How does Morde counter Yi? Yi can clear lane better than morde and he has no interrupt for heal or to stop Yi from running away with ult.

You don't counter him by killing him. You counter him by splitting farm with him.

Well I guess I don't count that as a counterpick, simply playing passive and farming together.

Only any time you can farm morde up to point, click, kill your ad carry and ghost them, its a win in my book.

Exactly. Splitting farm with Yi is definitely a win.
Also Mordekaiser pushes a lot harder than Yi. Yi's Q only hits 4 targets. Post-6 you will be unstoppable and there is no way in hell he can kill you. It's also really hard for a jungler to gank you, because Yi has little damage himself and he has no CC.

Yay less than 30 minutes until IP farming can commence.

I still don't see "going even with a champion" as a counter pick.
Arguing that morde does more with equal CS still doesn't validate the lack of logic behind it. Yi is OP in lane precisely because of meditate.
"look guys, he can't kill me! I countered him! i countered him!"

You want a more direct counter for Yi. Malz would be good. Do your dot thing, when that mr yi goes to heal up standing there combo ult him. Or Fiddle, make him mad if he is capable of getting the reset.

Damn, I never seem to have enough. I didn't play much during s2. Think the only champs released last year I played were Nami/Lulu. So I feel empty having this list of unowned champions.

I don't understand your logic. When Mordekaiser gets the upper hand in lane (which he will against Yi), he will just push 24/7 - and Yi can't roam. Then he will go and crush teamfights with his % health damage and ghost. Your goal is to win the game as a whole; killing your lane opponent 5 times in lane helps you to go in that direction, but it's definitely not the only way to win.

Fiddle should do fine, but he still can't kill Yi.

Well I own 59, but I filled this number up by owning all but 6 champions with <=1350IP.
I grew pessimistic over the fads of the new champions. I feel they are either "UP" (by UP I mean too hard to play proficiently) or too OP (then gets nerfed). I still have Jayce sitting on my champion list but I don't recall ever playing him beyond his first month of release - and I don't plan to touch him again anytime soon.

Just had a big losing streak like 3 days ago where I dropped to under 1k elo, was pretty dissapointed. Have grinded out games the last 2 days and am sitting at 1250~! So happy! Nocturne seems to be the best jungle to carry low elos, he's such a beast.

Obv all champions should be exactly equal at all times in the game. Some champs should not be better in lane, some should not be better at teamfights. The sole goal of riot games is to create an equilibrium whereby your champion choice is totally irrelevent. This is true balance.

I've had success with using swain as my counter pick, every alpha you can have a pretty damn good chance of landing nevermove for free, forcing meditate, put Q on, and then moment he cancels E, spamming autos all the while. Basically if your jungler comes and is patient, it's pretty much a free kill the moment he uses alpha.
