Statistical Matchup Analysis

Master Yi dominates the meta (11th most popular, 5.0% pick rate) and regularly clashes with Udyr (1.7% pick rate). Understanding this common matchup forms the foundation of consistent gameplay for one of jungle's current powerhouses. Surprising upset: Despite Master Yi's higher tier rating, Udyr wins 51.0% of encounters. This suggests Udyr's kit specifically counters Master Yi's playstyle, overriding general meta strength - approach this matchup with extra caution. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Lethal Tempo + Triumph combination (67.1% win rate) plus optimal itemization Blade of The Ruined King, Guinsoo's Rageblade, Death's Dance, and Berserker's Greaves boosts your chances from 49.0% to 64.1% - potentially game-changing.

Survive and scale: Master Yi faces both matchup (48.99%) and farming disadvantages (5.91 vs 6.24/min). With a 0.33 CS/min deficit, prioritize safe farming and jungle assistance. Damage doesn't equal wins: Master Yi outputs more damage (750 vs 730/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Complete dominance by Udyr: leads in both matchup win rate (51.0%) and KDA (2.60 vs 2.10, 40th vs 63rd place). Master Yi players need exceptional preparation to overcome this counter-pick.

    Master Yi tips:

    • If you're in a lane against ranged players, leveling up Meditate can allow you to stay in the lane longer and gain levels faster than they will.
    • Wuju Style is very strong early for last hitting minions.
    • Try using Alpha Strike on a minion in front of an enemy champion so you are placed at a safe distance at the end of the spell.

    Playing Against Udyr

    • Udyr has limited ranged options, try to keep distance.
    • After using the more powerful, Awakened version of an ability, Udyr cannot Awaken other abilities for some time.
