Is the only way to go now? I feel like can still benefit from . Maybe not every matchup but still. It seems rather complicated.

You can go either. Match up specific, but conq will offer you much more damage. Fleet movement speed + sustain is helpful.

I think you should add Jax on the Threats too, he maybe around 5, but a skilled one can be 9-10

Overall good guide

A nice guide!

I'd say I learned at least one or two things coming to this build and I'm so happy I did!
You really capitalize on the importance of various runes you prefer, and I'm a believer now!

All of your item picks are smart buys and I'm starting to rethink my vision of Yasuo in my mind.

People really underplay his potential by skipping out on core damage items these days in exchange for mobility, and I think it's a total sin.

Thank you bunches for the guide!

*love the videos in the build bulk it's really fun to see what others find important to show others in their guides*

Oh, that's pretty cool, should help the lazy people haha

Ye haha. I Also think i have done that one like 3 - 4 other build :b

Nice guide, very helpful my friend.

What do you think about randuins omen on yas? i use it sometimes, its not bad.

(13) |

situational, if you're vsing crit damage champions such as twitch, tristana, jinx etc. Then go for it.

Ive found Riven to be a harder match up for yas. Also garen is a pain in the *** just an fyi.

(13) |

You poke her level 1 with q, and aa's. Yasuo outscales and generally wins the lane. You can outplay her with the wall. Garen, you bait his q out, once his q is on cd, you out damage his e with basics and q.

Thanks man:) what lane do you think yas is best in right now. I usually take him top lane, but if my team doesnt pick any tanks, then I become the front line. The juggernauts that I encounter a lot in top lane (Darius, Garen, Urgot etc.) usually can out damage me early due to high base damage and sustain, so would taking him mid be best?

He works the best in top lane as if you pick him mid, you need your team to pick an ap champion, which obviously rarely your team will accomodate your pick unlesss you're playing with a jungler/top laner.

Top lane Yasuo can simply farm, out scale and get his items. Certain matchups like tryndamere, darius, urgot, rushing a frozen mallet after your zeal isn't a bad idea as it allows you to kite them by spamming your q as well as making you a lot harder to kill.

Nice guide and I am planning to buy Yasuo, but first I wanted to know the basics what lane, what combos, and what runes.

Please Reply

It's all in the guide, just go to the sub section lol. Press the attack, top or mid lane, and e in, q at the same time, e out, or walk up q etc.

Why no lifesteal as third item ?

Whoops, normally I try to reply to all the comments that relate to the guide, but um, no life stile third item due to following reasons:

Life steal generally only helps in lane.

For a life steal item to outheal or offer more overall health than say frozen mallet, you'll need to do a certain amount of damage. E.G. Mercurial scimatar offers 10% life steal, if you're dealing 500 damage per swing, you'll only heal 50 per hit, to overall gain more health than the frozen mallet you'll need to hit them for a total of 14 times, 14x=7000 damage, and you're not a team fight machine unless your team built a team around you with knock ups (Doesn't happen in solo queue often).

tl;dr Frozen mallet offers better chase, kiting, beefy stats with a good build path, and gives you better health to survive burst which life steal doesn't. I usually get life steal 4th or even 5th item depending on what i need.

Obviously if say the enemies got a ton of tanks, i may get a earlier, but generally in my opinion and tests is a better item, and the doran's/mastery will give you enough sustain.

edit: I responded to you but i'm a fool, oh well indepth response ftw
