Who Wins
- You dominate pre-6 through superior base stats, sustain from Q, and burst trades with W stun.
- Post-6 you still win 1v1s if you manage fury properly and don't let Yi get multiple auto resets off his R.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading is E in → W (empowered if possible) → Q → auto → E out, using the stun duration to guarantee your damage.
- Always try to trade when you have 50+ fury to maximize W stun duration and Q healing.
Wave Control
- Push early levels to establish lane priority and deny Yi farm, but be careful of overextending without vision.
- After level 6, maintain a slow push or freeze near your tower to force Yi to overextend for CS.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste your E dash aggressively without tracking the enemy jungler, as Yi players often coordinate ganks.
- Never fight Yi in extended trades when he has R up and you're low on fury, as his DPS will eventually outscale your burst.
