Renekton vs Yasuo

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Renekton is a lane bully who must pressure Yasuo early to deny his scaling and roaming power.
Use high early lane pressure and short burst trades to control tempo and prevent Yasuo from freely farming or engaging.

Trading pattern

Use fury-enhanced short trades: dash in with (E), stun with empowered (W), hit (Q) for sustain, then dash out with second (E).
Punish Yasuo when his (W) is down or when he lacks minions to dash through for mobility.
Avoid extended fights where Yasuo can stack (Q) and threaten knockups; trade only when your burst is ready and fury is high.

Danger windows

Yasuo is dangerous when his second (Q) tornado knockup and (R) are available; avoid low health trades during this window.
Be cautious when (W) is up, as it blocks many of your projectiles and reduces your trade effectiveness.
Vulnerable after using both (E) casts forward without a safe exit; avoid being punished by Yasuo's mobility then.

Early game

Focus on stacking fury and using level 3 power spike to trade aggressively with (E) plus empowered (W).
Deny Yasuo minion wave control to limit his (E) mobility and punish when his (W) is down.
Avoid extended trades when fury is low or after using both (E) casts forward without a safe exit.

Power spikes

Level 3: Full combo (Q), (W), (E) enables strong burst trades; trade only with enough fury and a planned exit.
Level 6: (R) adds health and damage for all-ins; use it to convert leads into kills or plate dives.
Respect Yasuo's level 2 combo of (Q) plus (E) for quick trades and knockups; avoid giving him clean engages at this point.

Win conditions

Snowball lane advantage by stacking fury and forcing empowered short trades to chip Yasuo down.
Deny Yasuo minion wave access to limit his (E) mobility and prevent him from engaging safely.
Use level 6 (R) to force all-ins or dives when Yasuo is low or trapped under wave pressure.
