Kalea10.3
You isolate her in the domain where no teammate can be healed and she cannot leave.
Floryn10.3
In your domain a global heal means nothing — nobody is there to receive it.
Minsitthar10.2
The domain isolates him from the guards his ultimate depends on and you win the duel inside it.

HOW TO PLAY YIN
Your goal is to isolate squishy carries (Marksmen and Mages). Use S2 to stun and S1 for burst damage. In your Lieh form (inside Ultimate), your S2 becomes a much longer dash-stun and your S1 deals massive AoE damage. If you kill an enemy inside the domain, you emerge in Lieh form and reset your skill cooldowns. Avoid trapping tanky brawlers like Terizla or Thamuz who can survive your 8-second burst.
HOW TO PLAY AGAINST YIN
- Do not waste crowd control during Frenzy Strike — it does not land then.
- After the ultimate you have 50–60 seconds without it — force fights then.
HIDDEN MECHANICS
What the in-game descriptions do not tell you: crowd-control rules and verified skill quirks. How crowd control works →
Instant Blast- Rings left behind by Yin before entering Lieh's domain will be dragged inside at the same distance behind Yin and will try to catch up to Lieh.
- Instant Blast's extra 30% Damage Reduction does not stack with Instant Blast (Lieh)'s damage reduction but its duration will be reset instead.
- Rings left behind by Lieh just before exiting his domain will be dragged outside at the same distance where in first dragged the target before catching up to Yin.
- Instant Blast (Lieh)'s extra 30% Damage Reduction does not stack with Instant Blast's damage reduction but its duration will be reset instead.
My Turn- Pulling an enemy inside Lieh's domain has a slight casting delay.
