Could someone provide me with some tips for laning as yasuo / azir / ekko. I am very new and only own these 3 champs and would like to know everything from the basics to the advanced moves. Thank you in advance.

Ok I'll go over basics vs. yasou since I've faced a few in the last few days. One important tip is to watch his flow bar. When it is full, he will get a shield for 1.5 secs the next time he takes damage. If you are playing a ranged champion be sure to pop this shield with an auto attack before trading with him so you don't waste mana/cooldowns. Always be aware of his windwall before using your ultimate if windwall can block it (i.e. syndra, cassiepia, veigar, etc). He can also chase you with his e infinitely if he has minions to dash to so be careful about leaving your tower if he is ahead. Finally, be sure to dodge his empowered q which has good range and he can combo into his ultimate.
Swain is my prefered counterpick to yasuo as most of his kit ignores windwall and he can outduel yasou pretty easiliy. Also, zhonyas hourglass is pretty core on swain which helps deal with yas, and swain has more survivability in teamfights. He does have the weakness of lack of waveclear which can lead to yasuo getting an early cs lead. Hope this helps.
