Read from Master Yi's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Rumble.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Rumble | Rumble's Flamespitter (Q) and shield zone you out at level 1. |
| Level 2 | Rumble | His Electro Harpoon (E) slow and poke keep you off him at level 2. |
| Level 3 | Rumble | At level 3 his full kit still controls the lane spacing. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 turn even as Wuju Style true damage cuts his thin resists now. |
| Level 6 | Master Yi | With Highlander (R) online you sprint past his zone and win the fight. |
| First item | Master Yi | Your first item lets you close his slows and delete him in melee. |
| Two+ items | Master Yi | Late game you shred the CC-light Rumble whenever you reach him. |
Rumble controls levels 1-3: Flamespitter (Q) punishes you for approaching, Electro Harpoon (E) slows and pokes, and his shield keeps him healthy. Sidestep the flame cone, farm from range where you can, and don't get chunked into all-in territory before you scale.
