Master Yi vs Yorick Matchup Summary

The Master Yi vs Yorick matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 26 recent matches analyzed, Yorick wins with a 76.9% win rate compared to Master Yi's 23.1%, giving Yorick a 53.8 percentage point advantage. Yorick dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Master Yi players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Yorick leads by 0.2s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes.
