Yasuo vs Orianna

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Yasuo is a melee skirmisher who needs minion waves to use E for mobility and short trades.
Pressure Orianna early to disrupt her ball control and prevent her from safely scaling with her control mage kit.

Trading pattern

Stack Q and use E through minions to close distance and threaten knockups.
Use W to block Orianna Q or W poke but respect that it doesn't block all damage.
Commit on knockup threats to maximize damage and force Orianna's defensive cooldowns.

Danger windows

When W is down, Yasuo is vulnerable to Orianna's poke and displacement.
Without minion waves, Yasuo loses mobility and can be punished by Orianna's poke and controlled spacing.
Orianna's R can displace and set up lethal combos, so avoid extended fights when it's available and aimed.

Early game

Reach level 2 quickly to unlock Q plus E mobility for stronger trades.
Use minion waves to dash around and avoid Orianna's poke while looking for knockup opportunities.
Punish Orianna's longer Q cooldown early before she gains mana and AP.

Power spikes

Yasuo's level 2 with Q and E unlocks strong mobility and trade potential.
Yasuo's level 6 R powers up all-ins if you have knockup access.
Orianna's level 6 R is a major threat to respect in all-ins and skirmishes.

Win conditions

Use Q and E to control space and pressure Orianna before she scales.
Force Orianna to use Orianna E shield defensively, then punish cooldowns with knockups.
Reach level 6 with knockup access to all-in safely and snowball lane control.

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