actually no. in that case its still bad. you just wasted 3.7k gold and an item slot on an item, that doesnt give you sustain, whose stats are mostly wasted, which damage wise is inferior to every other alternative, be it bloodthirster or hydra. again, a bunch of the stats is wasted. sheen effect only works on the first guy, which most of the time wont be your intended target, and doesnt scale. phage passive is insignificant. bloodthirster gives up to 70 extra ad, buffing his q damage to EVERY guy, buffing the tornado and his ult. and it gives sustain. lets say you get trinity and ie and statikk. now you have 2 slots asides from boots left. since you are yasuo you need at least 2 tanky items, so no sustain for you, and no more damage. in fights, trinity will be completely ineffective since its single target on the first guy and doesnt help otherwise. and lack of sustain doesnt help.

and if you do want to upgrade boots for some reason, again, dont go trinity. zephyr is in this case better. yes, damage wise its weaker. mobility wise however its stronger, it gives you more as, some cdr for wind wall and ult and it gives you tenacity.

tl;Dr in no situation is trinity good on yasuo.
