Also Malphite has a lot more difficulty with Yi than against other auto attackers, since Yi is immune to both of Malphite's slows and can bypass all of his armor with true damage. However, Malphite's ult is the bane of Yi during a teamfight.

Generally, the reason why Yi is considered for jungle most of time is because Sated Devourer is such an enormous asset for him that it is too good to pass up. However, nothing really impedes you from trying out top lane Yi.

Master Yi used to be a great counterpick to old Kassadin (that with silence), but this is no longer necessary, since Kassadin has been reworked and then nerfed, there are a lot more champions that can beat him, even AP ones.
