Jayce into Yasuomedium

Overview

Use Jayce's ranged poke and lane pressure to deny Yasuo free all-in setups with mobility.
Prioritize empowered through poke to build health leads before melee trades.
Force Yasuo into reactive play by crashing waves and resetting lane tempo on your terms.

Trading pattern

Use empowered through poke to soften Yasuo before committing to hammer trades.
Only switch to hammer form for short burst trades when Yasuo's is down or after landing poke.
Punish Yasuo's missed tornado stacks or cooldown by stepping forward for trades or wave control.

Danger windows

Yasuo is dangerous with second tornado knockup and follow-up; respect spacing and save disengage.
Vulnerable after hammer engage if Yasuo counters or is ready; avoid overcommit without poke lead.
Be cautious when mana is low or empowered misses; Yasuo can exploit reduced poke pressure.

Early game

Start in cannon form to harass Yasuo and force him to last-hit under pressure.
Avoid extended melee trades early; poke with + before Yasuo can engage.
Manage mana to keep poke consistent and deny Yasuo windows to all-in after cooldowns.

Power spikes

First damage item spike boosts poke and burst; pressure waves and force Yasuo defensive.
Mid-game poke siege with empowered controls lane approaches; set vision and poke before committing.
Respect Yasuo's level 2 combo and level 6 ; avoid clean all-ins and punish after ult use.

Win conditions

Use ranged poke and empowered to create health leads, then convert to wave and plate control.
Deny Yasuo minion wave setups needed for mobility by controlling wave state and zoning.
Leverage tempo leads from poke pressure to force Yasuo reactive, snowballing lane dominance into side-lane pressure.
