Champion Build Guide

Pros and Cons

Pros

→ Huge team fight potential
→ Combo synergy with champions that have a knock up ability
→ Can burst damage to less durable enemies while having great sustain against tank champions.
→ Extremely maneuverable when using the E skill
→ Playing around the W-Wind Wall can allow him to completely dismantle ranged enemy matchups
→ He becomes extremely strong due to his Ultimate R-Last Breath crowd control as well the bonus armor penetration he gets upon using it. Combined with his item powerspikes, it makes him a force to be reckoned with, even if he is behind in lane.

Cons

→ Although a power house, he is very squishy and can easily be burst down if he happens to mis-step. This can happen quite a lot if he is pushing the sidelanes, and overextends.
→ Very weak early and susceptible to enemy junglers.
→ Crowd control will make him an easy target without mobility.
→ Attack damage mid laner, so your team will need an ability power jungler or top laner.
→ Improper usage of his W-Wind Wall can get him killed in the lane. This is especially true against ranged matchups. The alternative is to back off, which allows the enemy to just zone Yasuo off the wave.

Skill

PASSIVE ABILITY

WAY OF THE WANDERER

✦ doubles his total critical strike chance from all other sources, but his critical strikes deal reduced damage.
✦ also gains flow for moving around on the map. At 100 stacks of flow, and upon taking damage from enemy units, Yasuo consumes all the flow stacks to shield himself.

STEEL TEMPEST

✦ Thrusts his sword in the target direction, dealing physical damage to enemies hit. This ability can critically strike. If this ability hits an enemy, Yasuo gains a Gathering Storm stack for 6 seconds. On gaining two stacks of Gathering Storm, this ability consumes all the stack to unleash a whirlwind that travels in the target direction, which deals the same damage and knocks up all enemies hit for a second.

WIND WALL

✦ Creates a wall of wind in the target direction which slowly drifts forward and blocks all hostile non-turret projectiles that attempt to pass through it.
✦ Refrain from using your Windwall W - Wind Wall unless you need to use it. You never know when it will come in handy to protect you from incoming ganks or global R - Last Breath s.

SWEEPING BLADE

✦ Dashes a fixed distance toward the target enemy unit, dealing magic damage to them. Yasuo cannot dash to the same target more than once every few seconds.
✦ Weave through the minion wave with your E - Sweeping Blade while always leaving at least 1 minion untouched so you can get out after trading

LAST BREATH

✦ Blinks to a knocked up enemy and holds them airborne while generating maximum flow and dealing physical damage. For the next 15 seconds, 's critical strikes gain 50% bonus armor penetration.
✦ Wait for the optimal time to use your R - Last Breath. Don’t just engage whenever anyone gets knocked up as you might be going in 1v5.

Summoner Spells

Summoner Spells
Always

		Flash is a summoner spell in every match of Yasuo,will help you secure kills, escape, pull off combos, and a lot more

Favorite

		Ignite you can have more of a kill pressure on lane, its cooldown is pretty low. It gives you a lot of advantage in 1v1 teamfights, giving you an advantage very early in the game

Situational

		You can replace scorching with Exhaut, even when going with a Mage you should also leave this spell, because Steel Tempest - Q has a very fast cooldown, the enemy is slow 30% and reducing damage by 40% for 3s will help the enemy take a lot of damage

		Cleanse against Cassiopeia, Zoe, Ahri, Lux , Morgana,... Cleanse gets even more valuable the more enemy champions have hard cc so look out for that when deciding if it's really worth to give up the damage Ignite gives you.
