League of Legends: Wild Rift Yasuo Beyblade and Keyblade Combo Guide

To execute Yasuo’s advanced combos in League of Legends: Wild Rift, you must reduce Steel Tempest’s (Q) cooldown to its 1.33-second minimum cap using bonus Attack Speed. Once this cooldown threshold is met, you can chain Sweeping Blade (E), Steel Tempest (Q), Flash, and Last Breath (R) to deliver unreactable knock-ups and maximize burst damage.

Attack Speed Requirements and Cooldown Thresholds

Yasuo’s Steel Tempest cooldown scales down exclusively through bonus Attack Speed rather than Ability Haste. The Airblade and Keyblade combos cannot be performed at early levels because Steel Tempest will not reset in time to fit a second activation inside a single airborne window.

• Minimum Q Cap: 1.33 seconds. This cooldown is mandatory to reset Steel Tempest before an airborne target lands.
• Buffer Mechanic: If Steel Tempest has 0.5 seconds or less remaining on its cooldown while Yasuo is mid-dash with Sweeping Blade, the ability buffers and automatically ignores that remaining half-second.
• Early Core Items: Rush Attack Speed boots (such as Berserker's Greaves) alongside items like Solari Chargeblade or Blade of the Ruined King to reach the 1.33-second floor by mid-game.
• Lethal Tempo Rune: Fully stacking Lethal Tempo in a skirmish provides temporary bonus Attack Speed that temporarily lowers your Q cooldown to the 1.33-second threshold before full item completion.

How to Perform the Beyblade (E-Q3 + Flash)

The Beyblade turns a standard dash into an instant, unavoidable circular knock-up by using Flash to reposition the active hitbox onto your target.

1. Stack Gathering Storm: Strike targets twice with Steel Tempest to activate your third-cast tornado charge (Q3).
2. Dash on an Initial Unit: Cast Sweeping Blade (E) on an enemy minion, monster, or frontliner to begin your dash travel.
3. Buffer the Circular Slash: Press Steel Tempest (Q) during the dash travel. Do not wait for the dash animation to finish, or Yasuo will cast a linear forward tornado instead of a circular spin.
4. Flash to the Target: Tap and aim Flash toward the enemy champion before the dash concludes. Yasuo teleports instantly and releases the circular knock-up at the Flash destination.

If you press Flash after the dash animation finishes, the knock-up triggers at your starting position, wasting your summoner spell.

How to Perform the Airblade (E-Q + R)

The Airblade adds an extra circular Steel Tempest spin before activating Last Breath (R). This sequence transfers the spin's damage directly into the ultimate and gives you one stack of Gathering Storm immediately after landing, meaning you need only one subsequent Q strike to charge your next tornado.

1. Airborne Trigger: Knock an enemy airborne using your own linear Q3 tornado or an ally's knock-up.
2. Pause for Cooldown: Allow Steel Tempest to finish resetting while the target remains suspended.
3. Dash and Buffer Spin: Cast Sweeping Blade (E) onto the airborne target or an adjacent unit, instantly pressing Steel Tempest (Q) mid-dash.
4. Cancel into Last Breath: Press Last Breath (R) before the E-Q spin animation completes. Yasuo blinks to the airborne target, deals the buffered E-Q damage alongside the ultimate, and retains one Q stack upon landing.

The Keyblade: Combining Beyblade and Airblade

The Keyblade integrates the Beyblade engage directly into an Airblade finish, locking down a target from full health.

Critical Execution Rules

• Stepping-Stone Requirement: Sweeping Blade applies an on-target cooldown ring that prevents you from dashing through the same unit twice in rapid succession. You must use an enemy minion or secondary unit for the initial Beyblade dash so the primary champion remains available for the subsequent Airblade dash.
• Crowd Control Risks: Hard crowd control or Exhaust applied during your initial dash cancels the buffered Q spin before the Flash input registers. Confirm enemy defensive tools are on cooldown before committing Flash.
