What us Yasou's Weakness

I was playing Nautalis today, and was fighting a team comprised of most of his weakness, marksmen. I like to play veigar, who's weakness is people with dashes and blinks to get out of his babycage. I used to play supports, who are weak to assassins and burst mages. WHAT IS YASOU'S WEAKNESS? Its not mages, since they are mostly ranged and he has an ability to get rid of all ranged attacks and has a shield to protect him. He can basically 1v1 any fighter with such high base stats and a thicc boy crit passive and other sundry powerful abilities. Its not armor because he gets like 40% armor pen off his ult. I actually cannot think of anything that innately counters him and it frustrates me.

The player controlling him is his weakness, greed is usually an absolutely huge weakness from yasuo players in lower elo (cant say about higher elo since I've never been there Amumu )

No escape ability or out damaging him. That's pretty much it though

Tanks

ADCs counter tanks, but Yasuo does not have enough sustained damage

Azir azir azir. Azir , infinite soliders aoe dmg, so yasuo can’t run away. Yasuos w can’t block azir’s W. Azir has a shield to get away from yasuos tornado. Azir is the counter

He has a key.... Owait wrong meme.

In all seriousness, his weakness is he is forced into building glass cannon as a melee due to double crit passive, his mobility is gated by minion wave or enemy targets, and his ult is gated via displacements.

Yasuo's weaknesses are pretty glaring:

Fighters / bruisers: Yasuo's slippery enough to beat a few of them (such as Darius) for the first few levels. But, as the game progresses, they quickly begin to shit on him. He can conceivably catch back up in the very late game, but they remove him from the mid game.

Melee assassins / assassins who can juke his knockup: Yasuo is squishy as fuck. Champions like Zed and Talon can reliably murder him, as well as juke out his tornado (and by extension R) with invis / untargetable / ect. LB is also a nightmare for him; as she's fast enough to be difficult to hit, but also deletes him in the blink of an eye.

Immobile mages who aren't retarded: Yes it's true, immobile mages can beat Yasuo! Plenty of immobile mages have point > click hard CC, which ruins his day. And while he has wall, said hard CC has a much lower cooldown. It's a simple matter of baiting his wall and not letting him get free damage through creeps.

My guess is either the person playing him(which doesn't count) or that he fucks your comp over(again doesn't count)

He is squishy, his wind wall does literally nothing against champions without projectiles, you handle him the same way you handle any melee ADC, CC and blow up.

He is a pubstomper, at low elo where people have trouble fighting him, he utterly rekts shit, at higher elo as players get better, his win rate drops because people understand when best to fight him and his moments of vulnerability, like when he has no minions, his E does no damage, and he can't freely reposition.

Yasuo's weakness is the player not kbowing how to gold back when using him.
