Yasuo's Q

SwiftKitten88·Jul 4, 2016·1 votes·291 views

i don't remember what patch it was, but along time ago, (before her rework) my main had her pounce changed from "the direction she was facing" to "cursor location". it didn't change the distance at all it just went to your cursor location instead of the direction you were facing (this was before her rework so there is no empowered pounce)

i have tried .. and while i find him pretty fun, it annoys me that when i use my Q it throw it in the location I'm facing and not where my cursor is.

would it be possible for yasuo to get the same treatment for his q that nidalee did for her pounce?

i have been looking for a new mid laner. and i dont use ANY and ad or manaless champs in mid lane, and i like how he takes skill but doesn't have a half-screen 1 button escape like or does.. and yauso seems to fit that role.

The reason this is is because Yasuo would be too strong if he simply Q'd in any direction. You could be chasing him and he'd suddenly turn and stab and keep running. They want you to slightly commit, meaning to actually issue a command to turn before completing 33% of your deadly combo. Nidalee's doesn't make sense to keep on facing because her leap isn't part of a complex combo and also if she's pouncing, she's planning on committing in that direction.
