Can you explain why you believe those champions need nerfs?

Lee Sin has a super oppressive early game, and can build both tank and assassin. Riot should pick one and nerf the other into the ground, by either destroying his bases, or his absurd scalings (no other champion has a 200% AD scaling on what is essentially a point and click ability).

Yasuo should just lose the EQ interaction that he has, because it makes his combo not conditional on dodging a tornado, rather, it is conditional on "Is Yasuo in melee range?". Maybe also give him the Kalista treatment, reducing the damage of his AA's by 10%.

Vayne is the only ADC who dodged the nerfs of season 5, came back better than ever, and despite being a hypercarry, has a great laning phase. Vayne's goal shouldn't be to win lane (which it is now), rather it should be to go even in lane, similar to Karthus.

Tryndamere doesn't really need any nerfs, although he's super annoying to play. Voli and Graves are fine, and Eve actually needs buffs because she's really weak atm.

i dont think nerfing yas's aa dmg is a good way to go, seeing as he already only does 90% dmg on crits.

Renekton has a 225% AD ratio on his empowered W (150% normal W), Udyr has a 160% AD ratio on his Q first hit (counting the AA to proc it and the Tiger bonus stance damage it goes up to a whopping 275% AD), Talon has a 100% AD (+130% bonus AD) on Q. Lee Sin's R is actually weaker than all those as it is 200% BONUS AD, meaning unless he builds AD he doesn't get any of that ratio. If Lee Sin had to be nerfed I'd prefer it to be by not making him such an extreme generalist and instead focusing on one aspect of him (mobility? displacement? damage?).

Yasuo should just lose the EQ interaction that he has, because it makes his combo not conditional on dodging a tornado, rather, it is conditional on "Is Yasuo in melee range?". Maybe also give him the Kalista treatment, reducing the damage of his AA's by 10%.

His crits (which I might add due to the nature of his steroid are basically guaranteed) do 10% less damage (25% less on Q). Which means his autoattacks mid and lategame already have "do 10% less damage". His EQ combo is rather fine I think, as it adds some measure of reliability to him as otherwise he does not have an ult while every other champion does.

Vayne is the only ADC who dodged the nerfs of season 5, came back better than ever, and despite being a hypercarry, has a great laning phase. Vayne's goal shouldn't be to win lane (which it is now), rather it should be to go even in lane, similar to Karthus.

...What? Lane bullies just came back in style, hard, Vayne had her early game nerfed pretty heavily, and her main items got heavily nerfed (all her zeal items cost more, her BotRK lost damage and gained cost. She got direct nerfs, nerfs due to her counters being buffed, AND itemization nerfs all in one.

Tryndamere doesn't really need any nerfs, although he's super annoying to play. Voli and Graves are fine, and Eve actually needs buffs because she's really weak atm.

Eve needs a complete overhaul. She's still an incredibly painful champion to face due to her extreme early game pressure and the inability to adequately ward against her enough to actually prevent being ganked.
