Yi Sun Shin (also known as YSS) is a hero in which he can use a bow or a sword in attacking. His signature is his ultimate skill that can be use to check the locations of all the enemies anywhere on the map. He is also unique in a way that there will be a ship to be generated in your base in which Yi Sun Shin can ride. Your base will also have a different appearance since it will turn into Naval Fleet.

After each weapon swap, Yi Sun-Shin's next two basic attacks will be enhanced and will be a guaranteed critical strike - the first basic attack will deal 85% - 100% Critical Damage while the second basic attack will deal 55% - 70% Critical Damage and increases his Movement Speed by 20% for 1 second. Each enhanced basic attack will reduce the cooldown of Traceless by 1 second.

Gameplay Tips
1. Prioritize Skill 2 over Skill 1
2. Here are some basic skill combo
- Use arrow. Then dash in using skill 1. Do 2 basic attacks. Then use skill 2 without charging. Then do 2 basic attacks again.
- Dash away using skill 1 to use arrow. Use Charged Skill 2. Then use 2 basic attacks.
Hero Combos
- Tigreal's or Minotaur's Ult plus Yi Sun Shin's Ult
- The ultimate skill of Tigreal or Minotaur can hold enemy/s in one place to maximize the damage of Yi Sun Shin's Ult.
- Angela's Ult plus Yi Sun Shin melee range
- Yi Sun Shin will survive more with Angela even if he keeps on alternating from long range to melee range.
- Gusion - he has high burst potential and mobility that even if Yi Sun Shin has Skill 1, he will have a hard time in escaping against Gusion's Skill 1 and Ult
- Lunox - her chaos ult can burst Yi Sun Shin easily even in 1v1
- Harith - another burst mage that can kill Yi Sun Shin quickly and is mobile enough to counter enemy squishy that even has a dash skill.
- Pharsa - When Pharsa uses its ult, Yi Sun Shin can also use Ult which is a clear advantage for Yi Sun Shin.
- Other marksman with no dashes like Hanabi - Yi Sun Shin can easily kill squishy heroes too and can chase them using Skill 1 if they tried to escape.
- Estes - Heroes tend to be near each other especially when Estes uses its ultimate skill. Yi Sun Shin's Ult can take advantage of this while having also the capability to build Sea Halberd which makes those who were hit by your basic attacks heal slower.
