3 Minute Master Yi Guide - A Guide for League of Legends

Got 3 minutes spare? Why not take a quick look at how to play Master Yi Jungle!

Master Yi is an old school champion who is incredibly easy to play! His game plan is simple, farm hard until your right clicks destroy anything and everything before you! When he's not running at 700 movement speed towards his enemies he's using his W and Q to outplay his enemies!

Passive: Keep hitting to hit more
Q: Brief invincibility + hit more
W: Heal and make the hurting hurt less (also hit more after you finish)
E: Make the hurting hurt more
R: Hit even faster and say "nuh-uh" to slowing effects

Usually I’m impressed that you can fit everything in 3 minutes, this time I’m surprised it took all 3 😂

[kamilsowka]

I think no champion fears crowd control effects more than Master Yi

[ihmomjokes]

for the combo section you forgot to mention how to clear jungle asap.
since yi attacks twice every 4th attack, prime the E on the third attack so you'll get to use the passive twice in 5 seconds.
also use q just before the jungle is about to attack without cancelling your auto attack
that is all

Master Yi is what got me to try out League and he is a comfort pick for me. I have expanded with other champions and lane role but Jungle Yi is always my favorite

[bigsmoke]

everytime i get stuck on a minion and path straight into a Sett W, everytime i fail to weave in an auto attack to proc phase rush and now get eaten by darius, everytime teemo blinds me and almost kills me for trying to get the cannon under my own turret,
i look to my master yi just jungeling some raptors getting ready to pentakill later on. it looks like heaven.

these videos have taught me more than any of my batshit crazy draven teammates

[francisfalgui]

Easy to use, but rewarding to master.


I don't pick him, but I appreciate you don't have to pick a champ with a 4-year learning curve just to get those outplays and MVP moments.

[Sonny_h]

Imo if playing master yi feels easy you havent unlocked his full potential... he has many champion specific mechanics which give him a high skill ceiling

[Circurose]

Might play him because I like his Eternal Sword skin.

[Freeunner]

As a yi player. Save ur q for skill shot abilities or execution, I wouldn’t build rage blade because it’s bugged atm so go dusk blade instead. Flash is good for surprising the enemy or I can run ghost for more movement speed. Try to be the last person in on team fights or you will be focused 😂

[Elvynna]

Me who went Evelynn mid bc Jungling makes me so slow to level up:I think I need Grass to answer the guide for Jungling

[kiraxalex]

Would you do akshan top guide in the near future?

[rageguyyyaa]

in the good old days master yi was everyones meta pick for jungle however time changes everything

[kcpter]

Is Kraken not in the Yi build anymore?

[Lucas-iwmv]

He isn’t countered by CC. He is countered by Burst.

[ymn]

why should i get rageblade it has 30 ability power and ap doesnt matter in master yi

[elijobe]

Me going 0/9 kindred: reads a guide then goes 7/0

[hayden]

Forget Master Yi jungle, where is my Leona top?

[MonkeyDRuffy-emvn]

IMO u should have mentioned the auto attack reset on w because there an insane amount of situations that gives u the ledge to hard carry games
And talon is definitely not a good matchup for yi:
Talon has burst which in itself is bad for yi but yi can’t even cancel the burst with w cuz it’s dealt over 2 seconds. And talon can go invisible which is bad for u cuz u can’t focus him down in a fight because u won’t get ur ult resets from him when he turns invisible
And pls never buy titanic on yi
It suck’s
Full clearing every game is also a low elo trap, don’t do that if u want to get better
And in tf If u can catch Someone of the enemy team out of position, don’t wait for him to get back to his mates cuz they have cc, he is out of position and u will burst him down before his mates come(if he is not a tank)
Everything else tho isn’t wrong even tho there are more nuances to it
