How to win lane as Yasuo against Anivia · 50.55% win rate over 2,265 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Yasuo | Level 1 is yours: you out-range her and her Q is a slow, dashable skillshot. |
| Level 2 | Yasuo | Level 2 stays yours as she's immobile and mana-gated with no punish without Q. |
| Level 3 | Yasuo | Level 3 is yours because you dodge Q on the wave and punish the cooldown. |
| Levels 4-5 | Yasuo | Levels 4-5 remain yours: she can't self-peel your dash without landing Flash Frost. |
| Level 6 | Yasuo | Level 6 stays yours: Glacial Storm only slows and doesn't stop your dive. |
| First item | Yasuo | First item is yours: crit Q's punch through the Rebirth egg and Wind Wall denies her combo. |
| Two+ items | Yasuo | With 2+ items you dominate: one crit sequence bursts egg and bird before she resets. |
Levels 1-2 are yours: your Q out-ranges her and her Flash Frost is a slow, telegraphed skillshot you dash to dodge. She's mana-hungry and immobile, so shove her in and threaten every step-up; without landing Q she has no way to punish you.
