Does any specific champion counter him? I can't seem to farm when he is around because of his Q spam, and if I get low enough he just R's and kills me due to mid laners being squishy. And I can't just waste 
every time he sends out a Q.

Step Sis Lux1 votesI remember malzahar was good against him before nerf idk how about now, personally i like playing Lissandra and ahri against him
MuffledGarbage1 votesif you are a melee champ, attempt to dodge his tornado Q. If you are a mage, you have to stay away from your minions, ALL OF THEM
If there are even 2 minions in a chain where Yasuo can E towards you, you have to run away as fast as possible
Make sure to basic attack Yasuo when his shield is up. Don't chase him just for the shield though. Most Yas players feel naked and weak without the shield, so it'll mentally mess them up by a lot which will help you capitalize on their mistakes

XDDD SO TRUE FOR ME
Ahri Baka1 votesBan him
hes incredibly easy to counter: either catch out the mistakes he makes, or when his Q is on 3 second CD, go in on him, hes incredibly bad rn, thats why he will most likely get buffs soon
Shahamut1 votesYasuo is actually really close to the 50% winrate again after conqueror came out. I doubt he will see buffs any time soon.

Azadethe1 votesYou counter him with champs that have lasers (
), and you attempt to only fight him when he's not near minions (E refreshes indefinitely if he has minions, which gives him more Q shots and faster Tornado charge ups). Melee champs also do pretty well as long as their skills are not projectiles.
If you are playing champs that are generally weak vs him, you try to either avoid him, or you at least try to get behind his wall (if he has no minions near him to E to, this is pretty strong. If he has minions he'll just E to the other side of his wall.
Basically the whole premise of a fight with Yasuo is to cast spells that originate AT HIM not TO HIM, and self originating skills that bring your character TO HIM.
For example, Beats Yasuo while 
doesn't because Karma's W originates at Yasuo so his only option to escape it is to flash/use minions to get far away. LB he can block with Wind Wall, because her tether originates at her and counts as a Projectile.
Other counters generally involve skills which are self originating like 
Ults's which throw the champ at Yasuo. If you can knock up Yas it gives a pretty powerful window to erase him.
Basically, the name of the game with Yasuo is to "Catch the Wind." If you can catch him with effective cc that he can't block, he's dead. If your team is comprised of soft cc, of which only a few are Projectiles, he will walk all over you.
Now, you'll notice I mentioned . Unlike Karma, She and Vel Koz have a skill classified as a Laser instead of a Projectile: Their ults. Lasers bypass his Wall. That does NOT mean Lux vs Yasuo is an easy lane. If you mess up, Yasuo will win. But it does mean you have a tool to finish him off if HE screws up (like turret diving you in enough proximity to Q him into a root, and follow up with Lux's Ult). Just wins because of spammage, but if he sucks as a player, Yasuo will win the trade by building 
and mitigating the "sometimes" Vel hits. If it' a Good, Vel Koz, he can win.
Another super strong counter is 
if played correctly. Her R cannot be blocked, as it counts as a Laser, her W is a floor target spell, not a Projectile, and E counters knockups. You probably won't land Q's on initiate, but if you manage to R Yasuo with Morg and wait for the stun, you can Q him then to put him out of commission for 5 seconds, and he'll likely be dead or almost dead by then.
GhastlyCake1 votesAh, thank you. I cringe at the sight of Yasuo every game so this will definitely help me!
Shahamut1 votesI'd also recommend playing him a few times. Once you get into the head of a Yasuo, seeing his weaknesses and counter points becomes a lot easier.
TempName748141 votesplay him for a bit. anything that annoys you is counterplay. do that when playing against him.
