Guide to Countering Master Yi as Braum

Tips for Playing as Braum against Master Yi

Glacial Fissure leaves a powerful slow zone, position it well to split teamfights and slow the enemy approach.

Leap in front of squishy friends and shield them from projectiles with Unbreakable.

Work with your allies to stack Concussive Blows, encourage them to basic attack marked targets.

Advice to Win Against Master Yi

If Master Yi tries to farm with Alpha Strike, hit him a few times so he has to use mana with Meditate to heal.

Although Master Yi cannot be slowed while using Highlander, other disables can stop him in his tracks.

Meditate is an effective method of healing damage over time, but Master Yi is susceptible to coordinated team ganks early in the game.
