Playing against Yasuo

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Attack him when his passive shield is already consumed — a single auto-attack or minor spell is enough to pop it before the real trade.

2

His Wind Wall has a very long cooldown (30-18s) — once used, that's your window to harass with projectiles.

3

Avoid standing in line with your minions: Yasuo dashes through them to gap-close. Position to the side.

4

Ground CC (root, targeted stun) is very effective since he can't block them with Wind Wall.

5

Respect his 2-item power spike (Kraken + IE) — his DPS doubles thanks to 100% passive crit chance.
