 Ahri | 3 | 50.59% | 5,707 | Skill | Skill | Win | Wait until level 3 to trade so that you have windwall to block charm. Bait out her charm and look for short trades.

Avoid ulting her when she has ult up since she can ult out to safety. | |
 Akali | 7 | 53.64% | 3,844 | Win | Skill | Skill | Yasuo wins early but Akali has tools to play safe. At level 2-3 if you bait out her shroud and avoid fighting her while its up, You want to ult akali when her ult is down and force Akali to burn her ult when you can. | |
 Akshan | 6 | 54.7% | 1,150 | Lose | Skill | Win | Difficult lane, Akshan is a power lane bully early on. Your goal is to survive till you hit your powerspikes being bersekers and vamp scepter. Avoid standing in the wave, allowing him to poke you while pushing the wave. If you survive early, you stomp Akshan | |
 Anivia | 4 | 46.35% | 1,247 | Win | Win | Skill | Equal skill, Yasuo should win because you can windwall her Q and stick onto her fairly easily. Yasuo also has the damage to kill her through her passive unlike many mages | |
 Annie | 7 | 47.12% | 1,252 | Lose | Lose | Skill | Difficult lane, Annie Q's stun does not get blocked by Yasuo's windwall. Take cleanse or exhaust for her burst and sit on a mantle early. Her jungle set up is also difficult to deal with | |
 AurelionSol | 3 | Win | Win | Win | Easy Matchup, Windwall his Q and use your E to dodge his Q, avoid his poke from W and autos. Aurelion will likely attempt to push and roam constantly in this lane, either ping your team and farm or keep your lane hard shoved to keep Aurelion in lane | |||
 Azir | 7 | 49.6% | 1,879 | Lose | Skill | Win | Hard Matchup, his early game harass is oppressive but you outscale.

 Cassiopeia | 5 | 51.06% | 752 | Skill | Skill | Skill | Skill Matchup, Cassio has low base armor and is slightly vulnerabile in the early game, try to take advantage of this. This matchup gets much harder post 6 since Yasuo will get stuck in his E animation through Cassio ult meaning you cant look away, but you can also use windwall on her E if she lands a Q. The goal here is to aim your E's so that you aren't looking directly at her | |
 Cho'Gath | 5 | Win | Lose | Skill | Can vary depending on if Cho is AP/Tank, in most cases you want to freeze the wave at tower and make Chogath die to ganks.

 Corki | 1 | 50.08% | 1,801 | Win | Win | Win | Extremely easy matchup, similar to Akshan except Corki's early game is much weaker.

 Darius | 49.76% | 4,013 | ||||||

 Fizz | 7 | 55.01% | 1,556 | Skill | Skill | Skill | Skill Matchup, sit on MR and use E every time Fizz uses E, if you play perfectly its an even matchup but if you fall behind you'll go 0/10.
