Every few consecutive basic attack, Master Yi strikes twice.

Ever since Yi gave up the ideals of Wuju style, he's been a terror to Noxian forces. A blade in the night, he strikes at the foes of Ionia with deadly precision. With every whisper of the leaves they shudder, expecting the next moment to be their last.




Hunters use many tools: the bowgun, the rifle, the knife, the mind. Master Yi's tool of choice is a five foot long serrated blade forged from meteoric alloy.

A pupil of a famous martial arts school, Yi has dedicated his life to the purity and art of combat. And yet, in his heart, he knows he is worthy of the fabled sword of jade, and a power beyond mere mortality…

A humble snowman brought to life by the magic of the Poro King, Yi strives to become the most gallant knight in all the land… and with the imminent invasion of Ice King Twitch, he might just get his chance.

The cultists of the Blood Moon have begun a dread metamorphosis, as the boundary between the demon realm and the human world is rapidly erased. Yi is among those first blessed by this new darkness, the demon within his blade arm driving him to ever greater spectacles of violence.

A legendary psychic swordsman and elite leader of the PsyOps unit. Yi is calm, professional, and always gets the job done, making him a terrifying bogeyman among rogue militaries, and a target for those harboring resentment towards the global war machine.

A powerful businessman of few words, often seen staring down on “his” strip from the comfort of his posh presidential suite. Despite his cold demeanor, Yi enjoys the finer things in life, and demands only the finest fits for his world-famous evening attire.

The Lonely Master took but one apprentice in his lifetime and poured all of his wisdom into him, believing he had found a successor.

Thus he was doomed to search forever in vain for his lost pupil—the sole heir to his legacy.

Yi arrives at the Spirit Blossom Fashion Festival, donning tinted shades and the finest fabrics. While others prefer to celebrate with close family and friends, Yi revels in the attention his outfit brings, intent to cement his style "legacy".

Master Yi's family refused Cabal control, fleeing Rabadon City—only to be snuffed out. To fight back, he became one of the first Inkshadow Warriors, sacrificing his lifespan for a magical tattoo that grants him the power to raise his sword against the Cabal. He doesn't know how long he has left to live; still, he will save his city… and get his revenge.

A prince requires a master of the highest caliber to teach him martial arts, and there is no dragon of greater skill than Master Yi. A true master must be both warrior and poet, champion and artist—and in the spirit of learning, must always be ready for anything.

Victorious Master Yi was earned by players who accumulated enough split points in Ranked. Those who believe themselves worthy of learning the art of Wuju must make the pilgrimage to where its true master resides. Though many have studied under his tutelage, when put to the test, they have all been found wanting.
