If You Really Learn How to Counter Yasuo

I'll help..., but you actually have to take this seriously instead of just saying, "Omg, I need to do this shit... unhealthy champion!!!"

How to Beat Yasuo In this scenario, I'll show you how to beat Yasuo as an Orianna just by using autoattacks and those occasional abilities. Passive- Treat his passive like an Illaoi. He wants you to engage on him because if you do, he has room to go in. So just see if you can find an opportunity to get an auto attack off like when he's trying to go for one of the back wave cs.

The way to deal with the crit part of the passive is to try and contest every cs he goes for so he doesn't hit that pd and pd + ie powerspike too quickly.

Q- Just don't stay in range of his basic Q and try to predict where he will e. Usually, most Yasuos will e towards a minion where they can e + q you. If you use a shield like Orianna e or a way to control the area like Orianna q onto that area where you are standing around a minion, it limits his mobility or sets you up for a counterplay since he can either eat your e + q + w combo or have to use 1-4 minions instead.

W- He will most likely Windwall to counterplay to your actions. For example, if I trade against Yasuo with a certain combo with autoattacks and q, he will most likely see that as my pattern, and try to windwall that. Yet again, you must treat this ability like an Illaoi. You engage, then disengage. You can't just expect to throw your whole q + r combo, and not expect him to retaliate. He will expect that. Be Faker, and fake him out.

E- At level 1, Yasuo will usually hold onto an ability to see which one they will get first. They usually start in like 15 seconds at most. They start q if you are passive, and e if you step forward too much. So start out passive, and he will start his q to get the back wave, and that's when you start contesting with autoattacks.

Later on, he will try to e through a minion + e through another one + and use his maxed out e + his q + his autoattacks + fervor. If you let this happen, he will win the trade since he will just e out and windwall.

However, you have to know that he is vulnerable while e'ing. It may be .2 seconds, but it's still something. You have range, and use it. If he's e'ing through the minions, use some of that damage like Orianna q and hurt him. If he e's again, e him. Then just autoattack him, and kite. If you can kill him, however, use ur q + r as he e's out, and finish him off.

R- At level 6, it's very strong, so try and avoid it as much as possible. If he lands it on you, then he deserves to kill you.

Later on in the game, it does very little damage, and the armor penetration is the only thing that doesn't make it complete trash.

I hope it helps you, and I use Orianna since her autoattacks hurt. :D
