Jayce thoughts: why does everyone hate irelia, camille, Darius, and yasuo?

Hammermancer··2 votes·1,335 views

I've been 1tricking jayce for like 6 years, and I hate stuff none of y'all care about... like maokai or renekton, but I really don't get the yasuo and irelia hate, I think they're really fun to fight against

can someone elaborate on what's so bad about them?

Yasuo is very unfun to play when against Darius and Yasuo is very unfun to play against as Draven. He's either way too strong in some match ups or way too weak in others.

can't you just like do the minion dash thing as yasuo to evade the darius?

can't draven just hold his knockback to hold off yasuo and then burst him down?

No, darius has a grab, a slow, and fairly large range for his q. If you dash through the minions, you'll take a lot of damage even if darius somehow misses all his stuff.

Yasuo has a large enough range to attack while behind windwall, and his shield makes him sustain lanes way better than most melees do against a ranaged opponent. He can w Dravens q every 26 seconds and force Draven oom very quickly since it just eats the axe.

Because Yasuo looks flashy but there's not much else there because you have no cooldowns or costs. And windwall is still one of the shittiest designed spells in the game.

Playing Jayce you have a similar feeling of agency as the player of those champions, because you both are playing complex champions with a lot of options.

For players of other champions though, we don't have that option. Playing against champions with a lot going on mechanically makes a player feel helpless because it feels like their opponent can just do so much more than they can.

Darius is one of my most hated champions in the game. I do not like his "invalidate most immobile melees early game" thing, as well as how much damage his bleed effect does.
