Yasuo Nerf

Okay so, we all know how Yasuo got a hard nerf. But honestly, does he need it? No. First he got the E nerf, now he gets a Q nerf, and now there's a 10 ban system so he's gonna be perma banned. He's never gonna be able to get played and on top if that if he does get to, it'll suck with all these nerfs. You can easily play someone like Annie, Mordekaiser, Riven, and many more champs that can easily fuck him up. Why not nerf someone who is actually op like say Warwick, Twitch, Xayah anyone who really does need some nerfs. Yasuo doesn't need all this. 4 seconds is HUGE.

We may not always agree with the nerfs that Riot implements, but in this case, they were well-deserved. The reason why Yasuo has received so many nerfs ever since his release is because he was released with an overloaded kit. The reason why his third Q was nerfed so heavily is because of how long he could use it to zone people off the minion wave. He wouldn't even need to fight his lane opponent in order to beat them because he could just deny them cs and beat them with his gold advantage. Plus, even if you did walk up to the minion wave to farm it, he would just slide through it and outduel most champions (due to the fact that Fervor is broken atm).

On the plus side, at least you get to learn some new champions now that he's perma-banned.

yes perma banned Yasuo sounds great then nerf him more so he wouldn't be perma banned

Lol M8 these boards are butthurt Yasuo Haters. They are all bronze tier players who have no idea how to counter Yasuo so all they do is complain about Yasuo on here.

Yasuo could stand to use some minor nerfs to his early game... This recent nerf does hurt, but I don't think it was the right way to nerf him.

Something like: Crit damage -20/15/10% at levels 1/6/11 would affect his damage till mid game.

If you need to hit something general, you could hit his windwall with a static size and duration nerf, (size rank 2 or 3, static duration of 3 seconds). Windwall can be worked around for sure, but it lasts like, 4 seconds, and that is longer than a morgana binding. :P 3 seconds would be enough.

EDIT: Oh and the biggest problem with the 6 second thing, is it basically forces you to push the wave if you want to have tornado up to harass/zone. That is why I think that 4 seconds was too much. If you are just last hitting, trying to freeze and zone off your opponent, you only get to do that when you are trimming the next wave, which is not when you need to zone them. That has been my experience so far. But hey, its only been 1 day, maybe I will figure it out.

Thank you to the people who actually replied and didn't argue, hoping a rioter can see this post

His nerfs aren't sufficient. He needs a rework. He has too much damage and too many defenses and those combined make him perma ban worthy by all but very high elo. I think the main problems are his defenses. Passive shield, no mana (yes that is a defense), shield wall, unstoppable during his ult, highly mobile in a minion wave, and a knock-up. Too much cc for an assassin.

Kat has no cc. Talon has very little, Zed has none, Diana has some cc, etc etc. Name 1 assassin that reks yasuo 1v1. (Riven is the best I know, but she's not an assassin).
