What does one do against Yasuo as melee (top)?

Photos of Ghosts··1 votes·536 views

He shoves lane at lvl1 with his E, which also drives you crazy trying to track his position, and then you have to tank the minions or lose them under turret. I tried starting cloth against him and rushing new randuin's but still hurr.

Buy item 3751 It works wonders against his passive. You don't need to upgrade it. Just buy it asap, and every time he dashes near you, it will proc his passive. And when you see his passive is down, you can trade with him.

That's a nice idea

You don't stand next to your minions, and you beat the shit out of him cause he is squishy as hell. Barely tougher than a caster minion lol.

Whenever I jungle and see enemy top lane Yasuo, I get excited because he is a very easy champion to gank; no escapes, not very strong early, squishy at all stages of the game and a shoved in top lane means he has a long way to walk to escape me.

When Yasuo shoves you in and you don't have a champion that can all-in Yasuo to punish him for his arrogance, point out to your jungler that you are shoved in and that Yasuo is a delicious gank.

pick sth. that can all in him at lvl 2 (xin, olaf, panth, Renekton...) or just get shoved in and wait for your jungler to eventually show up.

Any melee has higher stats and better damage steroid than him before he builds Shiv and IE and when things at at that point you have already your core items too meaning that if you didn't mindlessly fed him you are at a huge advantage.

What if I didn't get any minion the whole game because of his shoving?

Then you need to work on your last hitting.

What StealWolverin said.

If you are afraid of him wooshing through minions it's your fault because any melee will push him out of the lane forever nad farm a lot better.

I found myself against him as Malphite and Nasus until now.

Malphite should stomp any AD but I've never played it myself so I can't tell what to do.

Susan is quite straight forward, wait for him to have no way to dash out of your range and slow him. GG.

Susan is indeed straightforward, I died several times and didn't manage to CS until he roamed a couple minutes, and when he was back in lane he couldn't stay in lane anymore :3

Malphite tho. I started cloth and W (10% extra armor) but it was a mistake, no mana sustain, had to B continuously and coudln't duel him at any time in the game. Still won because I played with my tem while he was busy bragging in /all about how he outdueled me every time and I was noob for needing constant roams and ganks. Maybe he was right. But I won :3

Probably going for damage on Malphite while building armor should have a better impact on the lane then.

These champs can make Yasuo afraid to go top.

There's yasuo with his trademark 'bad early game' getting first blood on garen at lvl 3.
