Question about Yasuo

3lue·1/30/2015, 5:58:13 AM·1 votes·959 views

I am a Silver Yasuo main and even tho I am not perfectly skilled at him I was just wondering why A) build is better than B) now

A) or with 9 as reds and 3 lifesteal quints

B) with 10% crit (9 reds + 1 quint) and 2 as quints

Why have I been losing more with B's build? Is the IE nerf THAT signficant?? Even though I am able to build him 100% crit without the decent rune setup with pre-nerf IE?

So far I am 5-0 with the A build and 4-8 with the B build, should I just stick to the A build or are there better builds? Lately I have not been able to carry from behind with B build like I used to season 4 / post season

Thanks in advance

Any tips for a Yas player would be great~~

you don't need trinity force on yasuo Im in bronze V so you don't have to listen to me but i recommend a ga or a banshee's veil depending on what team comp you are against for your 6th item rather than trinity force

Never play yasuo but why you build 120% critical chance on B). (20+20+10+10)*2=120%

I kind of play Yasuo.. I don't know, but I wouldn't build a tri-force on him. You could save that slot for a GA, Banshees, or a Randuins--too last a tiny bit longer in fights.

I would worry more about mechanics then a build. Yasuo takes a pretty good amount of skill to actually carry games--given the fact that he's super easy to delete.

Yasuo is harder to carry with now, the nerfs hit him hard af. But he's still really strong, just takes more mechanics to perform at a high level.

Work on your mechanics! Build can be a 2nd focus.

As a Yasuo main, the item 3031 nerf does hit me quite a bit since without runes, item 3087 and only gives me 80% crit instead of the usual 90%. However, a quick way to remedy that is to simply build item 1051 at some point to reach 96% crit (as good as 100% to me). If you have the gold to reach this point, you are probably pretty farmed up and have the damage for wave clear and therefore you can switch the item 3087 to item 3046 when you have more gold to do so to free up the slot takes up.

General Build Path item 3087 -> item 3031 -> item 1051 -> item 3153 or item 3072 -> item 3035 -> xx item 3046 -> item 3074 add boots somewhere in between (better early than late tho) :)

Example End game build item 3006 item 3046 item 3031 item 3072 item 3074 item 3035
