Shyvana should leverage her very high clear speed to outpace Master Yi's farming and secure early dragon control.
Prioritize full clears and objective setups over early fights, as Shyvana's early pressure is low and Master Yi can punish risky invades.
Use dragon-form power spikes to establish mid-game dominance and control teamfights around objectives.
Jungle Plan
Execute fast full clears focusing on camps that lead toward early dragon setups when bot and mid lanes hold priority.
Contest Scuttle Crab and river vision only with lane priority to avoid losing tempo to Master Yi's counter-jungling.
Use Shyvana's objective control strength to force trades around dragon and Rift Herald when Master Yi is farming elsewhere or after successful counter-ganks.
Danger windows
Early isolated river fights before Shyvana reaches dragon-form are risky due to Master Yi's reset potential and mobility.
Low-health clears or forced smite fights near objectives can be punished by Master Yi's chase and resets; avoid these without lane support.
Master Yi becomes significantly more dangerous post-item spikes and level 6; respect his ability to clean up fights if crowd control is unavailable.
Early game
Start with a full clear to reach dragon-form and item windows faster than Master Yi.
Avoid early river fights unless lanes have clear priority to support, as Master Yi's early dueling is risky but can punish isolated fights.
Contest first Scuttle only when nearby lanes can move first and provide support for counter-ganks.
Power spikes
Level 6 unlocks Shyvana's dragon-form (R), enabling stronger objective control and skirmish presence; use this to pressure dragon fights.
Master Yi's level 6 (R) increases his reset and chase threat; avoid engaging before key crowd control is committed.
Shyvana's first completed item boosts her clear speed and dueling, allowing safer invades and objective contests before Master Yi's item spike.
Win conditions
Convert faster clear speed and dragon-form power spikes into early dragon control to deny Master Yi scaling resources.
Use vision and lane priority to set up counter-ganks and deny Master Yi's tempo and resets.
Leverage strong mid-game teamfights in dragon-form to control objectives and snowball leads before Master Yi reaches full carry potential.
