Master Yi vs Lee Sin

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Focus on controlling jungle tempo by maximizing clear speed and avoiding early river fights against Lee Sin's strong invade threat.
Prioritize scaling through efficient farming and use reset potential post-level 6 to clean up fights and secure objectives.

Jungle Plan

Full clear toward item spikes while tracking Lee Sin's path to avoid early fights and punish overextensions.
Contest Scuttle only when nearby lanes have priority to avoid Lee Sin's early skirmish power.
Cross-map camps when Lee Sin pressures river to maintain tempo and deny him free farm and objectives.

Danger windows

Beware Lee Sin's level 3-4 invade window where he can outduel and punish low-health clears.
Avoid isolated river fights without vision as Lee Sin's mobility and burst can quickly punish you.
Be cautious around objective setups when smite is down or your team lacks vision to prevent Lee Sin's disruptive (R) plays.

Early game

Start on your strong side for a fast clear and secure first Scuttle before Lee Sin can contest.
Avoid early river skirmishes unless you have vision and lane priority to prevent Lee Sin's level 3 invade.
Use camp sequencing to counter-invade when Lee Sin commits to his first clear path and his key cooldowns are down.

Power spikes

Spike at level 6 with (R) to chase reset targets and secure objectives after enemy CC is used.
Respect Lee Sin's level 3 full kit spike by avoiding isolated fights and invading only with lane priority.
Punish Lee Sin's cooldowns on (Q) and (W) to win skirmishes and force him off camps before your item completion.

Win conditions

Convert superior clear speed and camp tempo into early dragon and Rift Herald control by denying Lee Sin access.
Use counter-jungling and vision control to starve Lee Sin of resources and force him into defensive paths.
Leverage (R) in mid-to-late game teamfights to access backline targets and snowball leads from successful skirmishes.
