Lux Vs. Yasuo (Halp!!)

I had a rough game earlier because of something I had not yet dealt with. I understand that Yasuo's wind wall blocks incoming projectiles, but whenever I would throw down my E BEFORE he put up the wall, the second he did, it would vanish. I had tried throwing it down a few times as a slow, not to detonate it, but he would wait for me to do it, put up the wall, and then POOF... it's gone. I knew it would block my ult and snare, but it doesn't seem right that he can put it up after I've cast something and have it go away.

Yasuo can block...(wait for it)... all of lux's abilities except for her ultimate.

I noticed that in my games against Yasuo as Lux that Yasuo's windwall procs off the center of the orb. If you can throw out the orb so that the center stops just before the windwall you can detonate it upon landing right as he is on the edge of the spell. Keep doing this until you see him throw out a wind wall. Once you see him use it you have a 20 second window to land a good Q on him and then laser his face off. Or if you want to play the safe route you can start throwing your E directly at where he is.

Now if he is a good Yasuo there is a bit of a mind trick you can play with him. Yasuo will only "dodge" if he has a minion to dash onto. Throw your E into the closest group of minions to him. Now toss out your Q directly at him or lead where you think he will walk to. Yasuo now has two decisions. He can take the Q to the face and possibly the laser or he can dash onto the minion and take the E explosion damage and possibly a laser to the face. Either way his face will be messed up and you will come out ahead in this trade. The only downside is that this "technique" is mana intensive so I recommend rushing this item item 3114 and turn it into this item item 3165 . If you fall behind then get yourself some boots and keep your distance. The boots will help dodge the cyclones he will toss out so just be mindful of that.

then E and Q can be cancelled once E is on the ground he cant cancel it, and your ultimate isnt a projectile it is instantly doing damage in that whole line so.

While Lux's E is still moving, it's considered a projectile. I don't know about her ulti, but you could probably check the wiki.
