Playing as Master Yi

  • If you're in a lane against ranged players, leveling up Meditate can allow you to stay in the lane longer and gain levels faster than they will.
  • Wuju Style is very strong early for last hitting minions.
  • Try using Alpha Strike on a minion in front of an enemy champion so you are placed at a safe distance at the end of the spell.

Playing against Master Yi

  • Meditate is an effective method of healing damage over time, but Master Yi is susceptible to coordinated team ganks early in the game.
  • If Master Yi tries to farm with Alpha Strike, hit him a few times so he has to use mana with Meditate to heal.
  • Although Master Yi cannot be slowed while using Highlander, other disables can stop him in his tracks.
