Yasuo vs Lissandra

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Yasuo is a mobile melee skirmisher who needs minion waves for E mobility and to control space with Q.
Pressure Lissandra to avoid giving her a calm, controlled wave state where she can safely farm and set up engages.

Trading pattern

Stack Q and dash through minions to maintain mobility and threaten knockups for R follow-up.
Use W to block Lissandra Q and mitigate poke, but respect her W root range to avoid getting locked down.
Punish Lissandra when she uses Lissandra E forward without follow-up by committing to short trades.

Danger windows

Be cautious when W and Yasuo's passive shield are down, as Lissandra can punish with her W root and R stun.
Respect Lissandra's R lockdown window; avoid all-ins without knockup or allied follow-up.
Lissandra's E flank path can be predicted and punished; watch for her engage angles.

Early game

Use level 2 power spike with Q plus E to trade aggressively before Lissandra unlocks R lockdown.
Keep the wave on your side to maintain E mobility and punish Lissandra when she tries to farm with Lissandra Q poke.
Avoid extended trades without W as Lissandra's W root punishes melee commits.

Power spikes

Yasuo's major spikes: level 2 Q+E for early trades, level 6 R after knockup, and first completed item.
Respect Lissandra's level 6 R for lockdown and her first completed AP or utility item spike.

Win conditions

Use Q and E to control space and keep minion waves for mobility to deny Lissandra a safe farming state.
Exploit cooldowns on Lissandra's W and R by engaging when they are down.
Secure knockups to enable R all-ins and snowball lane pressure before Lissandra can set up lockdown combos.

Tip: For Yasuo vs Lissandra, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
