Yi is actually pretty versatile when it comes to his first item. He certainly does the most damage with Devourer, sated or not, and while Bork is overall the better item for taking down virtually anything and anyone (and better for multi-kills), Youmuu's is a much faster option that also has the benefit of being a better gap-closer, escaping tool, and attack speed steroid, much earlier on, which also makes it great for playing Yi as a classic assassin, to get in and out of a situation quickly. It also looks pretty neat, because Highlander stacks very nicely with it, so he just rockets in and out.

You can also get both, of course, which will make you an unstoppable death machine, assuming you're playing the kind of Yi that enters a teamfight fashionably late while the enemies all have their crowd control skills down. You will tear through everything and anything, no matter how fed or tanky they are.
