Talk:Master Yi/@comment-96.19.66.211-20120609161323

Master Yi is one of the few hybrids. AP Yi benefits from armor and mid to high ap items. I was playing with a friend who was interested in Yi, and they asked me because I chose to practice with him. Here is what I discovered about Master Yi. Under AP, Master Yi is the perfect bait for quadra and penta kills. Secondly building and AP Yi boost his first 2 abilities, Alpha Strike and Meditate.

At top level for the abilities, Master Yi gets and additional damage from AP useage, and massive heals that goes into the thousands. Master Yi is not a mana friendly champion, so building and Archangles staff is a good investment, Using bezerker grieves or ionan boots fit Yi well for either attack speed or cooldown, respectively. Even in early game, Master Yi can still be very helpful, in using alpha strike to save other players through harrasment.

I play Yi alot, because it is east to hit and run, plus get away from aoe attacks. His alpha strike can get him out of a lot of sticky situations.

Speaking on AD Yi, having fast attack speed with high critical pays off with him and massive lifesteal is a must. Either way you will do good with Yi if you play offensively, defensivly, or just for jun in support for assists. His highlander ability is remarkable, you can spam it as long as you have killed a champion and have the mana for it. Basically as long as you have the mana you can spam all his moves over and over per emeny champion kill.

I hope this helps.
