Yasuo Passive Ability
Introduction
Pros
|
+ High Mobility + Good burst damage + Still has damage after burst + High crit chance + Manaless + Fast ult cooldown + Shield with passive + Great adaptability |
Yasuo is a champion which is hard to deal with because of his adaptability, mobility, and fast cooldowns. He is great at getting to the back line bursting the high damage dealers down then being able to deal with the front line afterwards. |
Cons
|
+ Relies on q skill shot + Hard to master + No natural peel + Ult not always available in a fight + Evade requires an enemy to use it on + Adaptability makes choosing items hard |
The problem with Yasuo is that he relies on his q and his ult for a clean engage. This is not always possible and the shield can only block so much damage. Also because of how adaptive he is with his items it is easy to buy items that are not good for your situation. |
Runes






- For marks I take
Greater Mark of Attack Damage for a faster clear time in the jungle and easier last hitting when covering lanes. An alternative to this is taking greater mark of armor penetration which will allow more damage in the mid to late game. A third option is
Greater Mark of Attack Speed as this both increases your overall damage and lowers the cooldown of your q.
- When it comes to seals I personally feel like defense in the jungle should be your precedence which means I grab some
Greater Seal of Armor. These could also be replaced with
Greater Seal of Health and
Greater Seal of Scaling Health if the enemy team is all AP and you want better stats for when you gank.
- I personally like
Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist as you quite often don't have to worry about the enemy magic dealers till the mid and late game and these give more magic resist after level 6 than
Greater Glyph of Magic Resist. You can also grab
Greater Glyph of Attack Speed for a little extra damage and cooldown reduction on your q.
- With Yasuo you have a tremendous amount of versitility with your quints. I prefer to take three
Greater Quintessence of Attack Speed. This gives you faster clear speed early and lowers the cooldown on your q which is your primary damage source. Another option is to take
Greater Quintessence of Attack Damage but if you do this I highly recommend you take attack speed elsewhere in your runes because ofke you get enough armor pen with your ult early on and late game you can compensate with a last whisper.
For skills you want to max your




Alternatively you can max


I personally like a starting with hunter machete

The core items that you want on twisted treeline are


Now here is where yasuo can take a lot of different routes he can become a full on burst assassin and destroy anyone in a 1v1 or he can become more of a bruiser where he provides alot of damage while still being able to survive a teamfight. After you get your core items you must decide what will be better for you team. If you are feed I recommend you go more assassin building a
