Tristana vs Yasuo

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Use level 2 all-in power spike with support follow-up to punish Yasuo's melee engage reliance.
Exploit Yasuo's need for minion waves to dash by controlling wave state and spacing.
Convert winning trades into turret plates using stacked (E) and reset jumps for pressure.

Trading pattern

Stack (E) on Yasuo during committed trades, then use (W) jump only with support follow-up.
Punish (W) cooldown by forcing trades when his projectile block is down.
Avoid all-ins when Yasuo has minion wave access for dashes or his passive shield is up.

Danger windows

Respect Yasuo's level 2 (Q)+(E) combo and avoid extended trades without support.
Avoid jumping into large minion waves where Yasuo can counter-engage with (E) mobility.
Be cautious when (R) is available and he has knockup access; hold defensive tools.

Early game

Push for level 2 with support to threaten all-in before (Q)+(E) combo unlock.
Avoid jumping forward without support as Yasuo can punish with knockup and (R).
Thin waves to prevent Yasuo from using (E) mobility effectively and reduce his engage options.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (W) and (E) for sudden all-in; push wave and jump with support ready.
First completed marksman item increases burst and turret pressure; convert recalls into plates.
Late-game range and reset potential lets you safely extend fights and punish Yasuo's melee approach.

Win conditions

Force early level 2 or 3 all-ins with support to snowball lane priority and turret plates.
Use wave crashes to pressure turret with stacked (E) and reset jumps for safe damage.
Leverage resets after kills to roam or secure mid-game objectives with team advantage.
