Yasuo Matchups Overview

Yasuo General information

Yasuo tips and tricks

Weave through the minion wave with your Sweeping BladeE while always leaving at least 1 minion untouched so you can get out after trading.

Wait for the optimal time to use your Last BreathR. Don’t just engage whenever anyone gets knocked up as you might be going in 1v5.

Refrain from using your Windwall Wind WallW unless you need to use it. You never know when it will come in handy to protect you from incoming ganks or global Last BreathRs.
