Tips for Playing as Twitch against Master Yi

You can catch up to an enemy out of attack range with Venom Cask.

Twitch's Attack Speed is among the highest in the game; try purchasing items with on-hit effects such as Black Cleaver or Wit's End.

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.
