Who Wins
- You lose early trades levels 1-3 due to Yasuo's superior poke with Q and passive shield, plus his mobility advantage.
- At level 6, you gain a significant power spike with R that allows you to win all-ins if you land it properly, as it provides setup for your full combo.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves stacking passive on minions first, then engaging with E-Q reset through marked targets to gap close.
- Always try to land E stun before committing to extended trades, as missing it leaves you vulnerable to his superior sustained damage.
Wave Control
- Focus on slow pushing waves to build minion advantages for your Q resets and passive stacking.
- Avoid hard shoving unless you can recall, as Yasuo can freeze and deny your Q mobility tools while poking you down.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never engage without minions nearby for Q resets, as you'll be stuck in melee range without escape options.
- Don't waste E carelessly for poke, as it's your only reliable setup tool and has a much longer cooldown than Yasuo's mobility spells.
