How to kill your Yellows >>>
After you fire off that first bolt and see how much damage it did, you'll know whether you're dealing with a high or low yellow. If you miss, treat it like a high yellow. Here's how to deal with the different levels of yellow (keep in mind that, depending on whether it was in the sweet spot when you pulled it, you might get an extra nuke before your quickcast):
Low yellow: Can be treated like a high blue. If you're resisted at all, it will probably be only once. Bolt, DD, DD, DD/quickcast DD.
High yellow: Count on getting 1-3 resists. You may get less, but safe is better than dead. Bolt, DD, root, sprint to your sweet spot. If your root is resisted, quickcast another. Rinse and repeat. Once you're confident that you can finish it off, skip the root and just blast. On most high yellows I have to root and sprint once, occasionally twice. If you get hit while rooting, refresh bladeturn before nuking again.
