Master Yi vs Lillia

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Prioritize full clears and item tempo over early fights to reach Master Yi's strong scaling window.
Avoid early river fights against Lillia's sleep CC and high mobility unless your lanes have priority to support.
Focus on clean reset timings and cross-map camp trades to deny Lillia tempo and scaling.

Jungle Plan

Prioritize farming and scaling by pathing around lanes that can follow your ganks or punish Lillia's overextensions.
Contest river objectives only when your lanes have priority and Lillia has used her sleep CC, reducing her teamfight threat.
Use cross-map camp trades to deny Lillia jungle tempo and force her into risky pathing before you hit your item spikes.

Danger windows

Avoid early river fights before your first item spike, as Lillia's mobility and sleep CC can punish low-health clears.
Beware of isolated skirmishes where Lillia can use (E) sleep to disable you before you can engage.
Be cautious contesting objectives when Lillia's team is grouped and her global sleep (R) is available to initiate fights.

Early game

Start with a full clear to reach a safe reset timing and item power spike.
Avoid contesting first Scuttle Crab unless nearby lanes have clear priority to back you up.
Track Lillia's pathing and avoid low-health camps where she can punish with her superior clear speed and mobility.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to chase and reset on low-health targets after Lillia commits her sleep CC.
First item spike increases your sustained damage and objective control; keep camp tempo high to reach it safely.
Respect Lillia's power spikes when she has her sleep CC ready, especially around grouped objective fights where she can engage.

Win conditions

Use superior clear speed and reset timing to outscale Lillia and punish her when she overextends or misuses sleep CC.
Convert jungle tempo into objective control by contesting dragon and Rift Herald only when lanes have priority and Lillia's CC is on cooldown.
Focus on cleaning up fights after key enemy crowd control is used, leveraging (Q) and (R) resets to snowball teamfights.
