yasuo building PD now over shiv?

noticed alot of the pros are using PD atm. I tried it out, and not quite sure how i like it

Burst is lower and i feel like you need more time to ramp up some damage items due to that.

I like that you're tankier in 1v1 fights but is it even noticable in a teamfight?

About your question concerning teamfights .. according to http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/developer-corner/m8EHNfVe-dev-blog-marksman-itemization -> multipiers both item 3087 and item 3046 are designed to fill a specific need

so .. yes static could be better in teamfights, pd if you are going to splittpush

It does give you stronger 1v1 potential, so I definitely see the appeal. I still prefer Shiv though. Much better powerspike.

That's what i buy most of the times on Yasuo, I like it more for 1v1 and stuff...

I see pros rushing trinity on him more often, especially the boy. Maybe they build depending on what suits the matchup best? Imo static seems best to be able to get off those crit harass procs against ranged mages, PD is probably better against fighters that thrive in extended fights, Trininity seems best when needing a good variety of stats and extra tankyness.

I stopped using the shiv on yas. It is a good early item mire for the cs. Due to all the changes in the game,items in yas and zed are different now and working so well. Yellow and blue for yas and red and black for zed. Research it.
