Playing against Master Yi
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
1
Hard CC (stun, knockup, suppress) is the only way to stop Master Yi — save a CC to shut him down.
2
Master Yi is very weak in early game jungle: invade him and contest his camps early.
3
Don't run away alone: Yi with R is faster than you and immune to slows. Group up instead.
4
Point-and-click CC is the best counter because he can't dodge it with Q if it's instant.
