Any Experienced Yasuo Players Wanna Give Me Some Tips?

Van Grants··1 votes·980 views

I play Yasuo as much as I possibly can. I almost always get the highest CS in the game and take objectives/towers well with him as a splitpusher, but I still have issues in lane. I have trouble playing aggressively and taking advantage of early leads. Any tips?

I just played a game against a Yasuo who rocked us, and one thing i noticed he did (besides taunting us in all-chat) was that whenever he was ganked/fought someone, he put up his windwall and fought in the middle of it, always keeping it between him and the person he was fighting. It didn't work so much against me (i was pantheon) but he annihiliated the rest of my team this way.

yasuo is very item reliant play passive with him until you get a shiv and your ult he is very squishy so don't stay pushed up until you get lifesteal or else the enemy jungler will come and you will die

yay someone looked past the fact i am bronze and noticed my advice really isn't that bad

Now that we know you are bronze.... your advice is now invalid. /troll

On a more serious note, I don't play yasuo because I hate him, but I do lane against him often. I can say that I love yasuos who play passive. It makes it so easy for me to farm AND harass him. You'll get almost NO farm if your laner knows what they are doing.

My suggestion is to play against bots at the least until you get down his mechanics and then try using that to your advantage to farm effectively and trade effectively.

but yasuo isn't going to win an all in against a zed maybe if he was all inning someone like xerath at lvl 1

He can win that actually if there are minions nearby for him to E to in order to avoid most of Zed's damage. Once Zed's ult is gone, you have the advantage and can win the fight easily. It's all a matter of positioning.

To be honest, Xerath would be a lot more dangerous to all in. You can't block a point blank stun. Once stunned, he will unleash his full combo and still be able to escape because he can move and cast at the same time on all his spells except for his ult.

ya but zed has his passive for when you are below half health and if their are minions for you to e to that means there are minions that will hit you if you try to go offensive

Like I said bro, positioning. Why would you go in against him if you had no minions on your side either? Most champions would lose a trade like that.

well you said yasuo can win if he has minions to e to but in order to get to zed while also having minions to e to that means you have to get closer to their minions than yours and by then if zed hits you, he will be far enough for your minions not to switch aggro on him

Yeah he loses a lot of all ins vs like annie zed leblanc fizz :/ but scales really well

for the n00bl0rd yasuos you start Q and safely farm Q till lvl6 when jungle malphite comes in and you faceroll the other guy for the season yasuos you start sweeping blade and all in the other guy at lvl1 to pick up a flash, first blood or both :l

I dont play yas, just observing my cousin who does his gameplay fits his theme.. he's hit and run(kiting), rather than straight up duels... unless he's fed, otherwise he won't win duels

Start with Q and use it farm. Also, your E is useful to take out minions that are about to die. Use your tornado to harass the opponent and use your Q also. Start off with a Statikk Shivitem 3087 and then Boots of Swiftnessitem 3009 to get your passive up quicker. Then buy BORKitem 3153 and IEitem 3031 then Last Whisperitem 3035. For your last item get any situation defensive item.

Why would you go Boots of Swiftness over Berserkers Greaves? The passive isn't worth it when you compare to the CDR on your Q/E.
