Except for rare builds, Yasuo deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Garen deals mainly physical damage (75.23%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.
Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Garen, ranking 14th (versus 18th for Yasuo) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (1.9 versus 1.4) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.
In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Yasuo player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Garen player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.
