first picked yasuo and Played vs a zed last night. Thought the zed was good cus in loadout he had a skin, and i didn't so i was prepared to get ass raped without lube.

laning phase goes fine, i actually have the cs lead up until i die. We attempted to all in each other at 6 and he probably should've had me but he flashed away (we both were within an auto, but i believe he would've had me). We both stuck around i got baited super hard

Fast forward 25 seconds and i gots me static shiv. Proceeded to shit on him every time he tried to walk close.

Okay soo, what's the point? I've faced a bunch of yasuos, and I've never really felt he was super strong when i faced him in lane. Felt like if i played better than him, I'd win and i usually did. But when i play as yasuo, if you're better than your opponent, it is clear as day. Yasuo just can exploit every mistake the enemy makes, and if played correctly the enemy can't even trade back. " Idk, never felt this playing vs him, but every time i traded as him i'd think "damn i'd be pissed off if i was the other dude wtf can he even do.

Anyone who believes yasuo is overpowered is very ignorant to what's imbalanced.

I'm pretty sure it's his passive that makes stabby mc stab stab op. Put his passive on any {AD} champ and you will have created a monstrosity. Imagine tryn with yasuos passive. Broken. Imagine vayne with it. Broken. Imagine yi with it.... broken. Imagine taric with it... well you get the point.

Don't forget to mention how his kit is balanced around his passive. Other champions with that passive would destroy everything simply because they aren't balanced around it.

You can shit on anyone with anything if you're more skilled, it's not even easier with Yasuo

If I knew I were laning against a nooblord I'd just pick Draven and cash me some bonus gold

I usually take Talon into yasuo since one auto and one Q will win me the trade as Talon.

Basically instead of maxing rake first I max Q and win trades.

If you can hit your skill shots, playing Xerath against Yasuo is a breeze (pun unintended, then realized and completely intended). His windwall blocks one of your skills, and you have enough range on him that you can stay pretty far out of his range.

Note I say land your skill shots. If you can't, then you can't get the poke you need on him to drive him off and use more spells,, which means you have to get close to get mana back and miss some CS, and then can't get your mana regen item to sustain. Then things suck

The Zed was shit then, Yas shouldn't be able to beat him once they hit 6 unless he refuses to walk up to you because of Shiv. Once it's down you can all in yas and he won't have his shiv proc back for a second or 2. Maybe 3 if he plays it bad.

People should stop defending Yasuo. His kit is toxic, that's the short of it. Riot needs to remove something from his passives. He just does too much.
