Unrelated note but I still don't know how to link Champions, items, or abilities on this site. Still want to know so I can refine my posts on here.

Related: Hard CC really is the only counter. Even building items like a Thornmail won't stop Yi if he builds more Life Steal (Which if you're like me, you will), or opts for an MR item like Scimitar to reduce it's MR damage.

However Yi can counter the Hard cc with Clense/Scimitar/viel, and given he only needs boots, Phantom Dancer, and his ult to hit 2 AS, it wouldn't be a surprise at all to see him run with a hydra, IE, PD, botrk/BT and finish off with Viel or Scimitar for a bit of survival/counter to hard cc. Just food for thought.
