[2.1] Yasuo Guide - Slippery Yasuo

For the first item, I advise taking a Long Sword as I still see many people making the mistake of buying Brawler's Gloves first.

• In the early game, try to either rush Phantom Dancer or Blade of the Ruined King . Phantom Dancer first is better in games where you are always in the front lines, while Blade of the Ruined King is better when the enemies are all ranged and are unable to stop you from damaging them from close range.
• [statikk shyv] is also an item you can rush, but Phantom Dancer is just a better choice since [statikk shyv]'s passive might kill all the enemy minions that is your only source of mobility.
• Infinity Edge is very good to play as a second or third item on Yasuo because it denies the drawback of Yasuo's passive [yasuo:passive].
• Vamp items like Bloodthirster , Maw of Malmortius and Death's Dance lets Yasuo dive in and get out alive and make clutch plays.
• For boots, mostly go Gluttonous Greaves or [mercury treads] as they give survivability. Boot enchants such as [stasis enchant] and [locket enchant] help when diving the enemy back line, Teleport Enchant is for split push.
