BEST TEAMMATES
HOW TO PLAY YI SUN-SHIN
Master the weapon swap. Always alternate between melee (sword) and ranged (bow) attacks to trigger your passive's guaranteed critical hits and reduce the cooldown of S1 (Traceless). Use S1 to dodge crowd control, as it provides CC immunity during the dash. Your Ultimate (Mountain Shocker) should be used to reveal the enemy's position, assist in kills across the map, or check for an objective steal.
HOW TO PLAY AGAINST YI SUN-SHIN
- Do not waste crowd control during Traceless — it does not land then.
- After the ultimate you have 60 seconds without it — force fights then.
