Champion Portrait of Yasuo
Yasuo
Not Favored
35947%+85+316Level 1, Yasuo is extremely strong. Never push into him early. Yasuo can also use the minions against you to gap close and zone you similar to Irelia.

Akali
Favored
32845%+38+289Take Ignite/Teleport for the Akali matchup. Level 1 if you don't see Akali in the lane, walk up and try to see where she is and abuse the fact that your Q outranges Akali's. DO NOT push early and let akali push in early.

Champion Portrait of Sylas
Sylas
Easy
31351%+260+947Take Conquerer in this matchup. This matchup is mainly about spacing. Try to position yourself or your shadow in a way you can trade on him without him being able to EE and trade back. Be careful of short trading sylas level one if he starts. Level 2 you should win an extended trade with him. From level 3 sylas is able to start trading back. Try to hold your ult until after he ults unless you know you have in him lethal range. You hard win until 2 items or when he gets zhonyas. The matchup gets a lot more playable for him since he can zhonyas your R.
