Read from Renekton's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Master Yi.
This is Renekton's own plan; across 428 pooled games the lane is leaning Master Yi.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Renekton | Your level-1 Q fury heal and early trade stats beat him outright before he has tools. |
| Level 2 | Renekton | Ruthless Predator lands at 2 and cancels Meditate outright — his only sustain, flat 10s. |
| Level 3 | Renekton | At 3 your Slice-and-Dice mobility lets you win every trade you choose to take. |
| Levels 4-5 | Renekton | Through 4-5 Alpha Strike is an 18-20s cooldown — once it is spent he has no escape at all. |
| Level 6 | Master Yi | Once Highlander and his approaching item arrive at 6, the kill pressure flips to him. |
| First item | Master Yi | With his first item Wuju Style's true damage ignores your armour and he out-DPSes any straight fight. |
| Two+ items | Master Yi | Late he out-scales you hard and R resets snowball him through you — answer with grouping, not duels. |
You beat him outright for four levels: Q fury healing wins level 1, the W stun locks him at 2 and cancels Meditate's channel outright, Slice-and-Dice takes every trade at 3, and Alpha Strike's 18-20s cooldown leaves him no out at 4-5. Chunk him every wave and call your jungler now.
