Today I will be reviewing Yasuo, The Unforgivable, him also being debated as one of the most difficult champs next to Lee Sin, The Blind Monk.
Lore:
Yasuo was a star pupil at an Ionian sword school, him excelling in one of the most difficult sword styles in his school. One day the Noxian army attacked the sword school, Yasuo being tasked with protecting the grandmaster, in which Yasuo did valiantly, but his own pride getting in his way, Yasuo thinking that his blade can turn the tide of the war, he went into battle. The Noxians retreating, the battle being won, the school rejoiced in joy, later to their findings that the grandmaster was assassinated. Yasuo was devistated, later him being blamed for the grandmasters death them deeming him the killer he was banished. From then on Yasuo being hell bent on finding the killer and bringing him to justice.
Abilities:
Passive (Way of the wanderer):

Way of the wanderer is acctually a 2 fold ability. 1st part is that Yasuo has an wind shield that can absorb damage but the downside is that you have to charge it through movement so grabbing Boots of mobility or boots of swiftness would be a great grab for him. Also in conjoint to that shield Yasuo has another passive that doubles his critical strike meaning that if you have 25% critical chance, you now have 50% critical strike. awwww yeeeaaaaa.
Steel Tempest:

Steel Tempest is Yasuo's Q (his 1st ability), this ability has a cast cooldown of about 3 - 1 second ti being the second fastest cool down in the lineup for Yasuo. Steel Tempest is another 2 fold ability if this ability is cast and it hits twice you get a different variation to steel tempest as instead of making that usual thrusting slash forward you throw an wind whirlwind that knocks up enemies in range, this ability tiying into Yasuo's ultimate ability or " Ulty."
Wind Wall:
Wind wall is another 2 fold ability (all of his abilities are 2 fold abilities). Wind Wall's ,main use is for more of an defensive sort of things it blocking and destroying any and all projectiles no matter what the sort anything from minion mage shots all the way to Ashe's Ice Arrow ultimate. It's second ability is that it reduces the secondary cooldown on our next ability.
Sweeping Blade:

Sweeping blade is Yasuo's second ability which is the one that is affected by Yasuo's other ability Wind wall. The amount of levels you have on Wind wall affects the secondary cooldown on sweeping blade, sweeping blades initial cooldown being 1-0.5 seconds (depending on level and whatever items you have.) making it a REALLY fast cooldown and stupidly overpowered without that secondary cooldown.
Last Breath:

Last breath is Yasuo's ULTIMATE ABILITY ( Epic announcer voice with that. ). If cast in succession, Yasuo will teleport to his target keeping them into the air and slam them into the ground doing a light bit of damage. The real beef of this ability is it's second part this being an passive armor penetration buff.
Tips:

(You can be this awesome!)
1.)Yasuo is WEIRD @ -@
Yasuo does not play like every other champion. Without his wind sheild early game you can get mezzed up! I suggest buying an Doran's shield as a 1st build to absorb up a little more damage especially when you play top lane.
2.)Crits=WIN!
Yasuo's secondary passive makes him HUGE damage output overtime. This being true I suggest rushing the best source of attack speed and criticals 1st. (psst, statikk shiv.)
3.)Last but not least...
PLAY SMART! Yasuo is absolutley one of the most complicated champions to play so do not be stupid. Thank you. c:
Well that's all for another look at the League of Legends. I'm Midnight420X signing off. (Comment, like, and add me on LOL for some fun games. Always open to questions.)
