How to win lane as Lillia against Master Yi · 50% win rate over 172 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Lillia | Your Blooming Blows speed and Watch Out! poke kite him helplessly at level 1. |
| Level 2 | Lillia | At 2 your mobility and burst still keep him at range and losing the trades. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3 turns skill-based — his Alpha Strike engages can punish you if you overextend. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | At 4-5 it hinges on him dodging Watch Out! and you respecting his all-in — a skill window. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | At 6, whether he eats or avoids Lilting Lullaby decides the fight — execution either way. |
| First item | Master Yi | With his first attack-speed item he catches you the moment you stop kiting and deletes you. |
| Two+ items | Master Yi | Late, Highlander resets and attack speed let him stick through your mobility and out-scale you. |
Feast early: at 1-2 your passive speed and Watch Out! poke torture a melee champion with no answers, so chunk him off every CS. From 3 his Alpha Strike buys him engages and dodge-frames — keep poking, but always with W or the river exit ready, because overextending is now punishable.
