So im a new player (lvl 23) and i played a few champions idk which to main i still have to try them all but i really liked Jhin Draven Master Yi Nunu Willump (last both only for jng) and lately Yasuo...I used to hate him because he was too hard to play against but it honestly now seems like i just was a noob to play against him...So i tried to play him and the first match i got was 0/15/2 which was horrible...He is just sooo hard i cant seem so find a honest like real youtube vid explaning how to play him and his mechanics...So is it just me or is extremly hard to master?

Mobafire builds usually have good explanations for champions' strengths and weaknesses.

He's easy to mess up with and if your behind you can be useless. (Honestly im surprised there are no troll comments)

Not really. You're still only lvl 23. Every champion gets easier to play as you get more used to the game

You can get good at him but never master him. Mostly practice will teach you. First games may be tough but after a while you should get used to the champion. Still, practicing against different match ups and learning what to do in each case is valuable.

As it comes to the well-known Yasuo syndrome - He is a really powerful champion to be honest and while dashing and have this feel of being able to outplay the enemy really hard is really common and often leads to throwing/feeding etc. When you die try not to blame your jungler or your team. Try always to look at your own mistakes. Ask yourself "what I did wrong?"

As it comes down to mechanics you can take a look at airblade, keyblade, auto attack animation cancel with E and so on. You may try them in the practice tool to understand them better, but some arent easy.

Yasuo is usually a binary champion. He either falls behind a lot or he stomps the enemy and just needs to snowball. If you are behind try to die as least as possible and farm carefully without taking many fights ( try to scale and get back to a good state). If you are fed, push then roam and play with your team around objectives ( it will give your team a lead).

Practice, try to focus on your mistakes and before taking a fight or dive into outplays think of the enemy jungler or the whole enemy team and then make the choice.

A thing that i want to share as well is when you play Yasuo a lot of people ( and by that I mean A LOT) will be toxic with you no matter what, because you are playing this champion so at first it wont be a good feeling (especially for a new player). Never let these people let you down. You will have teammates flaming you more than playing because you are 0/5 or the enemy team will spam that you are a cancerous person because of playing Yasuo etc. Just ignore them. You are playing what you like to play and that's all. The community is hella toxic to Yasuo players ( this also relates to the Yasuo players being toxic as well) so bear it in mind.

I wish you having a good time with playing Yasuo and enjoying the game.
