Yasuo - fk that guy.

One of those champions that I find frustrating to play against whatever position he happens to be in as he has a high snowball potential because even if you respect his knock up, he is invariably going to hit you with one at some point and then odds are good that you are going to go down and he is going to be ahead no matter how well you've played up until that point.

Also in your Yasuo vs their Yasuo match-up you invariably have the wrong Yasuo. You know, the one that tries to Wind Wall Riven's Q as opposed to her R. On some level it just as frustrating to have a bad Yasuo on your team as opposed to having a good one on the other team.

This is my tongue is check version about the frustrations of playing against Yas and since he can tell it to you better than I can, I'll let him take it away.


Oh you want to trade with me? Sorry while I've been walking and dashing around, my passive (that also doubles my chance to critically strike) gave me a shield. So unless you can combo some **** on me I'm not going to take any damage. So sorry. Oh you thought you were going to combo some **** on me? I have this thing called Wind Wall that stops just about everything. Oh look, now I have this Statikk Shiv thing. It makes me move faster (mohr shield) and while it doesn't actually increase my autoattack damage it does give me a burst of magic damage that can chain to four nearby objects. Oh and it increases my chance to critically strike (which gets doubled by my passive! Happy dance).

Now they screwed me over a bit when they removed some of the critical strike chance from Infinity Edge so I have to get critical strike chance from elsewhere. But it is K as there is Trinity Force. That has all the nice things (well except for the mana). Makes me even faster. Makes me a bit tankier. Boosts my movement speed more. Has another passive called spell blade. Mmmm, feels good to Q someone and then love tap them with an autoattack that with all my sparkly new items has a 50% chance of critically striking. Oh and after that, the third passive, Rage, makes me move even faster (mohr mohr shield) and hence able to stick to targets better. Totally digging this ****.

Have I gotten to my Q, Steel Tempest yet? Yeah that thing can critically strike and applies On-Hit effects, but we've sort of covered that in the Statikk Shiv + Trinity Force section. Well it can do two other neat things. If I hit 3 targets with Steel Tempest, I can then cast Gathering Storm, which is quite the long range tornado that knocks up all the enemies it hits (I mean what is not to like about non-cleanseable CC that is available every three Q strikes and sets you up for my ultimate, but more on that later? Did I mention that the cooldown on Steel Tempest is lowered by buying attack speed. Oh look, Trinity Force and Statikk Shiv both give me. Da-dum. Attack Speed! Oh and when I'm feeling peckish I can also use Steel Tempest when dashing using Sweeping Blade for an AoE version of Steel Tempest. Sveet!

And did you know that the dash speed of Sweeping Blade increases based on my attack speed? Kind of a cool feature. Graves and Lucian are so jealous.

And last but not least there is my ultimate, Last Breath. I like to call it Win More or if I've been having a rough time of it, Back In The Game. Yeah, you have to knock someone up for it to work, but see Gathering Storm. I can knock up a whole team by myself. Does it take some skill? Sure it does. But if I hit it and I have a couple of the aforementioned items I get the satisfaction of watching the health bars of an entire team melt. And if they have built armor. So what. It ignores 50% of their bonus armor. Then there is Last Whisper assuming I had room for it in my build. Oh and since the dash is a blink, yeah, sorry Veigar Event Horizon will not stop me (aka, Your CC Doesn't Do ****).


In short, I've opened up the Unholy Trinity ( Teemo, Shaco, and Blitzcrank) of the most infuriating champions to play against to include Yasuo and since I see him in games a whole lot more than the other three, he has shot straight to the top of the pantheon.

All hail the Unholy Quadrinity!
