Can we please tweak Yasuo

Yasuo was released in Season 4, where Crit items were Significantly weaker. His passive was designed to either need three crit items, forcing his third item to be Ghost Blade or Tri force (Yes, these used to give crit for you newer players.) or to run crit runes to reach it, giving up your early game dueling for the late game consistency. This was back when Yasuo, in terms of his passive, was balanced. He needed longer to hit his final power spike, and it wasn't as potent. And before somebody says "But PD still gives enough crit!" Back then, PD was considered bad on Yasuo, because it didn't give him the dueling stats he wanted, which wasnt worth the extra crit for him. Now, PD not only gives him the crit he needs, but it gives arguably one of the most potent dueling stats in the game. (And if you go shiv, you still have 100% which is also just obnoxious). I don't want the passive reworked or removed, I just want it tweaked we have so many more items for Crit, and Yasuo still only needs two. It just feels insanely unfair that his power spikes come so early into the game compared to any other champion.

I miss when triforce gave crit.

Game length reduced by a lot.

He is mid-game, hits power spike earlier than 3 crit items which usually by that time the game is transitioning to late game.

There is nothing wrong with this.

Due to the dueling stat, PD is almost mandatory on Yasuo and Shiv is horrible.

Not only is Yasuo perfectly balanced right now (49% winrate with a fitting playrate to justify the winrate) but if anything he should be getting more reward for skill and more punishment for bad plays. I see too often a Yasuo just hitting 100% crit and slapping me down even if I 1v1'd him. However, this is virtually impossible to fix because its a stat check and it's the only thing keeping him viable.

Unless you make him have better base stats, more AD and MR then you are not gonna see a Yasuo tweak due to his crit.

Not only that but he's just easier to itemize against than most, if not all AD champions.

That sounds like something a Yasuo Main would say...

Wait.

When Yasuo was released, using runes he could start the game with like what 30% crit chance or something ridiculous like that?

I'll take the Yasuo we have now, thanks.

No one ever ran 3 crit items

We all just took 5% crit chance in our runes to fill out the last 10%

Actually, most of the Pro players at that time ran Trinity force and skipped on the runes. They actually took Flat AD, Flat armor, and AP blues because his E stacking was so potent when he was released.

Conqueror rune was a mistake.
