Master Yi

Master Yi has no early CC and Alpha Strike (Q) untargetability is short. Bel'Veth wins the early jungle skirmishes before he reaches the Highlander (R) plus Wuju Style (E) power spike, then converts the lead into objectives.

The Hextech Ultimatum (R) arena lock prevents Meditate (W) channel from saving him, and Precision Protocol (Q2) true damage executes through Highlander (R). Hookshot (E) knockup cancels Alpha Strike (Q) mid-dash.

Pre-6 ganks at level 3 with Parallel Convergence (W) + Phase Dive (E) + Timewinder (Q) catch Master Yi while he farms camps. Meditate (W) channel gets interrupted by the W stun, snowballing the gold lead Ekko needs by minute 14.

Master Yi cannot duel before Highlander (R) is online. Elise level-3 invade with Volatile Spiderling (W) plus Neurotoxin (Q) chunks him while he farms camps, and Cocoon (E) stun interrupts Meditate (W) channel for the kill.

Master Yi scales linearly with farm but cannot punish Fiddle's pre-6 farm window. Once Crowstorm (R) flanks from fog, Highlander (R) chase cannot escape the Reap (E) silence zone, and Bountiful Harvest (W) out-sustains Wuju Style (E) burst.

Body Slam (E) stun stops the Alpha Strike (Q) reset chain mid-dash, and Explosive Cask (R) knocks him off the carry during Highlander (R) movement-speed window. Meditate (W) channel is interruptible — one Barrel Roll (Q) hit cancels the heal.

Hallowed Mist (W) denies the Alpha Strike (Q) target lock during the all-in; he commits, eats the Snip Snip! (Q) true damage cone in mist, and has no second escape because Highlander (R) move-speed cannot outrun A Thousand Cuts (P) DOT.

Friend of the Forest (P) grove mechanic skips camp fights entirely; while Master Yi grinds Double Strike (P) autos on monsters, Ivern is already shielding lanes with Triggerseed (E) by level 5. Rootcaller (Q) locks Yi mid-Alpha Strike (Q) chain on the return cast.

Master Yi wants 3 items before he activates — Kindred mark-hunts his jungle and chunks him at level 2. Mounting Dread (E) slow holds him during Meditate (W) channel, and Wolf's Frenzy (W) plus auto chain shreds him before Highlander (R) speed kicks in.

Sonic Wave (Q) plus Resonating Strike (Q2) chunk Master Yi pre-6 before Wit's End comes online; Dragon's Rage (R) kicks him off your carry, denying Highlander (R) takedown cooldown refunds on Q/W/E.

Nether Grasp (R) locks Master Yi in place for 2.5s and ignores Highlander (R) slow immunity because suppression is a separate CC type. Call of the Void (Q) silence cancels Wuju Style (E) toggle and Malefic Visions (E) DOT spreads while Yi is locked.

Frenzying Taunt forces Master Yi to basic-attack into Defensive Ball Curl reflect, and Wuju Style true damage autos feed the magic-damage reflect at maximum rate. Alpha Strike multi-target dash cannot save him during the taunt window,

Void Rush goes untargetable for the cast window, dodging Master Yi's Alpha Strike re-emerge auto and denying his Wuju Style true-damage burst. Max-Fury Furious Bite true damage then deals damage through Meditate channel heal,

Impale (R) locks Master Yi in place and drags him out of position, ignoring Highlander (R) slow immunity because suppression is a separate CC type. Shattered Earth / Upheaval (Q) terrain pillars block Alpha Strike (Q) bounce paths and Ixtal's Impact (E) stuns Yi mid-dash.

Master Yi commits Highlander R for the move-speed and slow-immunity steroid that his entire fight depends on. Tahm Devour R swallows him mid-Highlander, the steroid timer keeps burning while he is stomached,

Yi's Meditate W channel heal gets interrupted by Pillar of Ice E blocking his Alpha Strike Q re-engage path. Subjugate R steals the Armor that Wuju Style E true damage cannot regenerate, Highlander R move speed cannot pass through the Pillar wall,

Master Yi Alpha Strike (Q) only dashes to enemies after clearing the jungle, so Volibear Thundering Smash (Q) plus level 3 invade lands the first-auto stun before Yi can Alpha out. Frenzied Maul (W) double bite chunks him before Highlander (R) attack speed window opens.
