Wind Wall should work like Yorick's Dark Procession

Yasuo's Wind Wall last 3.75 seconds and blocks all projectiles (and a few other questionable things labelled as "projectiles" - but that discussion is for another day).

Yorick's Dark Procession last 4 seconds, but a player has the ability to attack their way out of it.

Yasuo's ability to throw up a wall that blocks all projectiles, and dash his way to either side of that wall gives him the capability to nullify all ranged attacks for 3.75 seconds, a significant amount of time. I think after the windwall absorbs a certain number of attacks, it should disappear, much like Yorick's Dark Procession.

This way, Yasuo can still stop projectiles and use it as counterplay to 2 or 3 major projectiles (Syndra ult, cait ult etc as some examples), but it also requires him to actually think about when to use it. If he uses it too early, an enemy could take it down with autos and get those key projectiles off.

no lol

wind wall is a defensive spell for a squishy carry

procession is a wall-in spell for locking people down on a tanky carry

Windwall blocks projectiles, Yorick's W is a ranged j4 ulti.

both are different spells and because one should be destroyable doesn't mean the other should also be destroyable

Windwall limits yasuo's movement and doesn't snare you, windwall is just a tool in teamfight that is powerful in the jungle. it's niche is limited unless yasuo blows it to block one spell.

How do you attack wind? You're gonna shoot some bullets into it and hope it breaks?

i agree, people that main yas will say windwall isnt op or something of the sort. But it is a busted assss ability thats needs a change like this or like how braums unbreakablle works

I like the idea, but I would also like if it blocked both teams projectiles.

How're you going to attack wind? Like, do you blow into it, to have your air pushed back? It's not an object, it's a safe haven for the otherwise near-zero-protection samurai. His Flow and Windwall are essential parts of his kit; Windwall has had a few changes here and there, but staying the entire duration is part of what makes the ability viable. Flow was given nerfs left and right then buffed back to viability.

Yasuo is fine, friend.

edit: I do like the idea, but logically, it just doesn't work. :/
