How to win lane as Singed against Yasuo · 55.55% win rate (2,155 Emerald+ games, lolalytics, sampled July 2026) · Matchup data reviewed on patch 26.15
Poison-kite the dash, fling him out of the windwall combo, and proxy to deny his stacks.
Track: Yasuo's W — Wind Wall (25–17s cooldown). Blocks projectiles — but NOT your poison aura. Your damage flows right through it.
Read from Singed's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Yasuo.
This is Singed's own plan; across 2,155 pooled games the lane is Singed-favoured.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Yasuo | Yasuo's Steel Tempest stacks freely at level 1 with no Fling to deter him — walk under tower or hug the wave rather than contesting the minion line. |
| Level 2 | Yasuo | Sweeping Blade cannot re-target the same enemy for several seconds, so after he dashes through you he needs a minion — survive it and never Flash after a dash. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Fling comes online and creates a brief parity — if he dashes to you, hurl him behind and run Poison Trail through him, but his mobility still lets him escape a full combo. |
| Levels 4-5 | Singed | Your proxy pattern makes Poison Trail a resource-denial tool; he must leave the minion wave or watch it die under his tower, and chasing you into the cloud is a losing trade. |
| Level 6 | Singed | Insanity Potion's stat dump — armor, magic resist, movement speed, and regeneration all at once — means he can no longer burst you in a short trade window and Poison Trail sustains the extended fight. |
| First item | Singed | Grounding, not slow, is what shuts Sweeping Blade off — land Mega Adhesive on him and the dash simply will not fire, then Fling replants him in the Rylai's-slowed cloud. |
| Two+ items | Yasuo | Infinity Edge and a third crit item give Yasuo a Last Breath burst window that exceeds your regeneration — avoid extended 1v1s in the open and side-lane where he cannot easily group for the ult setup. |
Yasuo owns levels 1-2 cleanly — his Steel Tempest stacks into a knock-up and Sweeping Blade lets him dash through minions to stay in your face, and you have no answer yet since Fling requires him to close to melee range first. Do not try to run at him early; his dash gives him the same mobility your passive gives you and he can trade on his terms. Hug the wave, let him push, and concede the CS pressure rather than standing in his Steel Tempest corridor. The moment he over-extends past your third minion line, that is your Fling window — hurl him behind you and immediately trail back through him with Poison Trail before he can Sweeping Blade away.
