League of Legends Champion Master Yi Critical Strike Item Build Guide
Master Yi is fragile, but he has the potential to do major damage. However, in order to tap into his full potential in League of Legends, you have to build him out correctly.
One way to accomplish this is by getting items that increase your percentage of landing a critical strike. Critical strikes, when they occur, deal double your base attack damage. So, if you deal 200 damage, and you critically strike, that number goes up to 400.
By combining critical strike with attack speed, along with Master Yi's natural elusiveness, you can create a champion that does incredibly high amounts of damage to any enemies on the battlefield.

Infinity Edge provides you with 80 damage, 25 percent critical strike chance, and increases total critical strike damage by 50 percent. This item should be a staple in your inventory if you choose to rely heavily on critical strikes.
2. Statikk Shiv
Statik Shiv doesn't add any base attack damage, but it boosts your attack speed by 40 percent, your chance to critically strike by 20 percent, and your movement speed by six percent. Plus, its passive deals 100 damage to up to four targets simultaneously whenever it's allowed to charge up (it only takes several seconds). The passive can critically strike as well.
By combining Statikk Shiv with Infinity Edge, you already have a 45 percent chance of landing a critical strike. You're not done yet though.
Phantom Dancer gives you 30 percent critical strike chance, upping it to a total of 75 percent with this build. So, on paper at least, three out of four attacks will be critical strikes.
On top of that, PD increases your attack speed by 50 percent, and your movement speed by five percent. Now you're cooking with gas.
Youmuu's Ghostblade has a few attractive attributes. It increases your armor pentration by 20, reduces your cooldowns by 10 percent, increases critical strike by 15 percent, and grants you 30 attack damage.
Plus, its active ability gives you an extra 40 percent attack speed, and 20 percent movement speed for six seconds. Using this ability virtually ensures that you'll be able to chase down any fleeing enemies.
That's incredible. The extra health this item gives you also boosts your survivability, which is always welcome, especially when it comes to fragile champions like Master Yi.
Ravenous Hydra doesn't have any critical strike properties, but it does a lot of damage, and will help you stay alive in battles longer.
It gives you 75 attack damage, doubles your health regeneration, and provides 12 percent life steam. Plus, its active lets you deal total damage to enemies immediately around you while you're not even directly attacking them. The ability lets you deal as little as 60 percent of your total damage at the maximum range for this ability, which is 400. That's still a lot, to say the least.
These boots will give you increased movement and attack speed. On Master Yi, they're a must.
In conclusion, this build gives you a 90 percent chance to land critical strikes. This, combined with the life steal from Ravenous Hydra, and the attack speed from Phantom Dancer, Statikk Shiv, Youmuu's Ghostblade, and Beserker's Greaves, ensures that you'll be controller a super-fast grand master of death. Enjoy!
