Try your best killing akali before 6. DON'T TRADE WITH HER AFTER 6 AT LEAST THAT YOU ARE FED. You can try roaming but it is so dangerous.

Introduction
Hi everyone!
My name is DINfire99 and I am a Gold V midlaner from Italy.
Here is my personal lolking account
In this guide I will show you some tips, some tricks and even some advices to use Yasuo.
Disclaimer: If you aren't interested at all or you just think that writing a "low" ELO build is a kinda stupid idea because I am not Plat or above, please leave this page.
Now, we are ready to go.
So, first of all, let's take a look to my Yasuo rune page:
You can see that this rune set is slighty different from the one on the top of the page: if you think that you are pretty confident with Yasuo then you should run this rune set but remember that the one n the top of the page has flat stats which help A LOT on ealry game trades.
So let's take a look at every single rune type.
Marks: We run AD flat red (that's so standard). The reason behind why I don't run critical strike chance runes on marks is because of the Infinity Edge season 5 nerf, wich now gives 5% less critical strike chance so we should run all marks and 1 quint without flat stats.
Seals: I personally run 9x Greater Seals of Scaling Armor which give a huge amount of Armor at lvl 18. Remember that if you want to use the rune set on the top of the page you should remeber that probably is better that you take Flat Armor seals if you are vs. AD Champs in lane, like Zed, Talon and Varus.
Glyphs: Here we are with the Glyphs. Basically I personally run 9x Greater Glyphs of Magic Resist because I think that there is no other stats that you really want on Glyphs to use Yasuo. Obvviously you can take Flat Magic Resist vs heavy early game AP.
Quintessences: I took attack speed quintessences because they help Yasuo a lot: Yasuo's Q Cooldown is reduced the more attack speed Yasuo has so you ABSOLUTELY want to hav some attack speed to have less CDR. AD Quints aren't worth at all because of the fact that most of Yasuo laning phase damages come from his Q.
Most of times I start with E wich helps Yasuo a lot last-hitting the first minute and dodging enemy poke/skillshots. However there are many cases where you want to take Q as first skill. Also remember that sometimes you don't even want to level up your wind wall at lvl 3 (for example if you are vs Vladimir or Wukong). I also saw many pro players which maxed E but i personally enjoy a lot more maxing Q because of the sustained damage you can deal.
Yasuo hasn't been a good pick in soloQ from his nerf. However, since Zed has been nerfed, the most picked SoloQueue AD mid champs are Varus and Yasuo so it's a good pick. Most of times he's not blind picked because he's easy counterable.
Yasuo's real power is unleashed in Ranked 5's especially because he needs some strong engager like Malphite and Orianna.
