How in the acutal hell do you beat a Yasuo

Title. I'm Darius in lane.

I have Tabis. And Phage. And Kindl Gem, and Doran's shield. Yas has Blade, Zeal, and Bersekre's. I get a E, W, AA, Q, AA off on him. He goes to half health, for some reason wins the trade, and kills me.

How is this fair? I got 5 stacks on him, I have tabis, I had ignite, and HE STILL SOLO KILLED ME despite us being a full health at the start of the trade. How is this balanced? How is this fair? In what world is Yasuo a fair champion?

He gets CC for doing literally nothing. He gets a Shield for doing literally nothing. His ult gives him another shield for hitting the only skillshot in his kit. He has nearly unlimited mobility. He's a lane bully. He scales well. He has the single best item efficiency in the game with his passive. He can survive any lane without being punished, unlike other melees, because shield+Doran's Blade makes you unpokable. He does this at no cost to him. He doesn't have to take fleet. He does not have to do anything to sustain in lane. No runes. Nothing. Not even Doran's Shield.

How has this not been reworked? How has this not been changed? How is this balanced? He currently has a 50% winrate midlane. Remember how Riot keeps nerfing Akali even when she's at 47-48%? Well, then the same thing should happen to Yasuo. I'd rather face Akali than fight Yasuo at any point in the game.

Because. You have to be atleast 2000 gold ahead of yasuo to be even with him.

you go Renekton vs him since that's the only champion that is consistently good at trades lvl 2/3 although he will outscale you hard.

Post the video and I'll analyze. What probably happened is that you just facetanked his Q several times.

Unsurprisingly, repeatedly failing to dodge a narrow skillshot tends to get you killed.
