Yasuo Wind Wall Is Busted.

Yasuo's wind wall has had it's problems in the past and there are still some questionable mechanics that remain. For example: If Yasuo Wind Walls Braum ultimate, Braum's ult gets destroyed/ stopped. How the hell does that make sense? Braum ult literally breaks the ground underneath of everyone knocking things up when it hits them. How does that ult count as a projectile if it's just the ground (underneath the wind wall) that's being effected. The other problem with Wind Wall is how it reacts with Azir's ult as well. Why does Azir's ult get destroyed by Wind Wall if it's just soldiers charging forward? If that's the case then anyone who has a charge (Hecarim Sejuani Vi XinZhao MonkeyKing Leblanc LeeSin Irelia Ekko JarvanIV) or dash should also be interrupted by the wind wall as well. Wind wall makes no sense most of the time anyways. Let me know what you guys think and I hope Riot recognizes how dumb some of the Wind Wall mechanics are right now.

Functionally, Braum's ult is a projectile. It travels forward, dealing damage and applying a knockup along the way, and leaving behind a slowing field. There's no inconsistency between that and any standard projectile in how it's affected by Wind Wall.

The only exceptions to Wind Wall and Unbreakable are those few projectiles that travel very high off the ground, like Ziggs' ult or Soraka's Q.

, Braum's ult gets destroyed/ stopped. How the hell does that make sense?

Any ability with a travel time like that is a projectile. It doesn't matter that it visually goes underground. In gameplay terms, it is doing nothing that other projectiles don't do. The only projectiles that get a thematic pass are the ones that completely leave the screen.

Why does Azir's ult get destroyed by Wind Wall if it's just soldiers charging forward?

Because the wall is a projectile. Champions are not projectiles. It makes perfect sense that a projectile gets destroyed while champions do not.

you are thinking to realistically about this. Bruams ult is a projectile :p just as orianna's ball is and Taliyahs rocks are

People should not be interrupted by the wall when they charge. After all it is a WIND wall. I think it works perfectly as riot intended it too and I find it is very balanced (and I main Brand and I hate the wall because it stops my ult.

Lets focus on the REAL subject matter here which is of course Braum who has the SAME ability, but its BETTER and has a lower cooldown and ITS NOT EVEN HIS ULTIMATE ABILITY.

ITS NOT EVEN HIS ULTIMATE ABILITY!

Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum Braum

why...

Eh yasuo is just an annoying champion. He has that dash on a .1 second cooldown and its super annoying in lane lol.
