RIP non - Yasuo mids...

Warlord's Bloodlust: Critical strikes heal for 15% of the damage dealt and grant you 20% attack speed for 4 seconds (2 second cooldown).

... Was Yasuo considered AT ALL when they added this to the masteries?!

Karthus's AA isn't too bad.

It's AoE and does double damage if it hits a single target.

Sucks that it costs mana though.

Yeah, I guess you're right. Lol. Don't know why she has that, along with the lowest hp in the game and tied with Kog'Maw, Rammus, and Alistar for the lowest movement speed in the game.

Unlike Vel'Koz, her auto attack is a projectile. Vel can shoot his through wind wall.

That 110% Crit Chance.

I m guess you talk abuot the new item

item 3087 35% = 70% item 3031 20% = 40

110% over all is that what you mean? Yasuo

rampaging poet2 votes

I meant that Vel'Koz build with the new items. 2x PD for 60%, Shiv for 30%, IE for 20% = 110% Crit Chance. It's just 100% with the current items. No armour pen though so better hope you're fighting squishies.

Nah there'll be other mids. You can have Graves and Ezreal, or if you want some magic damage ad Corki and ad Varus can deal respectable magic damage

Yep, might as well not even take the traditional mages mid anymore when the new marksmen will have a better early mid and late.

They have been phasing out mana based mages for seasons now.

Great... Now yasuo gets free 15% lifesteal... Add BT, and we'll have to build Grevious wounds items vs him

xFrostKnightx5 votes

Not that 40% reduced healing is going to do jack when almost every AD item now has lifesteal.

Lao Fu the Tiger2 votes

Surely it isn't as if we have a grievous wounds AD item now.

Riot isnt going to nerf Yasuo, their balance team is completely inept. This will be their version of a "nerf" for Yasuo:

-10 Base AD -1 AD/Lvl -Because the previous nerfs are so incredibly harsh, Yasuo's sheild is permanent. Windwall has a 1 second cool down. And he can now dash infinitely without minions.

Naw man... THIS is for them...

Deathfire Touch: Your damaging abilities cause enemy champions to take 6 + 50% of your Bonus Attack Damage and 20% of your Ability Power in Magic damage over 3 seconds (Area of effect and damage over time abilities apply half of this damage over 1.5 seconds instead).

:/

I meant like how riven counters yasuo so they can pretty much just spam riven if yasuo gets op. lol Wait is that an actual mastery? Holy shit riven's gonna be good on that.

Darn Right. but there way too much counter to him I think he good just it is.

Verxint5 votes

Is this entire thread missing the 2 second CD?

This means he'll proc it on every ~4-5 attacks midgame at best.

xFrostKnightx16 votes

Who says he's hitting champions? He will never ever have to back and won't be poked out of lane because he has sustain now.

KingKong23502 votes

Well, at least due to the Shiv and IE giving him 100% crit chance now, he wont have crit runes anymore. Which means he wont have this sustain until his first crit item? I am in no way defending this

Drakylon2 votes

Even worse: Yasuo now gets 100% crit at 3300 gold: Shiv + Cloak of Agility. Not only that, he takes 20% less burst damage thanks to Death's Dance and can lifesteal off of more than just the first unit hit by his Q.

summoner 3 is basically taking Yasuo's sword, replacing it with a baguette, and then tying the sword to his boots so he has to waddle away while you blast him with CC.

Transgressor1 votes

And all of a sudden you forced one of your summoners to change according to a single fucking pick.

No, you didn't take cleanse because their team is packed with CC, or they've maded an engage comp, or whatever. NO you picked Exhaust because a fucking yasuo is in the game.

If that is not the best indicator of unbalance, I don't know what is. Same goes for this shitheadZed .

Yasuo doesn't benefit at all from CDR.

Yasuo doesn't benefit at all from CDR.

Actually he benefits in reducing the cooldown from his W and his ult.

What happens is that it is such a small benefit that it is not worth purchasing CDR because most of his important abilities aren't reduced by CDR. Also, he is auto-attack reliant; his W has a long cooldown anyway, and his ult already has a very small cooldown (when compared to other ultimates)

I am just saying that Yasuo in fact benefits from CDR. Not that this benefit is relevant enough for him to make investing in CDR worth. Just like Kha'Zix benefits from building AP due to its passive and the healing on his W. But it is such a small benefit, and he benefits much more from AD due to his other abilities, so it is not worth to build AP on Kha'Zix.
