General Playstyle and Tips:
Laning Phase:
Focus on poking your opponent with your Q and auto-attacks. Utilize your passive, Feline Friendship, to gain a shield and harass your opponent. Remember, Yuumi's early game damage can be surprising, so don't be afraid to go for trades.
Mid Game:
Roam with your jungler or mid laner using your W, You and Me!. This will allow you to assist in skirmishes and provide heals and CC with your E and R.
Late Game:
Stick with your team's primary carry. Use your W to jump between allies, providing heals with E and engaging or disengaging with R.
Team Fights:
Position yourself safely, usually attached to a frontline or carry. Use your R to disrupt the enemy backline or peel for your carries. Remember to constantly reposition with W to ensure you're always in the best spot.
Objectives:
For Dragon and Baron, provide vision using your Q and heal your teammates with E. Your R can be a game-changer in objective fights, so use it wisely.
Farming:
Farming with Yuumi can be challenging due to her low AD. Focus on last-hitting and use your Q to help with wave clear.
Additional Advice:
- Yuumi top is unconventional, so use the element of surprise to your advantage.
- Always be aware of the map. Your W allows you to quickly assist in fights across the map.
- Remember, Yuumi is squishy. Positioning is key to ensure you don't get caught out.
Pros:
- High Damage early and late.
- Guaranteed first blood.
- Insane team fights.
- Insane psychological manipulation when soloing your laner.
- Flex on the enemy team because you won with Yuumi top.
Cons:
- "After this, can you play the piano while I nap, Jhin?"
Thanks for clawing your way through the AD Yuumi Top guide, may your meows be mighty and your purrs powerful!
