Anyone else triggered that Yasuo/Ahri are allowed in the Assassin game at All Stars?

Despite Riot themselves not considering Yasuo or Ahri an assassin? http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/developer-corner/3A5uuBw7-champion-subclass-list Prior to making this post, I thought Ahri's secondary role was assassin, so I wasn't going to complain about her being in it. Turns out she's just a burst mage, so she belongs in the "Assassins only" game just as much as Brand does.

It almost feels like there's no point of creating such detailed class/subclass systems if Riot doesn't even support them.

I mean, Teemo is considered a marksman. That's way weirder, imo.

Pretty sure most Teemos get the bulk of their damage with ranged auto attacks and itemize attack speed. I suppose he can build AP items like Dcap Ludens and Lichbane, but that's definitely not his most common playstyle.

What would you say he is?

EDIT: Weird, Riot says he's a Disruptor/Marksman. Guess they want him to build mage items more than they want him to build nashors/guinsoos

Ahri is fine, she has an assassin like kit(and was considered an assassin before they removed DFG).

But yea Yasuo shouldn't be.

Yeah, Rito doesn't actually "care" about the classes that characters are in so long as it gives for entertainment value. It's why there's no support-only mode at all-stars, and why they're hyping up all the "carry-oriented" crap through both that and the patch changes that continuously make little sense.
