Zed
[ALL THREATS ARE RANKED AS 5 FOR PRACTICALITY] Zed is a very common matchup for Yasuo. The key for this match-up is "DONT FALL BEHIND". Zed is an insane Assasin and if he gets a lead in the early phases of the game he will start onetapping you without even needing his Shurikens. So dont risk too much in this lane and try to trade safely, only when your Windwall is up and when you have a good wave position to go in and out/dodge his Shurikens. One important tip is that when Zed ults he will always appear behind your character, so in order to play around it with Yasuo you have to cast your Tornado behind you considering his ultimate animation. With a bit of pratice and timing you will have no more problems into Zed!

Champion Build Guide
Heeeey, welcome to my "Yasuo Midlane Guide". Im an Italian Master ![]() ![]() I started playing in middle Season9 and peaked Diamond I in early Season10. I know it sounds weird but, hold on, it wasnt my first experience on MOBA games. I played DOTA 2 for years! So when switching to League of Legends I was still in my environment. As I said , I come from Dota2, and in Dota details and game knowledge is a MUST. That's why I decided to make a guide, I really like to speculate on the game details and share with you guys my experiences and knowledge. I really hope this guide will help you out and answer some of the questions that playing ![]() So, with all that being said, hope you enjoyed the guide, I will do my best to keep it updated and make sure noone will be missing out on new builds and playstyles. Here's my stream, If you are interested you can pass by and say Hi I stream almost every day and you can find me:HERE Im also trying to make some videos im posting a lot of MATCHUP-GUIDES go check them out if you want , for now I edit them myself, you can find the channel:HERE |
• Insanely good at farming, easy to get high CS/m • Good scaling • Good mobility • High mechanical skill-roof • Rewarding when played correctly • Insane sinergy with Knock-up comps |
• Very hard to master mechanically and macro wise • Hard to get back in game when behind • Sensible to burst-damage • Wrong positioning hard punishes • Not so many winning matchups • 0/10 spike is not real |
KEY-STONE SELECTION |
|
As we all know ![]() I bet you know about the 0/10 spike ♿ THIS IS WHY I WANT TO GIVE YOU SOME TIPS |
•MAP AWARENESS: Having a good map awareness while playing ![]() Knowing where the enemy jungler is and if you can step-up in the lane to start trading and csing properly is foundamental in order to scale-up and become relevant in the game. |
•IMPORTANCE OF THE EARLY LEVELS: As we already said its important to have a good map awareness and track enemy jungler. This is becaouse ![]() Its important to have a good , consistent laning-phase and be always even/ahead in gold and items. Having a high CS/m is not hard due to his insane wave-clear and last-hit accesibility, in this way we can be relevant most of our games, as long as you dont lose too much farm and exp in the laning-phase. |
•![]() Beside the classical ![]() ![]() ![]() Works best against champions with no mobility and weak level 1. You can bait the enemy to get close to the wave and start using ![]() Its important to chain AUTO ATTACKS with the ![]() |
•LEVEL 1 ![]() Yasuo's level 1 IS VERY STRONG AGAINST MEELE CHAMPIONS. For example against ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() So its important to learn the matchups and UTILIZE THE LEVEL 1 ADVANTAGE PROPERLY |
•![]() ![]() ![]() For example ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
![]() |
•KEYBLADE The Keyblade is a very popual ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This will result in dealing additional damage by adding a bonus ![]() ![]() |
•KNOCK-UP TARGET-SHIFT COMBO This is a pretty complicate combo that works around perfect timing and spacing. Consists in using your ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
•E WALL JUMP This trick can be used as an insane escape in some situations. You can use your ![]() Its a bit tricky and needs some practice to be pulled-off consistently. |
•Q BUFFER + FLASH This combo will allow you to take off-guard enemies by extending your Tornado's ![]() ![]() Make sure to cast only at half-animation of the ![]() |
•3rd Q-HOLD + BACKSTEP FLASH-Q + IGNITE These 2 tricks will enable you a lot of solokills in the early phases of the laning-phase trust me! Hodling your third ![]() ![]() ![]() Also another insane mechanic to take off-guard enemies is the base ![]() ![]() Its important to do this combo only when we know properly our damage out-put. Make sure to BACKSTEP BEFORE GOING FOR THE COMBO , if you walk straight up to the enemy he will understand what you will do and could predict your timing. So in order to give the enemy the lowest chances of out-play is important to perform this combo with a little backstep! |
The key points of laning as ![]() |
•WAVE MANAGEMENT: As we already said ![]() This is why wave management is a key point. Making sure to know enemy jungler's position and avoiding non-sense pushing has a key role in having a consisten laning-phase that will allow us to eventually take over the game. Also pulling-off lane freezes in winning matchups is important in making sure you will get the most value out of your wave management , denying XP and CS to the enemy midlaner. |
•PROPER TRADING: Trading as ![]() For better trading potential in the laning-phase I recommend playing with ![]() ![]() ![]() |
•FIRST BACK IMPORTANCE: Is important as ![]() One of the best backs is with ![]() ![]() These stats on ![]() |
•CS/M IMPACT: As we already said ![]() This means he necessarily neeeds to be ahead/even in gold/items in order to be relevant in the game. This is why having a good CS/m is crucial. With a good laning-phase and optimal CS/m you will open your way out to take over the game. |
The key points of Teamfighting as ![]() |
•POSITIONING:![]() That's why is important to ACKNOWLEDGE THE DANGERS like TARGET/UNAVOIDABLE CCS/BURST-DAMAGE and position yourself in the teamfight in a way that you can follow it without being the primary target for the enemy team. |
•TARGET SELECTION: As ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() TAKING DOWN HIGH-DAMAGE/DPS-DEALERS is the best option as ![]() |
•FOLLOWING-UP TEAMFIGHTS: As we already said if you have knock-ups in your team things get way easier. You can wait for your team to knock a priority target up and follow it with your ![]() But if you dont have any knock-ups in your team instead things will get a bit tricky. You can stack your ![]() ![]() ![]() Otherwise if the fight is in a position where you can't stack your ![]() ![]() |
•WIND WALL POSITIONING: Correctly positioning your ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() So its important to ACKNOWLEDGE WICH SPELLS WE CAN TAKE OUT in order to utilize our ![]() |
