You can already tell that's a Yasuo try-hard/one trick wannabe

When he unnecessarily takes summoner 3 to lane.

Like, wasn't the multiple dashes & double-crits isn't enough for you?

That is so not true.

Of course, most Yas players new to the champ take summoner 14. Most experienced Yas players will take either summoner 12 for obvious reasons (map pressure) even if they aren't top lane, and summoner 3 to maximize kill potential. Yasuo is built to duel and deal consistent damage. Exhaust helps him stick to a target to deal more dmg than is he had ignite. They also lose Armor and 40% of their overall dmg. This sum helps Yas chase down and finish off his target.

Honestly, I take summoner 12 and Fervor on Yas cause I like the feel of it.

Noobs take summoner 14 and Thunderlords because they got bursted by a fed Yas and want to have the same dmg.

Some other good Yasuo plays have been known to take summoner 3 and Warriors Blood Lust.

i feel like fervor would be better with summoner 3 do to you are trying to stick to the target where fervor is best but i don't play much yasuo ^.^

Yeah Fervor is the best option for Exhaust.

Warriors is actually really good, particularly for longer trades where you are trying to, in part, out sustain and out damage your opponent.

Fervor is good for damage in a longer duel, and Warriors is good for sustain in a longer duel. It really depends on what you need for a particular matchup.

I like exhaust and blood lust. Fervor isn't bad, I just prefer overall sustain in lane so I can make more risky trades and just lifesteal it back up.

Dabrick011 votes

Yeah! As always it depends on the Yasuo player.

I take TP and Fervor since I like the Map Pressure and the Damage in Duels. I have Yet to try Exhuast and Warriors, but I will try that soon.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thinks, like I don't care if I'm coming off as salty, but people who take unnecessary exhausts to lane need to get some chill.

Exhaust is never unnecessary. I take it when I expect the jungler to gank and to optimize my ability to 2v1. You're more likely to come out on top if you fight 1 and a half people rather than 2 full people.

I get that, but as someone who plays mostly Normals and in general for fun, when I see champions who have a shit ton of tools at their disposal for outplays(Ahri Ekko Yasuo) taking Exhaust, I just have to shake my head. Like seriously, you're sucking the fun out of the game at that point.

Oh, I see. I hate seeing the try hards in normals too. But competitive games are competitive due to the fact that as long as there is a winning and losing side, you'll always have 2 kinds of people:

  1. People that have fun winning
  2. People that have fun just playing the game

I'm more on the side of 1, but when I play with my friends it's just us bullshitting around. However, if we lose too many games in a row, I might just be that guy sitting top with Yasuo and exhaust trying to stomp the living daylights out of your team... because I didn't have my daily dose of victory.

Nah, it helps him to do more damage (like an armor pen item), also turns every all in in his favor, and since he's bounded to snowball his lane this will help him a lot, also it helps him keeping the enemy in place to land better Qs (especially the third one).

Maybe if more yasuo mid went exhaust they wouldn't go 0/10 in 10 minutes, also always pick tp top or you will screw your team before the game even starts.
