How to play it

As Yasuo is a melee character, use [E]-[W] on lane to both clear lane and deal damage to him. Keep in mind that Yasuo destroy voidlings quickly to stop your lane push, ultimately getting rid of Malzahar’s advantage. Use basic attacks to hinder Yasuo from getting rid of voidlings quickly.
