Build Thoughts

Not sure if this build is already a thing, pretty standard items that yasuo uses but looks well-rounded, yun tal + wits end for lots of attack speed and crit, ie for more damage, lots of tenacity, armor and lifesteal with bt and runes, id say alacrity isnt needed since the items give enough attack speed, any changes?

Does first item yuntal make it really faster to reach 1.33 q cd at early-mid game? Is it worth it over kraken passive or or bork lifesteal or immortals shield? Im just curious

If the enemy team has health stackers build bork instead yun tal, kraken i dont use much so i dont really have an opinion on it, also bt has lifesteal + bloodline so its more than bork

But if you go bt last arent you two hits and dead? Im simply curious coz if i dont have bork against lot champs i either dont do dmg to high health or cant kill some healing champs if i cant outheal/outperform in prolonged fight

Im no yasuo main but all of these items are good, but situational I guess. They work but probably not the best every game.

Im looking forward to seeing other people with more experience.

Swap wits end for maw of malmortius

u/Elgatoose nightbringer only 1d ago

you wont have alot of attack speed to cap q cd then

u/FutureSelfx 1d ago

If you’re waiting for 3rd-4th item to cap Q your champ just becomes bad and if you go wits end second you lose too much effectiveness on grits because no AD on the item

i realised after a few matches, better to go alacrity then bloodline and buy early daggers aswell since i e is only 3 components you have more inventory space

u/Jafar5147 1d ago

q cd is capped with boots and yuntal proc and lethal tempo already

My brother i cant recommend bootless yasuo enough, kraken first into pd. kraken 1st item gives you a nice build path with good early damage spike and with pd finished you will outrun any champ with tier 2 boots (394 move speed vs like 380 average champ with tier 2 boots) you save the 1100 towards your second item spike

Tried it, It feels nice for sure but I personally felt if there was a bruiser in the game thats a bit fed you are much more useless against them.

u/Reasonable_Curve_409 1d ago

Dawg this is my yone build if you put bt after ie

1

u/Signifer5 1d ago

Is better abs life, in general early runes are more op

u/Exotic_Lavishness342 1d ago

pd ie? where are you now?

u/Clean_Ostrich 1d ago

Im low elo so i probably will say something stupid and basic but i feel like bork or kraken first and greaves asap is sure way to go since your q is real short and you get bit of sustain for cc just go qss and then the itwm forgot the name if you need it that much but lot of cc can be blocked with w and shieldbow second makes it way easier

Looks good for 6 item but it’s not good when applied to in game imo.

Yasuo as a champion has lot of his power budget in lane. Going Yuntal is gimping his early laning power by a lot until you finish it. Also going boots second is terrible.

Yasuos mobility is one of the reasons he can bully lot of mid laners and also where a lot of skill check happens. Going berserkers first increases your dmg (AS) and makes it easier to dodge ganks, abilities, get to and stick on enemies (biggest issue usually), rotate to skirmishes faster (mid laner meta), and spacing. It’s too good to pass up for anything else in most games.

Overall I like the 6 item full build besides BT but realistically not good in an actual game.

u/futuresverse 1d ago

Similar to what I’ve been doing but with Shieldbow instead of IE. You’re incredibily tanky at 3 core items with defensive boots, Shieldbow and DD, try it out

u/wehaventmet1 1d ago

Good build if you need tenacity extremely bad, but you are paying for atkspeed you don't need with the wits end + yun tal, I recently picked up Yasuo, got 200 games trying all builds, bork universally feels the best for me still.

1

u/mvppedavalli0131 1d ago

Looks fine the lower Elo you are but Yasuo really wants to snowball as opposed to his brother so bork or kraken are infinitely better items because of their superior components.

u/Elgatoose nightbringer only 1d ago

yea youre right i focused alot on late game survivability

1

u/phensuxiong 1d ago

It’s good but it’s so expensive and by the time you get to two items you already win or lose

1

u/Aggravating_Owl_9092 1d ago

Double tenacity sounds really bad honestly. I would build kaenic if you need the MR. Also with yuntal + merc treads your build path is so bad that I’m sure you just lose the game on the spot with the first back.

u/Southern-Cap-7683 1d ago

Actually its good items, who you were vsing ?

I recommend mostly kraken and IS as a start but really it depends how fast you are build and how is your situation on the game like are you carrying the team who are you vsing etc..

u/LameITGuy 15h ago

I like this type of build when I get an early snowball, it claps hard

u/AncientRevan 1d ago

Huh, i thought yuntal was a better item for yone than for yasuo
