Yasuo is somewhat balanced and OK to deal with until he gets one kill..

Then he snowballs all over your face and does 80% of your health in 0.5 second trades in which you have nothing to do back because hes already dashed away from you through 4 minions in that tiny amount of time. And if he has ignite up, then that "80% of your health" turns into you DYING IMMEDIATELY.

If he lands a knockup? Forget it. Doesnt matter if you're under tower. He gets a shield when he ults you. He has more CC than the average champ (AoE knockup, AoE stun, they last pretty damn long too). Goodbye life.

Oh. Youre gonna play safe? NO YOU ARENT. NOWHERE IS SAFE FROM YAS. STOP LYING.

Give me 1 squishy melee champ this doesn't apply to.

I used to hate it, but then I got back in to only playing Brand.

Max E first, just spam it on him on cd.

He has to get 2 Q's before he gets his tornado, which is a pretty long cd early levels, he has knock up and movement, but the key is to fight him when minions are dead so he can't dash. The shield is pretty stupid, but it's not when he ults, its planned, if you see the white bar filled, just poke him, wait, and then engage when it's down. That's all the advice I can provide. Also it's not 1 kill, it's just most likely that after laning and that 1 kill he gets zeal which gives him a significant power spike, you just gotta be wary.

If he's NOT landing a knock up, he's lousy. All yas has to do to ENSURE he gets his knock up, is dash into you and mash Q as he does. BAM, he spins as he hits you, knocks you up, and ults you off the planet.

But oh man... don't tell Yas players this. They like to talk about his tornado as if it's hard to stack and use, don'tcha know? You know... just like his Wind Wall is a difficult ability to use.... even though you can fire it the wrong way and still have it block a skill shot accidentally.

You can still dodge this and almost every champion in the game can stop Yasuo if he tries to dash directly on top of them like this.

Um... if you're in danger of dying to a Yas ult, you probably CAN'T stop him if he does this. I guess you could flash but um... looong cooldown on flash. Short cooldowns on those Yas abilities.

Any ability that prevents movement or silences will keep him for ulting even if his knockup hits you. That includes charms, stuns, snares, suppressions, silences, knockups, knockbacks, fears, polymorph, grounding, and taunts. If the champ you're playing has none of these things, you really shouldn't be letting Yasuo E-Q onto you. But wait, nearly any dash will get you out of his Q radius before you get knocked up as well? Flash will do it which nearly every champion has, but all but the slowest of dashes will also work. But hey, let's suppose you're a complete failure on both counts. You can still get out of Yasuo's ult with cleanse, mikaels, qss, GP w, Ali ult, Olaf ult, or Rengars empowered W. But let's suppose you still don't have any of those available. You can still cast non-flash summoners of any kind when Yasuo is ulting you, including summoner 21 summoner 3 summoner 7.
