but it's... kind of annoying how so many people say "well ___ could Q ___ and ___'s kit is far superior to ___'s"
