The strength of Yasuo's mobility and survivability is more insured by the shield and wind wall. A single bit of damage removes the shield however and the Wind wall can only projectiles and not ground targetted spells (and a few other abilities).

Using his dash to avoid damage would take a lot of skill to do seeing as you can't dash through the same person twice in quick succession and you don't get to control where the minions are when you do it. Lastly in mid lane some of the better mage choices are either assassins with powerful gap closers or mages with great zone power and AOE damage.

Plenty of champs would punish Yasuo to even be in a minion wave to farm much less give him the chance to evade all their damage.
