Guide to Countering Master Yi as Tryndamere

Tips for Playing as Tryndamere against Master Yi

Delaying the activation of Undying Rage is a very effective way to make an enemy champion over-commit to trying to kill you.

If the enemy is stacking Armor, try building items like Last Whisper or Youmuu's Ghostblade.

Bloodlust is an excellent way to heal Tryndamere. Try not to let it fade off before you activate it.

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.
