I don't lose lane to Ahri unless her jungler actually stays in my lane. This is a simple lane if you start Q, throw tornadoes at her whenever you can, and block her charm with your wall. Get wall at level 3 in case her jungler comes and ganks.
Annie
Annie is a really hard lane if you play aggressive. Play passive and you should be fine. When she ult engages on you, throw up your wall so you don't get hit by the follow-up Q and possibly her junglers abilities. Rush shiv and mercs.
Cho'Gath
This is a skill matchup. Start E and max E. Dodge his Q's and try to kill him early. Once he hits 6 and gets his RoA, you probably won't be able to solo kill him. Just don't let him kill you :D.
Diana
This lane is pretty easy if you play passive and dodge her Q's. Try not to fight her unless you poke her down with your tornadoes first. Call for jungle ganks and try to 2v1 her.
Ekko
This is a really easy lane. Start E and max E. Poke him down early and make sure you NEVER get hit by both parts of his Q. If you do, you're bad (jk lol).
Ezreal
Against Ez mid, play aggro early while still staying behind minions to not take his Q damage. Watch out for ganks and call for ganks when he aggressively E's.
Fizz
Skill matchup. E away when he E's to you. Kill before 6.
Heimerdinger
His turrets make it really hard to engage on him. Play safe after 6.
Azir
Holy shit this lane is hard. Don't play aggressive after he gets level 3.
Karthus
Dodge his Q's with your E. Poke him down and make him waste mana.
LeBlanc
Pretty hard lane. Poke with tornadoes and try to kill before she hits 6.
Malzahar
Literally don't go past the halfway point of your lane. Farm with Q and tornado. Rush Avarice Blade, Mercs, and Hexdrinker. Not even kidding.
Nidalee
Block her important spears, dodge the others. E through her when she jumps to you. Trade your Q for hers early.
Twisted Fate
Block the gold card, trade with him early. Watch for his gold card baits.
Viktor
Hard lane. Farm with Q, TRY to dodge his laser. Only 1v1 him if you are certain you will win.
Xerath
Block his stun and use your E to dodge his Q, W, and ult.
Yasuo
Skil matchup. MAX E TO CHEESE HIM. Get 2 stacks on your E, use it on him with Q, and get out. Trade like that and throw tornadoes to bait his W.
Zed
You will probably lose after 6. Try to win early and ask for ganks. Roaming will help you here.
Brand
This lane can be hard if he plays safe. Try to stay near his minions so you can E through them to dodge his W. Windwall his Q and Ult if you can to avoid a shit ton of damage.
Anivia
This lane can either be really easy or really hard. It's really easy if you can kill her at level 2 after starting E. If you don't kill her early, chances are she will play passive until 6 when she can outburst you.
Akali
Akali isn't common anymore, but she can win lane if she plays passive until level 3, when she has all of her abilities. Try playing really aggressive levels 1 and 2 to kill her/push her out of lane.
Kassadin
This lane is mostly a skill matchup, but he is also melee so you can try using E to harass him in lane. Once he gets 6, it will be hard to kill him, but if you can predict his Riftwalk, you have a chance to land a tornado and kill him.
Katarina
Another uncommon champ, Kat will probably just play passive with Q, but if she E's in, go in and use Q and E to damage/kill her. When she hits 6 and E's on you, throw your windwall towards her and E through her to negate the damage.
Kayle
Kayle is a really hard lane because she can poke you, then once you go in she will Q and slow you. Then, when you ult her, she'll ult herself and you won't be able to kill her. Let her push the lane and play safe. You have more roaming potential than her.
Lissandra
If you go in on her, she will just W and stun you. Make sure that you poke with tornadoes and try to windwall her Q. Don't stand behind minions because her Q will go farther!
Lux
Play aggressive to a point... E towards her, throw windwall to block her Q and E, then E on her and do damage. Keep poking like this and remember: YOUR WALL DOESN'T BLOCK HER ULT, STOP TRYING.
Lulu
With Lulu mid being played in LCS as a utility mage, she hard counters you. If you play aggro early game, you can win, but if you don't, she'll poke you down after she polymorphs you and you'll get cancer.
Morgana
Morg mid is pretty rare now, but she can counter you because she will use her Black Shield when you tornado, then use her ult to lock you down. Try to block her Qs when you can't dodge them.
Orianna
In this lane, it's important to constantly be moving. Try to stay away from her ball, but near minions so you can E.
Veigar
Block his Q and R when you think they will be really threatening to you. When you think he's about to cage you, E away.
Vladimir
This matchup's usually played in the top lane, but still, use E and play REALLY aggressive early. It's fairly easy to bait his W and get a kill.
Very mobile with Sweeping Blade
Two good passives to be used offensively and defensively
Useful in teamfights if the enemies are 'knocked up'
Strong dueling ability
Counters abilities like Ezreal, Caitlyn, and Fizzs' Ultimates
Cons
Relies on laning phase to be useful
Self-reliant to use ult if his teammates don't have a knock up
Can be squishy if building damage
Can be countered by ranged champions in laning phase
Has nearly no damage if he falls behind early
Some of my old Vids :D

About Me
About Me
So when Yasuo's teaser and champion spotlight were released, something in my head made me think "I'm gonna main the **** out of this guy", and two years later, here I am, still maining Yasuo. I'm not sure if it was the mechanical ability or what, but I think that I wanted to get better with champion mechanics in general, so I decided to spam Yasuo, and within 5 games, I got my first pentakill! I was in bronze at the time, so now I feel that it didn't really 'count'. I think Yasuo is a really good champion to learn because he is good for all skill levels. He is one of those champs who has a low difficulty to learn, but an insanely high skill cap. This isn't like Season 3 Kassadin or anything... So when I first started league of legends back in early Season 3, my name was IAMANINJA7... My friend convinced me to start playing league and he had a similar name. Then, when I started to main Yasuo, I changed it to "TheYasuoNA", as you can tell if you watched one of the videos above. I then took a break from Yasuo and for some reason decided to main Riven, so I changed my name to "FizzInHerVaJanna". That was my name up until recently when Riot did a name sweep and I was forced to change my name, so I chose "I Dont Main Top" because I actually do main top, but I main Yasuo mid. See, in solo queue, I prefer to play Yasuo, but when playing with friends, I'm always the top laner, so I have to practice that too!. Sadly enough, I didn't make it to diamond this year, but Platinum is pretty decent and I hope to get diamond next season!
