Master Yi Matchups Overview
Master Yi General information
Master Yi tips and tricks
When laning against ranged champions, try and limit how much chip damage you take from them via auto-attacks.
Use your Q to dodge incoming skill shots and CC by enemy laners. You can also use your
Q to dodge tower shots as well.
Keeping the wave closer to your side of the lane in the very early game will allow you to pick up farm and potentially all-in the enemy. If you’re constantly pushing, you will find it hard to all-in an enemy.
