Yasuo is definitely too strong. However, he also has a terrible allergy to Exhaust. Side effects include but are not limited to:

Loss of damage, loss of attack speed which also equals loss of damage, loss of ability to escape with or without flash, getting focused and dying super quickly because of the giant particle that exhaust paints a target on that back of your head with not to mention the extra damage you take due to reduced resistances.

Let me be clear. I have no beef with glass cannon Yasuo. Those Yasuos earn their kills and earn their death defying escapes when they happen. The current meta build that takes advantage of Frozen mallet and PD's damage reduction synergy with it annoy me to no end, as I feel like this defeats the purpose of what Yasuo was supposed to be

Everyone and their mother has terrible allergy to exhaust. Listing this as major weakness only shows how BS Yasuo is.

You would have a point if it were an item you have to buy, but if you see Yasuo locked in on the other team, and one of you DOESN'T take exhaust, you deserve to lose

This applies to any damage dealer champion. Again, listing this as Yasuo's major weakness is silly.

I gave you a solution to your problem with Yasuo. You can either continue to sit here bitching about how you can't deal with him, or you can use it. gl

I never said I have problem with Yasuo. I merely commented on terrible design issue. Vulnerability to exhaust doesn't change how much agency and how little counterplay his shield has in melee matchups.

See, that attitude is the literal problem with yasuo, he is fine, the problem is people seeing his 1 or 2 strengths and ignoring the mass amounts of weaknesses he has, which are really easy to exploit too.

no offense, but his weaknesses have been slowly fading with every new meta build he has. It used to be that burst was a weakness to Yasuo, now he can tank it and life steal it all back with warlords and BT. Yasuo has 2 true weaknesses. Lockdown and Exhaust
