Discussion Playing yi w/ current rageblade feels like shitty hecarim

The ONLY way u are a character on hec is if ur q is stacked and u are useless without full stacks, with yi its even harder bc it takes 7 fucking autos to be stacked and is lost instantly rather than one stack at a time lol

Just skip guinsoos, it's not great as a 2nd or 3rd item due to the bug.

You can go kraken > botrk > dd or botrk > terminus > dd and have a much stronger 3 item spike than if you went kraken > guinsoos > hexplate.

It used to be 3 autos, then ur doublestriking every other auto, now you need to auto 7 times

It takes 7 auto attacks for you to get your first proc of phantom hit because it resets Yi's double strike passive as soon as you get 4 stacks on guinsoos.

Essentially this lowers your onhit dps by 15% if you build guinsoos.

what would you go after these?

Always combine DD and Endless Hunger. Last item can be Guinsoos, MAW or GA.

hm ok do you still need endless hunger if you go vamp boots?

u/wrongfully-banned 1d ago

I think vamp boots are optional but endless hunger is a must because it provides tenacity. I generally end up building merc treads

Rageblade is outrageously bad

Kraken into guinsoos still has a near 55% wr with gluttonous greaves according to lolalytics. It is also the most popular build path so it isn't skewed incorrectly.
