Gameplay

Master Yi is a very unique carry as he doesn't exponentially benefit from fully unlocking Classes or Origins, but is most effective in a team composition which provides part of both his class and origin buffs, together with upgrading him and his allies to 3 Stars, by slow-rolling (rolling gold over 50) at level 7 when possible, as he benefits more from the raw HP and stats than the bonuses that 6 Blademasters or 6 Rebels may offer him. As a melee unit, Master Yi's core items are set in stone to enable him to function regardless of enemy lock-down, Quicksilver enables him to properly deal damage without getting kitted or chain CC'd into death, while Rabadon's Deathcap grants an extreme stat boost in all of Chosen One's scaling that is also amplified by the Rebel bonus. His last items are situational between Hextech Gunblade and Guinsoo's Rageblade, depending if sustain or raw DPS is favorable. Bramble Vest ignores critical hits and gives extra armor, this is situationally good against High AD carries.

Trivia

• Master Yi appears as Chosen Master Yi instead of Original Master Yi due to the skin being best suited for the Rebel origin in his kit.
  • His Rebel origin, use of his Chosen Master Yi skin and the fact that his ability is named Chosen One are all references to the Chosen One in Star Wars.
• His ability is based on a combination of his League of Legends abilities.
  • The increased movement speed effect is based on Highlander.
  • The healing-over-time effect is based on its icon is borrowed from Meditate.
  • The true damage on-hit effect is based on Wuju Style.

Gameplay

Yi is considerate one of the hardest carries in the game, As an On-hit oriented Blademaster, Guinsoo's Rageblade is considerate his Core item, after that is recommended to build him tanky with items such a Dragon's Claw and Warmog's Armor to keep him alive for as long as possible. Rapid Firecannon is also a good option due to his fragile melee nature.

Alternative builds include turning him into a Berserker, granting him the ability to cleave through teams with ease.

Out of all Mystic, Nami complements him the most, as she can empower his already strong On-hit auto attacks and set-up initionations for him with her Tidal Wave.

Trivia

• Master Yi appears as Assassin Master Yi instead of Original Master Yi due to the skin being best suited for the Shadow element in his kit.
• His ability is based on his League of Legends ability combo of Meditate into Wuju Style and Highlander.
