Kled
Kled is just a lane you don't win.
S+
Kled matchup: Kled is just a lane you don't win. He has equal early game power to you with his mount and he can stack conqueror really quickly. You have to dodge his skill shot and then play Q poke range to win but he stat checks you very easily and you cannot trade back when he dismounts unless he wastes his autos. If he doesn't and you allow him to attack you, he will remount almost instantly.
Renekton
You actually do win this matchup level 1 and 2.
S+
Renekton matchup: You actually do win this matchup level 1 and 2. However, He starts winning level 3 and after level 6 he just straight up beats you, even if you are ahead. His ult DoT procs your passive shield and even if you ult to get your shield back he instantly procs it. You win by baiting him to use one E to gap close to you meaning he only has one E to E out after he stuns you. Don't let him W and 2x E out for free.

S+
Poppy matchup: She is a wall lane that can kill you quite easily, Her entire kit counters yours and you have to be very mindful of dashes, not only for her aura but also to not e close to a wall and then get E stunned by her.
Akali
Very difficult matchup. A single misstep and you will die.
S
Akali matchup: Very difficult matchup. A single misstep and you will die. Spam EQ when she uses shroud to try and damage her, use windwall as a zoning tool, If you can bait her W and E in a single short trade without taking too much damage you have a slight window to fight. Be careful of level 6! She can oneshot you.

S
Jayce matchup: Same concept as Akali, Has the potential to oneshot you, gets very tanky in hammer form and can play for range. Look for a the window where he switches to hammer form to slam you, use your E to dash back and dodge it and re-engage.
Darius
A single misstep and you explode.
S
Darius matchup: A single misstep and you explode. Very tricky lane, Take ignite, use your E to either dash away from him when he tries to engage on you or use it to E into his Q so he doesn't get the bleed stack and the heal off if you have no other choice. Be careful of his E, Ghost and flash windows and angles.

S
Wukong matchup: Stat checks you very easily, Ult shuts you down since you can't move and it shreds so you'll have to outplay hard to kill him. He gets very tanky and gets a lot of HP.

S
Olaf matchup: Stat checks you throughout the game, After level 6 you literally cannot ult him unless you've kited him for a long time for his ult to run out. If he throws his axe too far away level 1 you can win if you play it well.
Riven
This is a lane that swings a lot as the game progresses.
S
Riven matchup: This is a lane that swings a lot as the game progresses. At level 1 and two you beat riven hard, if she doesn't Q delay she literally cannot fight back and you can stat check her with exhaust and Lethal Tempo + Q. However, Level 3 it becomes a skill matchup. She has the option of taking short trades with E W and Q, try to bait and space her 3rd Q. At level 6, even with exhaust you just automatically lose and she will outscale you HARD.

S
Zoe matchup: Extremely difficult, you have to bait her bubble and not get poked down by autos and Q while also praying she doesn't RNG exhaust or something to completely shut you down.
Zac
Very tricky, You have to essentially beat him in a full all in.
S

S
Volibear matchup: Stat checks you, has a shield, when he's stacked his autos can easily proc your passive and he can stun you. Kite his W, it's fine if he gets the first W off on you, but you cannot let him get another off or you just straight up lose. He will outscale you no matter what.

S
Warwick matchup: Even though you are technically stronger, the fact that he heals so much early game and will run barrier makes this lane very tricky. Be careful not to commit too hard and get baited by his barrier + healing.

A
Akshan matchup: Be careful level 1. Akshan is extremely strong level 1, even against a supposed counter like yasuo. You can look to trade slightly level 2 but your real window comes level 3 where you become the hard counter. He will outscale you and will be a menace in teamfights if left unchecked. Be careful not to int the first 2 levels.
