This Yasuo Circle Jerk Is Getting Insane

So first lets address the common complains:


>Yasuo is in every game.

Well lets look, Yasuo currently sits at at positon 20, on the pick list. want to know who is actually picked more than him?

http://champion.gg/statistics/#?sortBy=general.playPercent&order=descend&roleSort=

LeeSin Vayne Caitlyn Thresh Ezreal Jhin Janna Jinx Lucian Orianna Lux Vi Twitch Khazix Riven Hecarim Ahri Morgana Blitzcrank

Then and only then do you get Yasuo Yasuo


>Yasuo is broken and offers no counters.

okay so all the champions that statistically beat him? don't matter?.

http://champion.gg/champion/Yasuo/Top

Top Lane

Shaco Rumble Mordekaiser Nautilus Kayle Renekton Irelia Poppy Rammus MonkeyKing Volibear Quinn Darius DrMundo Malphite Pantheon Kennen Riven

http://champion.gg/champion/Yasuo/Middle

Mid Lane

Kayle Kennen Vladimir Malzahar Viktor Lissandra Anivia Chogath Annie Swain Morgana Leblanc Gangplank Brand Velkoz Jayce Cassiopeia Syndra Orianna Lux Ahri Ziggs Varus Corki

All of those champions have a positive win ratio vs Yasuo, in a direct lane match-up.


>When mastered he is impossible to beat

Yasuo max win ratio at 125+ ranked games is 54.88% Top and 56.15% Mid

lets compare to other popular champions shall we?

Yasuo 56.15% Darius 59.42% Riven 55.03% Poppy 60.06% Orianna 57.07% Lux 56.45% Ahri 55.05% Viktor 56.63% Twitch 57.97% Vayne 56.3% LeeSin 53.47% Janna 56.14% Vi 57.99%

So lets order these in win ratio order

Poppy 60.06% Darius 59.42% Vi 57.99% Twitch 57.97% Orianna 57.07% Viktor 56.63% Lux 56.45% Vayne 56.3% Yasuo 56.15% Janna 56.14% Ahri 55.05% Riven 55.03% LeeSin 53.47%

oh look Yasuo isn't even that high compared to other champions when played at there best.


So please tell me why we should ignore all the facts clearly listed above, and just listen to the circle jerk that he is actually "Broken"

No pro players says he's broken at all, think we rarely see him played in a proper professional game at all, i wonder why that is, if he is so stupidly broken you would think teams would first pick or ban him every time, right?

Yasuo as a champion is the definition of circle jerk hate, there are far worse champions out there but no lets hate on the champion that never gets touched in pro play and takes the some of the most skill in the game to play.

Oh Look im dumb enough to use all my projectiles knowing that he has WW up and then keep spamming them after he has cast it.

WW at most should block 1 skill shot unless your bad and waste all your skill shots at once.

Also, wow i now have 24 seconds with which he has no windwall and can cast anything i want. best not to take advantage of this at all.

you know why Yasuo has a lower pick rate then those champs? Ban phase. I can guarantee you, nobody bans Orianna.

Well the point of that was to prove that: A he isn't in every game and if as you say he is banned all the time then B still not in every game....

So yeah thanks for proving my point?

Not all of us have Normal Draft, and there's always a time where majority of the matches is just plain Yasuo vs Yasuo.

It's thanks to him that too many players didn't dared to explore more champion diversity since they just want to EEEEEEEQ the fuck out of Yasuo at top & mid lane. Similar reasons apply to Lee Sin in the jungle. Like when was the last time you see someone going Sejuani, Nautilus, Jax & Sion in the jungle?

now, have you bothered to check this http://champion.gg/statistics/#?sortBy=general.banRate&order=descend&roleSort=

it's his ban rate, he is on the third place right after rengar and khazix

and that's btw plat+, yasuo is more oppressive in lower elo
