Guide to Countering Twitch as Master Yi

Tips for Playing as Master Yi against Twitch

If you're in a lane against ranged players, leveling up Meditate can allow you to stay in the lane longer and gain levels faster than they will.

Try using Alpha Strike on a minion in front of an enemy champion so you are placed at a safe distance at the end of the spell.

Wuju Style is very strong early for last hitting minions.

If you suspect Twitch has left the lane, let your teammates know that Twitch is ''MIA.''

Twitch is fragile. Work with teammates to focus on him when you're able to catch him out of Camouflage.
