Because by adding AD scaling to Master Yi is rather problematic since it will destroy AP Yi because there is a large sector of the community that likes AP Yi.

And let me explain if you don't understand the connection between the two. Currently, Master Yi has zero AD scaling, but he does have Wuju Style which grants his 35 bonus AD passively, 70 bonus AD while active, and 105 when getting a kill while it is active.

Now, if Alpha Strike had a respectable bonus AD scaling, let's say 100%, you would have to expect at least a nerf of 70 base damage on Q to offset Wuju Style alone, but then now you will also have to offset the possibility of him grabbing AD from other sources so his mid game damage isn't broken, so that could range around 40-100 extra base damage lost, but let's just 70 to be somewhat in the average.

That alone is a 140 base damage nerf to AP Yi just to add AD scaling. Now, if you want to add less scaling to prevent abuse, now the question falls, is there even a strong point in having weak AD scaling when most players will only grab around 200 AD at best.

This is just my take on things though, but I hoped you liked it.
