as i said a while back, building attack speed gives him a crazy amount of power. It's all because of Q honestly, with how it scales on attack speed.

The more Qs out the more damage and tornados, so the natural thing to do is build some of that attack speed up. While crit is nice, it is less favored overall then attack speed due to the crit damage reduction affecting him all the time. Overall, he deals one of the least damage per hit of all the melee carries, but he's got far more utility than most if not all of them.

In a ranked game, would you choose master yi, or a yasuo in team fights? One contributes spil pushing and damage, while the other brings aoe knock ups and follow ups to knock up teams.
