Playing against Yasuo as Lux?
Hey guys,
I would really like some help on how to play this matchup.
I often pick Lux and the enemy will pick yasuo in response. I feel like this is really a nightmare for Lux for mainly 3 reasons.
1: you can never hit anything. Yasuos E gives him enough mobility to prevent you from ever hitting a skillshot.
2: even if you hit something it does not matter. His passive shield will be up and prevent a significant amount of damage.
3: In lane but especially in lategame, the Windwall just turns off my champion. Yeah I can still Ult, but that is not the most reliable to hit without Q or at least E slow.
So what can you really do? So far I have come up with 3 solutions
1: ban Yasuo (I always band zed, can't for the life of me play against that champ)
2: dodge when they pick yasuo (I would do this but since dodging gives a penalty immediately id like to avoid it)
3: only pick lux when I see enemy mid or Yasuo is banned
Any advice is welcome. Is this just a skill issue? I have played many matchups as Lux and none feels as bad as this one. Absolutely no agency in the game.
Elo is Plat 1 / Emerald 4 if that matters
Thanks in advance:)
