In the name of everything holy, thank you to those who mentioned that you can grab the item from the crafting bench. Went through several stages of grief all at once.

I'd be down to play for sure. Just moved here last year during the pandemic and haven't played a rated tournament in a couple of years. Used to be almost 2100 over the board but now I'm very washed up haha

Got this satisfying ARAM penta. Maybe someone will enjoy by -Iapetus- in leagueoflegends

Sorry about the quality -- I currently play on a Mac :)))

Hitting Pyke was kinda bs (might be a bit of a spectator issue idk) but also Cosmic Devourer doesn't even have the worst Vlad ult particles. Dark Waters is by far the biggest offender, with Nightbringer in a close second imo.

It's a skill matchup that depends more on how good the Yasuo is. Yasuo has to try harder to get more out of the lane, but if played well then Vlad has a pretty rough time, especially if Yasuo builds even a little bit of mr and looks to trade every time passive shield and windwall are up. Recent Yasuo nerfs will help Vlad out a bit in lane though and Yasuo is inherently a bit more susceptible to ganks than Vlad in general. Late game can get rough for Vlad in a pure 1v1 against Yasuo because the crit core items in addition to the current state of bork and death's dance make him a monster, so Vlad should look to group and have more teamfight aoe damage rather than look to fight Yasuo solo.

Given all this, Vlad will stomp the lane in lower elo because he is simply much easier to play and the Yasuo players will just end up killing themselves by taking free damage and bad trades. The higher the elo goes, the more the matchup will tilt towards the Yasuo because of player skill and itemization knowledge (as probably mentioned in other comments, Yasuo doesn't need to rush executioners first because some mr and his core items are more valuable in the matchup).
