Yasuo has a weak early in the same sense that Talon does.

Sure, both of them have poor lane phases against ranged or tank midlaners, and sure they both should have weak lanes. But in the right hands, either can abuse the enemy laner, especially in lower levels of play. I've seen many mages overestimate what a Yasuo, Talon, or Zed can do and zone themselves when they don't need to be.

His damage ramps up if he plays in a specific manner or if you don't trade back with him when the chance arises, he also maintains kill potential in lane until you back with a gold advantage on him, just like most other assassin mids.

I hate Yasuo more than the next guy, but come on, at least make a good argument against him.
