How to win lane as Yasuo against Lissandra · 44.58% win rate (14,384 Emerald+ games, lolalytics, sampled July 2026) · Matchup data reviewed on patch 26.15
Nothing she casts is wallable and her root catches the web mid-dash — the anti-Yasuo mage; farm the shield trades and all-in only off jungle knockups.
Track: Lissandra's E — Glacial Path (Claw, 24–12s cooldown). Her engage and escape in one button — she is immobile while it is down.
Read from Yasuo's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Lissandra.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Level 1: Ice Shard reaches 725 to your 475, so she chips you off the wave for free from the opening minute. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Level 2: Ring of Frost roots point-blank on 10s, so her answer to your step-up is CC no wall stops. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3: E weaves the wave for CS, but her shard slow feeds the root that lands on whatever it catches. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Level 4-5: Wind Wall eats Ice Shard, but Ring of Frost stays point-blank and completely untouched by it. |
| Level 6 | Lissandra | Level 6: Frozen Tomb is a targeted 550-range stun on 120s, and self-cast it makes her untargetable mid-dive. |
| First item | Lissandra | First item: your crit spike closes trades, but she still owns the only unwallable CC in the lane. |
| Two+ items | Lissandra | Late: she engages and peels for her team, and a targeted stun ends your commit window every 80 seconds. |
Ice Shard is a 725-range slow on 7s at rank 1 and it out-ranges everything you own until you dash. Weave E through minions for CS, wall the shard line when she steps up, and do not dash to her face: Ring of Frost roots point-blank on 10s and no wall touches it. Track Glacial Path (Claw): 24s at rank 1, 12s maxed, 1050 range — while it is down she cannot reach you or leave.
