do only i think that riot kinda fails ballancing yasuo

atm it look like riot will just toss his numbers around and cut his kit

well after the latest nerf i just noticed that his shield does not exist anymore as the result of this cutting, someone might try to burst him down and the shield will expire before he does it without even being fully destroyed

next thing is his damage, he outdamaged everything by far when released and he still does it, if you want a meele carry then give him the damage of a carry cause he can dish twice as much atm

his dash which had to give him some laning i suppose got nerfed cause as a (hypercarry of some sort) he cant have a decent laning and this is actualy fine, it makes sence for a guy like him to be weak early and it allows counterplay to exist , bully him and deny him gold

the thing that hurts him the most atm was the nerf to q cdr, before yasuo took static and his cd spiked rather hard, now the diference is easy to feel

those changes or rather the direction it goes indicates that yasuo requires tweaks to his kit instead of simple number cutting, you will remake him into a kassadin
if you dont know what is wrong with kassa ill explain, riot noticed that nerfing kassa's number even a little cause him to become trash while giving him at least decent numbers causes him to be op like he was, the answer to such a state is tweaking the kit, riot tweaked kassadins mobility by making it costfull, i suppose that it will do the trick, but yasuo requires a kit tweak too, right now he will be probably bouncing beetwen being op or up dependiong on the damage he can output and damage he can take

Hmm... you have a good point. As much fun Yas is, hes pretty overpowered. They usually give champs a huge nerf like, a few weeks after they are released, but that didnt really do much did it...

just checked his winrates nerfs didnt hit him in bronze and silver but in gold,plat and diamond his winrate bounces beetwen like 43% to 48%, this does not indicat his actual power but it means that he does not compete as much as others lor instance lb has single target burst, while ori has multi target burst that deals the same single rarget damage as lb, thats why lb has lower winrate (also riot gutted her but its irrevelant here)

his nerfs were quite slight but it caused him to bounce from op to up, slight buff and he is op again i think that its rational and logical proof of my statement

You really think Orianna and Leblanc have the same damage? Orianna had long has some of the lowest burst values, making it up in utility and low cool downs.

Check out this document for some numbers

honestly i cant back it up with numbers cause i didnt see lb in a long time so lets say its annie both should get a guy 100 to 0 with a combo, but annie can hit 3 ppl while lb hits 1 that is all its to state what we can decudt from winrate, you caught the least important part of my post

I'm on mobile so maybe it didn't work right but I gave you all the numbers. Leblanc's nerfs did not touch her damage in the slightest, she literally only lost her silence.

That doesn't matter when you're making things up, not doing research and drawing causality out of information even you admit is meaningless.

If you can't even correctly state known facts about champions why are you commenting on balance at all?
