Read from Master Yi's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Yorick.
This is Master Yi's own plan; across 239 pooled games the lane is Master Yi-favoured.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Yorick | Yorick's ghouls and Last Rites heal out-trade your bare level-1 kit. |
| Level 2 | Yorick | At 2 his Mist Walkers and cage still bully your single Alpha Strike. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3 evens as your resets let you hop between ghouls. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 stay skill-decided while his sustain matches your ramp. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | At 6 the Maiden makes it a wash until you spike — skill window. |
| First item | Master Yi | First item you burst past ghouls and out-duel Yorick himself. |
| Two+ items | Yorick | By 2+ items his Maiden and ghoul army out-DPS you in sustained fights. |
Yorick out-lanes you levels 1-2: Last Rites (Q) heals him through your Alpha Strike, his Mist Walkers chip you, and Dark Procession can cage you for a free trade, so farm carefully and respect the E wall.
