Master Yi vs Anivia Matchup Summary

The Master Yi vs Anivia matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 7 recent matches analyzed, Master Yi wins with a 85.7% win rate compared to Anivia's 14.3%, giving Master Yi a 71.4 percentage point advantage. Master Yi dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Anivia players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential.

Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Damage
994Master Yi
739Anivia
Master Yi heavily out-damages Anivia by 255 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Anivia should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Master Yi's sustained damage advantage take over.

1.7Anivia
Anivia brings significantly more crowd control than Master Yi, with 1.5 more seconds of CC per minute. This large utility gap makes Anivia far more valuable in setting up jungle ganks, controlling objectives, and locking down targets in team fights.

Sustain
1,082Master Yi
771Anivia
Master Yi vastly out-sustains Anivia, healing and mitigating 311 more damage per minute. This massive durability gap means Master Yi can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Anivia is forced to recall.
