Yasuo vs Annie

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Yasuo is a mobile skirmisher who needs minion waves to dash and control space against Annie.
Pressure Annie early to deny her calm scaling and avoid giving her easy R picks.

Trading pattern

Stack Q and dash through minions to engage short trades before Annie can proc her stun.
Use W to block Annie's key projectiles, especially her Q and W burst combo.
Avoid trading when W is down or without minions to dash on, as you're vulnerable to Annie's stun and burst.

Danger windows

Annie's passive stun on 4th stack and R Tibbers stun combo are lethal if you get caught without W.
When your W is down, avoid extended trades as you cannot block Annie's burst spells.
Be cautious if Annie forces you under tower or when minion waves are scarce for your mobility.

Early game

Use level 2 Q plus E mobility to trade and dodge Annie's Q+W burst.
Keep the wave on your side to maintain dash targets and avoid Annie's stun stacks.
Punish Annie when she uses W to push and runs low on mana.

Power spikes

Level 2 Q plus E gives Yasuo strong early skirmishing and mobility.
Level 6 R is a major spike if you can knock Annie up for an all-in.
Annie's level 6 R and first completed item spike her burst and pick potential; respect these windows.

Win conditions

Use Q and E to maintain mobility and control space near minions to avoid Annie's stun and burst.
Punish Annie's forced pushes with W by all-inning when she is low on mana.
Look for level 6 knockups to follow up with R for kills or to force Annie out of lane.

Tip: For Yasuo vs Annie, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
