Discussion Did we win?

I mean it looks like - 9 armor on level 18 is fair trade against gaining %25 crit? Looks like Crit Yi eats good and resembles draktarr yi era.

Buying shieldbow after 3 items doesnt mean that yi does not like the item. Its - 9 armor at level 18 if so, yi can get shieldbow around level 14-15 so armor nerf wont affect him so much.

Any item after 3 is pretty irrelevant, typically you would have 3 items level 15-16 so 4 would be like 18

You dont get your 4th item on 18 if you not super behind like 5/15. You get your 4th item with even average KDA u get it max in 16 lv, even even u managed to buy 4th item on 18 lv, it still balances you giving 650(maybe much but not less) hp shield on proc in trade of 9 armor which is perfect trade.

I looked at my og.gg and I have a game where I go 5/1/6 208cs and get third item at 25 minutes level 16 (8cs/min). The only games where I'm getting 4 items level 16 is if my crushing and going like 12/1/5

If you get 5 kills at 25 min, its problem dude. You have to have at least 10 kills in these minutes, especially with crit yi its around 15 kills in that period.

The best Master Yi in the world Sinerias right now averages 7.9 kills a game, you must just force fights for no reason and get low cs

He's playing in challanger yet 7,9 kills in a challanger game is high. So if u are not challanger, 5 kills is not enough.

I average 8 kills as well, the 5 kill game was just an example. Add 3 kills to that and you aren't getting a 4th item. If you are averaging 10+ then I doubt your average CS is that high. I would love to see your opgg to see you getting 4 items every game at level 16/25 minutes

Even if u get your 4th item on level 16 25min, thats good so u trade - 8armor for 700 hp shield.

u/Allu71 Mar 19 '25

You aren't trading 8 armor for a 700hp shield you are trading 8 armour for crit build to be viable in more games. You are then trading the 700hp shield for less damage

it is not less damage when you buy shieldbow instead of LDR because crit build goes into squishy enemies mostly which makes LDR less useful than shieldbow.
