Overall, Yasuo sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Briar. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN.

This could indicate that Briar doesn't help protection for him to deal more damage or that their presence on the team also helps extend the match's duration. Similarly, when Yasuo is played with Briar on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Briar.
Additionally, when Yasuo plays with Briar on the same side, he typically receives a little less damage than when he fights alone. Receiving not as much damage may mean that Briar does a decent job of protecting Yasuo in team fights.

Briar has a much lower diffuclty than Yasuo. That means Yasuo players don't need to be very careful when arranging Briar teammates to play with, as they will need a much lower level of skill to cooperate well with you.
Playing together, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal physical damage. Combined, these champions should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.
In contrast, by pairing Yasuo and Briar together, you may not be granting your team very much magical damage output. We recommend you have other champs on your team that nullifies this relative hole in their abilities.
Regardless of the ability of your Briar ally, you should focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
