On Yi I have a strange build, but I have found it unusually successful. I have discovered that it is nearly impossible for a sustained physical damage dealer (there are some exceptions to this rule) to 1v1 him even without armor items. More often than not I find myself dying like a bitch to magic damage dealers while trying to get to the enemy carry. So to account for this I build Merc treads, Wit's End, Hex Drinker, and Banshee's Veil. Intersperse a Wriggle's lantern somewhere in there, replace your hex drinker with a harder damage item late game like BT or IE, and if you get far enough in the game to build a Phantom Dancer, build that. It may sound unorthodox, but this build is absolutely frightening to go against in a lot of cases. I choose Cleanse and Ghost, Flash, or Exhaust depending on the situation. If mobility is an issue, Ghost/flash, if you want to focus on annihilating the enemy carry, Exhaust.
