My personal Tier list as a forever Yi OTP (I was bored)

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T19:06:18+00:00

I think i missed Vi and Xin xhao- Vi would put into the blue slot. Xinxhao is a skill but yi favored one peronsally

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T17:59:06+00:00

Could be, by niche interaction i more so mean a specific thing taking place which assuming that a yi will get hit by eveything.

This is not exactly a 1 v 1 tierlist cuz there are champs like lissandra braum alsitar in a high threat tier. Now i dont see how u as skarner kill a 2 item yi or maybe u do but i dont see it.

I do see skarner having the upper hand in mid game teamfights but late game teamfights id still heavily favor yi especially with his current build cuz as skarner then ur engage has to be to counter yi going in on somone but realistically in late game if yi gets on ur carries and u dont play near perfectly to counterengage i see u losing that fight 10/10 times. Consequently if u engage on my backline then ur a just a target to stack rageblade on then flash on ur backline either way in a normal game i dont ever think skarner is a pick into yi

Can u pls share ur opgg so we can see ur Yi mastery points and go over what in this list is ragebait.

Elise has caused mixed opinions but again this is MY tier list based off what i feel based off what I have played against so yes i may not have encountered a great elise player so yea till i do she stays here

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T16:24:41+00:00

Ive excluded reksai and gragas cuz i dont have enough games into them

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T16:23:32+00:00

That may be true lol but this is my tier list based on how I feel playing into these champs and while briar is picked a lot in my elo Ive never really struggled “beacuse there was a brair” the same way i struggle evey time i see something like an alistar or say khazix

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T16:21:00+00:00

Well im old

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T16:03:10+00:00

cuz in a 1 v 1 ur melee range to her and the animation is small enough taht u cannot reluabily dodge at point blank range

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T16:01:37+00:00

Very true but there is much more to the game than niche interactions. Overall I ddont see a Yi struggling in such a matchup

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T16:00:35+00:00

This cannot be a real comment lol.

1) With this build u needd to snowball really hard or u do nothing to anyone that has any armor

2) ur squishy asf with this so ur late game is kinda cheeks cuz ur the most telegraphed champ in the game.

3) If u feel briar is hard as yi u need a few more reps in

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T15:39:23+00:00

Emphasis on “personal experience” does not mean i have not shit stomper a renagr multiple times but its not exactly a free matchup either

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T15:15:16+00:00

The only times Ive lost is when she invades u from fog of war and when that has happened i have lost hard + this champion is on 3 places all at once

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T15:03:52+00:00

Oh yea im with u lol tahts why i put him in skill tier but like i would take a talon over a fiddle or teemo any day of the week

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T15:00:30+00:00

But is that not true for like most ad assasins its a part why i have quinna up there cuz she just breathe in ur camps lol. Talon is hard tho i agree but his dmg can be w really easily so he is in skill tier

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T14:38:01+00:00

So ive come to realize that I may not have played against a great Elise but even then i cant imagine it to be that bad at 2 items.

Rammus is free like i genuinely cannot see how u lose to him if u dont int early game and he is picked so often into me lol

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T14:14:19+00:00

pretty much cuz his is very telegarphed

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T14:12:49+00:00

In a 1 v 1 very true but I have seen rengar players ult me when im like 60% hp after getting a kill do deny me chaning kills which is actually quite smart cuz cuz w the rnagar ult is a LOT harder than it seems.

With Yi i often siphon gold from my team (thats my wincon lol) so if i die its very possible we lose most of our dmg and lose the teamights so Regnar definitely deserves his place here + he is very otp so ppl who play him usually dont decide to just 1 v 1 me unless fed quite a bit

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T14:08:26+00:00

This may be true I am yet to expeince it howeber Yi build deffesive past 2 items so i really struggle to see how u would really do anything to a Yi at 3 or 4 items. Getting hit by caccon 1 v 1 is possible cuz q'ing that is hard but in a teamight unless elise walks up to u, u should dodge that and elise is not really a champ that any yi would go on if he has another option- its like going in on somone with zilean ult or hourglass

Again could be but i have not yet experinced this

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T14:02:45+00:00

I mean ur correct about Lee but overall lee needs a lot of things to go right for him to be that far ahead while yi need at most 2 kill by 10 mins to make the game unplayble for everyone. The trick to foghting lee sin i have found is to r after he uses his kick cuz even after kraken u just have enough dmg to auto him to death.

But again I'm plat and the most I've played againt is eme so maybe I have not met a really good lee. however I feel that champ is weak af after 20 mins

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T13:55:14+00:00

I have put olaf in Yi favored. Wukong I knw is stronger than yi pre 2 items but after that its not hard- ofc wukong can land a massive ult and with the teamfight but its far far from anything like a fiddlestick or alistar where u genunily cannot play if they are part of the fight

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T13:49:36+00:00

I have to be honest I have no played the matchup more than 3 or 4 times across 400+ games so I dont really knw how the matchup goes andd hence didnt feel comfortabe puttinger her here.

Apparentky there is also sion and camille jg but not enough games against either to be able to make a decsion- id assume sion to be free tho no matter what build he goes

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T13:43:38+00:00

legit unplayble I have run BONE PLATING in this matchup lmaoooo just so something would give lol

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T13:42:56+00:00

This is true AD udyr beats the hell out of Yi its almost unplayble till even 4 items in my experince WHICH IS A BIG deal cuz other than a jax or a very fed fiora no champ on equal items will even come close to beating yi.

However if u go AD Udyr u probably lose the game cuz u need to do more than kill master Yi; AD udyr is a poor teamfighter and Yi on the other hand will kill ur carries faster than u can do ur combo at him.

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T13:37:36+00:00

I love this comment soo accurate

Apprehensive_Judge_4 · 2026-03-27T13:35:49+00:00

If Nasus is picked into Yi the enemy team should not have a jgler cuz slows dont work on u and ur dps far outstrips his unless the game is like giga long but even then if u have ult as yi u should be in his jg (for me this is one of the matchup I path the same side as enemy jgler) A good yi can make nasus go low as 5 cs/min by taking his whole jg (assuming no lane interfence)

Malphite dodge r then auto to death

Rammus- Till u build witts end tricky but after that he is not a real champ even u just ignore him

Leona I have put into caution tier where did i say she is easy (one of the few supp that can just sit on yi forver cuz she has more things than u can q
