How in the ever living fuck do I go against you as ???????

Like I built zhonyas and played safe under tower but it wasn't enough. He still dodged EVERY skillshot I threw at him by using his dash, then when I was about to land one, he just windwalled and ran.

So how do I go against this matchup????? He made me so fucking salty after like the 3rd kill cause he literally walked right into tower, attacked me once, I kited him to eternity, then after like 6 shots he still gets out with just under half health.

Like I know he got fed but how the fuck do I go against him???

You don't need to beat him in lane. Just farm and go even.

Yeah he said fuck that and decided to just dash through all my minions any time I got close and poke me before dashing back.

Any other tips?

You have massive range, youre going to go down in CS without jungle help. You will just have to accept that, but low cooldowns and now mana buffs for mages will let you farm from a safe distance outside of E range, plus save your knock up for the moment right after he goes through you so you can ensure you hit him with it and buy yourself time to combo or get away

I think Yasuo's dash is actually also his weakness in many match-ups and Velkoz is part of that group. It's a flat dash, you always know haw far he travels and you know he can't use his skills or aas to cancel it, so just place your delayed knock-up in a spot very he dashes to and then just combo him while in air, that's the time he can't use any skills - he can't windwall middash and the dash is not fast so get a bit of practice and you will be fine.

You can also Q around the wall thanks to geometry.

Punish him when his wall is on CD.

Position yourself properly, if you stand among minions you are giving him a lot of options to dash in different directions.

But really when his wall is down you should be fine, just use Yasuo's dash to hti your skills, your W and E are perfect for his dashes ;-).

That should give you room to farm.

Yeah unfortunately, this is as close as I got with the "save e for the dash", guess I could do a bit better though.....

Dude you're yasuo. Be happy you're not a vlad main. Imagine if yasuo's E was given a delayed cast time of 2 seconds, was now blocked by the first minion or unit hit, and had a resource cost of 10% of his maximum health. You'd use 2 abilities, feel frozen in time, then feel like some irregular-class Titan while you sit back like some retard charging your E only to have it interrupted then you sit back and die because they tripled the cooldown on the ability.

Yasuos have no reason to complain.

Yes, yes, gather them all in one place so I can nuke them all at once.

Ahh i thought you got rekt by vel as yasuo.

I'll tell you though, as Velkoz your best bet is to sit back and farm from a range. Auto the front minions and use an ability to kill the rear ones. Yasuo is strong in 1v1 but comparably weaker in teamfights; where Velkoz makes much more of an impact in fights.
