Summoner spells

As Yasuo we can use lot of summoner spells. I prefer Ignite + Flash on MID and TOP.
Flash is great summoner spell. Great for Yasuos combos >].

Ignite is giving true damage to enemies. Great for combos too.

Exhaust is great if you are not using boots as well. Try it too ^*^.

Masteries

MID


The main mastery on mid will be Warlord's Bloodlust .
-Moving or attacking will make an attack Energized.
-Your energized attacks restore health equal to 3-40% total attack damage (at levels 1-18) and grant 30% movement speed for 0.75 seconds.
-If the energized attack critically strikes, the heal crits as well (further increased by crit damage modifiers).

TOP


The main mastery on mid will be Grasp of the Undying.
-Every 4 seconds in combat, your next attack against an enemy champion deals damage equal to 3% of your max Health and heals you for 1.5% of your max Health (halved for ranged champions, deals magic damage)

Runes

MID


1. Greater Glyph of Magic Resist (+1.34 magic resist)- good to counter APs
2. Greater Quintessence of Attack Damage (+2.25 attack damage)- DMG!:3
3. Greater Quintessence of Attack Speed (+4.5% attack speed)- good for Attack speed as well. So buy it!:p
4. Greater Mark of Attack Damage (+0.95 attack damage)-more DMG.
5. Greater Seal of Armor (+1 armor)-Armor.. nice to have at all.

TOP


1. Greater Quintessence of Attack Damage (+2.25 attack damage)-More DMG.
2. Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist (+0.16 magic resist per level)- nice to have this one.
3. Greater Mark of Attack Damage (+0.95 attack damage)-More DMG is nice.
4. Greater Seal of Armor (+1 armor)-Need armor!:P

Farming

MID


As Yasuo on MID you will need to farm more than on TOP. Get the build ASAP on MID its more important than on TOP lane. Use Steel Tempest to kill minions. Dont go back too often but if you are low HP its better to go back. Yasuo dont have mana so you can farm mutch longer than with AP/AD champs with mana. Use Steel Tempest to kill minions and get bonus cash for them. With Bandit mastery its easy to get money faster. Try to get 150 or 280+ creep score at the end of the game.

1. Farm with Steel Tempest.
2. Use Bandit a lot.
3. Get like.. 150+ creep score.


TOP


As Yasuo on TOP your will need to farm.. not much but u will need your build fast so try to get kills and try to get some farm i think 100 or 180+ creep score is nice to the end of the game. Use Grasp of the Undying for stealing HP from your enemy and stay on lane as long as you can. Go back only in case of low HP or other basic problems.

1. Farm with Steel Tempest.
2. Use Grasp of the Undying to steal HP from enemy.
3. Get like.. 100+ creep score.

Items

MID


On mid we are going to start with these few items whitch can get us First Blood with little bit of practice.
Doran's Blade nice item to start for us.
Health Potion standart item for start.
Stealth Ward u know this xd.


Then we are going to upgrade your build. We need crit. strike chance first.

Zeal for critical
Health Potion if its needed


Next is upgrade of our Zeal to Phantom Dancer

Phantom Dancer is very important for Yasuo so build it!
B. F. Sword if do you have money


There is next VERY important upgrade for our Yasuo. We will buy Infinity Edge whitch give us great portion of damage for killing enemies! :P.
Infinity Edge IMPORTANT item for us.

Black Cleaver Great item against , , , and more.


With these items on mid you can easily win lane and get great push and score. >]

We are going to start with some standard items.
Doran's Blade/ Doran's Shield more in chapter "Doran's blade vs Doran's shield - Which one is better?".
Health Potion need this.
Stealth Ward u know it >D.


On first back we will need to buy Zeal and B. F. Sword if you have money..

Zeal important as first item for upgrade.

Team Fights

Yasuo is nice champion to Team Fightes. He is OP with a lot of champions (more in chart "combos champions"). Try to connect to the teamfights as well. You as Yasuo can do a lot in teamfights specially with little bit of practice. Try to kill ADCs first and tanks or supports at last place.. They will not be a problem with this builds.

1. Connect to every TeamFights if its posible.
2. Try to be useful.
3. Kill ADCs first and tanks at last places.
4. Protect your team against dying.

Helping to team

Ganks? With Yasuo?.. Yes of course! Yasuo is great champion for ganks. Specially with build he Is important in TeamFights. First of all try to play your lane first 10 minutes if on bot aren't problems. After 10 minutes you will have some kills as well. Watch minimap, minimap is useful for us. Minimap is giving us information about enemies on map. Watch movement of enemy jungler if he will be on TOP jungle - You gank BOT lane and if he will be BOT jungle than gank TOP or push your lane. Everything is useful .. except flaming, 0/10/0 score.. Try to help BOT or TOP if they are losing lane. What about jungler ? Your jungler ? You can help him with dragons because you have Wind Wall that stopes dragons basic attacks and as Yasuo we have great damage so.. use it too for kiling dragons.

1. Secure your lane.
2. Help on other lanes .
3. Push your lane and the others.
4. Gank other lanes and get better score.
5. Help your jungler.

BotrK vs BT - Which one is better?

In my build you can see Blade of the Ruined King and Bloodthirster.. Whitch one is better to use on Yasuo?

Blade of the Ruined King:
    Total Price: 3300 Recipe Price: 800
    40 Attack Damage
    25% Attack Speed
    15% Life Steal

Bloodthirster:
    Total Price: 3700 Recipe Price: 1150
    75 Attack Damage
    UNIQUE Passive: +20% Lifesteal.

Because Yasuo is based on his ability such is Steel Tempest in most of cases Bloodthirster is better because Bloodthirster gives us DMG for Steel Tempest and Last Breath as well. Blood thirster is also great against some poke champions such is or , and others.

But if you need Attack speed against some ADCs or other fast champions then in this case is Blade of the Ruined King better to use on Yasuo. Also with this item you have more survivability, more peel with active and better kiting with Attack Speed.

Combos champions/spells

Yasuo is great with a lot of champions in this game. Specially with Malphite he is OP. Do you have Malphite in game ? Use him! Get more Kills together with your "R" spells. Malphite is great friend of Yasuo. They have nice ganks together.

Vel'Koz is speciality with Yasuo. Vel'Koz can use Tectonic Disruption with
Yasuos Last Breath.. nice combo to team fights.

Alistar can be great with Yasuo too.. because of his spells. Very strong duo!

Lee Sin is nice with Yasuos Last Breath.. Easy kills for both..

Azir with Yasuo is very strong combo! If Yasuo is TOP and Azir is on MiD is easy to get some free kills on MID and TOP too.

Cho'Gath is great with him again.. strong duo. :)


Try more champion combos on your own.


Standard combos on MID/TOP:


There are lot of spell combos to use with Yasuo. For farming use Steel Tempest because Sweeping Blade haves long cooldown on target.
Use Steel Tempest for damaging creeps and champions too. Stack Steel Tempest for its wind form and hit creeps and enemy champion for great damage on long range.

I've found nice video abouth Yasuos combos. Let's take a look at it >}
