Yes there are people who pick him specifically for your pick in midlane. The fact that he has decent tankiness/sustain and a cc based combo is enough to make him one of your worst opponents to deal with. You're only way to win is to go for short trades while his below lvl6 and used either his Q or W.
Garen
Dude has armor and shield coming with a silence and dmg. Pretty obvious he's one of your worst opponents to face. The only way to win this lane is play safe, bait his Qs and short trade him afterwards.
Annie
Annie is a tricky lane. and she could be placed between major and extreme threats. she has a deadly burst with cc but dont worry she can be dealt with relatively easily now by just going all in after she uses her stun. 2 stacks or more for her stun should be a warning for you to keep distance.
Malzahar
I would place him between even and major if i could. It's pretty obvious why he can destroy you. you can either play safe and farm up as he usually never freezes and buy a qss which is a game changer in this case.
Zed
Between major and even but chose the highest. This lane it's pure skill matchup. Respect him and don't underestimate him in lane. You both rely on your Ws. If one of you misuse it the other have to punish so keep that mind on when he'll probably come for your a** and when to go for his a** as well.
Akali
You can deal with but before lvl6. Once she hits lvl6 she can destroy literally anyone in lane. So you can deal with her if you play smart before she hits lvl6 and you should by all means forget your confidence after she gets lvl6 as you'll be done for good.
Evelynn
srsly she should worry you more than the laner. So play safe anyways if u see her as Yasuo is rly vulnerable to ganks.
Kha'Zix
Again, you should worry you more about him than the enemy laner.
Hecarim
Once you push a little too deep you'll be instantly punished.
Shaco
stealth is generally the best counter for champs like Yasuo and he will most likely camp you because of your vulnerability and bcs most Yasuo's tend to break freezing lanes easily and push.
Talon
This could be even but once he gets his R he can oneshot you. Before 6 hes not rly a counter for you. All his dmg comes from his passive so as long as you deny his W with your W you're good to trade with him with not much fear.
Fizz
Could even be an extreme threat but it is winnable. Just like other threats you can trade him with little to no fear with him. during your 2nd Q know you can E on him to bait his E. At lvl6 lower your confidence and play safe.
Ahri
If she can't time her E's you can easily win this matchup. But if she can time her E well then don't be greedy and start trades only when your W in up
Ekko
Just dodge his Q and trade him until the 2nd stack of his passsive on you and fall back again then repeat. Careful tho good Ekkos tend to W out of vision.
Diana
Literally even. Just block her Q's and poke with Q dont try engaging unless you''re confident in your dmg
Heimerdinger
He just farms and waits to punish your mistakes. keep that in mind and you can deal with him. Short trade with your passive up and leave if he has turrets placed.
Katarina
Tricky lane. Generally, play safe you can't read wether it's about a good kata player or a bad one until you die at least 1-2 times
Orianna
Winnable. just play smartly and bait her q's and take the cooldowns into consideration
LeBlanc
Syndra
Once she uses her E you can go all in. Always save your W for her R
Zoe
hard to deal with as she can outpoke you from distance
Mordekaiser
Taliyah
Lux
Shes a champ thats reliable to a combo so once she uses her Q or if ur confident timing ur W on her q then you can go for the all ins.
Sylas
Easy matchup. Make sure you block his E and you dont have to fear much other than ganks.
Lillia
Galio
Irelia
Don't trade with her while she has her passive up. Since you can dodge her stun with ur W you caan easily look for trades with her especially in early game where she doesnt have R. Try to count how many Q's she used before getting her passive.
Kayle
Cassiopeia
Corki
Aurelion Sol
Azir
Neeko
Veigar
Vladimir
Qiyana
Simply avoid fighting her and play safe no matter what. Not much you can do but dont fall behind as he gets weaker towards the late game.
Viktor
Ziggs
Yone
Yasuo > Yone simply bcs Yone lacks the mobility that Yasuo has. However, he should not be underestimated once he got his Mythic.
Brand
Combo reliable champ, block his q and you can look for the trades
Lissandra
You can look for trades but she has the cc to prevent to do that but she doesnt respond with much dmg therefore it all comes down to who's gonna play it smarter.
Gangplank
Twisted Fate
Don't rly have to say much just block stun and he's 0.
Ryze
High dmg and cc champ. However, whenevr your W is up you can go for the trades but use it once you get stunned. This way your not risking getting dmg and his stun will be on cd.
Kassadin
He cant rly do much in lane and hes easily punished with Yas. His mid-late game however is strong and should not be underestimated if none of you got a particular lead.
Xerath
Hes safe distanced and outpokes you so its even since it comes down on the player.
