How to win lane as Dr. Mundo against Master Yi · 39.92% win rate over 258 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Dr. Mundo | Dr. Mundo owns level 1 — cleaver poke and regen flatly beat his weak early autos. Chip him for free. |
| Level 2 | Dr. Mundo | Level 2 stays yours: your slow and raw tankiness mean no trade he takes turns a profit. |
| Level 3 | Dr. Mundo | Level 3 is yours — the cleaver still out-values everything his pre-item kit produces. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 go even as his Wuju true damage starts biting through your health stacking. The free lane winds down. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 stays even — Highlander and Meditate let him genuinely contest the Maximum Dosage heal, so ult trades are honest. |
| First item | Master Yi | First item is Master Yi's: true-damage DPS outpaces your regen and ignores every point of HP you stack. Stop soloing him. |
| Two+ items | Master Yi | Two-plus items stay his — true damage kills even a full Mundo because it bypasses everything you build. Fight him with teammates or not at all. |
Bully the weakling phase. Cleaver poke plus your regen beats his feeble early autos, level 2's slow and tankiness make every trade he takes unprofitable, and at 3 the cleaver still out-values his pre-item damage. Chip him off CS relentlessly — the gold and XP you bank here is your entire insurance policy.
