Guide to Countering Yasuo as Taliyah

Tips for Playing as Taliyah against Yasuo

Remember, you don't always have to ride Weaver's Wall.

Try to throw enemies into Unraveled Earth using Seismic Shove.

Once you have Rylai's Crystal Scepter, casting Threaded Volley at enemies chasing you is a great way of making them regret everything.

Advice to Win Against Yasuo

Yasuo's shield from Resolve lasts only 2 seconds. Dealing damage to him will trigger it. Wait it out, then engage.

Steel Tempest is very narrow. Dodge laterally if possible.

Yasuo is at his weakest just after he has launched a whirlwind. Engage at that point.

When Yasuo lands two Steel Tempests in a row, his next will fire a tornado. Watch and listen for the associated sound to prepare to dodge.
