Yasuo's playrate

doiminat0r3600·Nov 22, 2015·2 votes·517 views

Yasuo's playrate was steady at about 30% (still rather high for a game with over 200 champions) and then the preseson patch dropped. His winrate skyrocketed to a near 40%. The winrate went up about 3% (from 51% to 54%) because so many people were playing him and doing well (Shocking /s). His playrate at its peak was 41.7%. That is almost half of all normal SR games played.

Edit: Yasuo is currently the most popular champ in LOL by 3000 games (lee sin being second).

What? Your point of

doesn't make any sense. There are over 100 champions (I forgot where I read 200 but it was misinformation, my bad!) which means there are plenty of other choices.

Your other point of

the only people playing him is in blind normal's or team builder hes always banned in rank so ya. This doesn't matter.

does matter. If someone is banned that much then there has to be a problem. Considering most of what people who play normals is blind pick, it matters.

Vayne had ~40% at the time too. And I wouldn't say 41.7% was nearly half, but it is damn high.

Anything within 10% of a 50% playrate is ~50%. Considering that he is the most popular champion in the game atm (followed by lee sin), something needs to happen.

Well, there isn't a definition of ~50% so, we can disagree and both be right. I believe ~50% is around 45%-55% but it doesn't metter in the end. I agree something needs to be done (not a big nerf though)

They need to do something with his flow. It acts as an OP shield that acts like no other shield. It blocks the next incoming ability. Most of the damage that is. If not all of it, it blocks ~90% of it. Not to mention that it is commonly referenced to as a "This bar is how long it takes before you can make your next mistake."
