How to win lane as Aurora against Master Yi · 48.47% win rate over 163 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Aurora | Aurora owns level 1 — your Q pokes him freely and he has no tool to trade back with. |
| Level 2 | Aurora | Level 2 stays yours: passive spirit damage stacks onto every exchange and keeps him bleeding. |
| Level 3 | Aurora | Level 3 is yours outright — full kiting poke plus the W blink, and he still can't punish any of it. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | By 4 his Wuju Style points bring the lane to even — trades turn honest, so keep your distance discipline. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 stays a skill stage: your R is a zoning fight tool rather than a duel threat, so nothing shifts the 1v1 yet. |
| First item | Master Yi | Master Yi takes first item: Wuju true damage out-DPSes your squishy frame the moment he sticks. Kite or leave. |
| Two+ items | Master Yi | Late is his in any duel — Highlander resets plus true damage delete you on contact. Zone him in teamfights and never sidelane alone. |
Own the early lane. Your Q pokes him at 1 with zero reply, passive spirit damage stacks the level 2 trades your way, and level 3 completes the kite: poke, reposition, W away from anything he tries. Shove when he's low, deny CS, and bank the lead — his items are coming.
