Yasuo is Overplayed

I'm pretty sure everybody is used to seeing Yasuo played in the mid lane and top lane . He has 10% play rate out of 131 champions in the game. I think Riot should do something about him when I even see him being played as a support. Luckily he was on the enemy team but in the past 3 days I've seen 2 Yasuo supports. I understand that some people only play 1 champ but Yasuo support? He's teed to be in my game no matter what role. I know I can just play draft but when a champion has that high of a play rate I think Riot should finally do something to make people try other champs or pick Yasuo less. Idk maybe it's just me who wants to see more variety in the champs they play against. EDIT: I'm not complaining about how he's broken it's just League gets very stale if you face the same exact champion every game.

Why is high play rate a problem? Yasuo isn't broken instaGG champion so maybe a lot of players actually enjoying playing as his cause he is fun to play, a lot of outplay potential and stuff.
What a pointless thread lmfao. You're now crying about a large number of players just simply playing a fun champion? What should riot do about it, disable Yasuo?

He is instaGG. He can feed his lane for the first 20 minutes and go 0/5 then proceed to pentakill with 2 items. He is picked because he has no real counters and extremely annoying to face.

Platinum player here, I commonly get matched with diamonds and I see Yasuo commonly among those players too. According to champion.gg Yasuo has a 20% pick rate on mid and top combined, and champion.gg takes all its ratings from platinum+

Yep. If you combine mid and top he has a really high pick rate. Too high. I see him in 1/2 - 1/3 of my games. For the rest he's usually banned.

Silver player here, no one gives a shit about your rank. Get diamond, then we can talk.

I feel like the fact that hes being plaayed alot means that riot has done a good job. I would say yas is in a pretty decent spot right now. you could argue that hes op because of the new tank build but you can really do that with any champ these days. Yasuo is just one of the more unique and fun to lay champs, so there will be alot more people playing him. if everybody started playing yorick all of a sudden to try and get some mastery points in before his update for some quirky reason, you wouldnt ask riot to nerf yorick becaus ehis in all of your games.

Because he's so anime. I know it looks sarcastic whenever I type that, but I'm sure it's one of the three factors people spam him. That alongside his mechanics and him having high AD damage.

Every single one of my last 5 ranked games or so I've seen Ekko. I'd kill to see a Yasuo. Ekko is just to painful to deal with every single fuckin game.
