Syndra pokes Yasuo down with Q while he tries to farm and stack passive shield, but she must respect his Windwall, which blocks her Q, W throw, and even her R. From level 3 the QE stun is her main tool: holding it to punish Yasuo's dash-in stops his engage cold. She should avoid dumping spheres carelessly so her stun is always available when he commits.
