To counter Master Yi, draft a jungler who can hit him first and hold him still, then deny him the early resets his whole game plan depends on. On current Emerald+ data the best counters are Elise, Rammus and Wukong<\/strong>, and the single purchase that matters most is Plated Steelcaps<\/strong>, backed by Randuin’s Omen once he has two crit items. Below: why those picks work, the cooldown windows where he is exposed, and the popular “counters” that lose to him more often than they win.<\/p>\n

Jungle matchups usually matter less than lane ones (the pillar guide explains why jungle counter-picks matter less than lane ones<\/a>), but Yi is the exception, because his whole win condition is one mechanic: chaining kills into resets. Break the chain and you’re left with a 175-range melee champion who has no hard CC.<\/p>\n
