Guide to Countering Yasuo as Jayce

Tips for Playing as Jayce against Yasuo

For increased range and damage, try casting Shock Blast through the Acceleration Gate.

If you find yourself taking lots of damage, try using Jayce's Hammer Stance, as it grants you additional defenses.

Be sure to switch stances often. It will enhance your attacks and grant you quick bursts of speed.

Advice to Win Against Yasuo

Yasuo's shield from Resolve lasts only 2 seconds. Dealing damage to him will trigger it. Wait it out, then engage.

Steel Tempest is very narrow. Dodge laterally if possible.

Yasuo is at his weakest just after he has launched a whirlwind. Engage at that point.

When Yasuo lands two Steel Tempests in a row, his next will fire a tornado. Watch and listen for the associated sound to prepare to dodge.
