Was I the only one expecting a Yasuo Nerf?

I am kinda shocked he was untouched in this patch while so many people have been complaining about him. He is nearly 80%+ of the time banned so he doesn't bother me much and most of the yasuo's just suck so bad. However the good ones don't need their team as they can just solo. I recently had a match with a yasuo that stalled the game for 52minutes. I was supp with 2/6/40 kda and my adc had 37/5/11. Vayne had 18 kills when yasuo had 7 kills and he was still able to kill her 1v1 easily (the adc was obviously good if he had that kda at the end) but so was yasuo. I just think after he gets his 2 core items, that's all he needs to carry. Not to mention every single member of his team sucked so bad. I felt like it was 5 of us vs yasuo as vayne took 10 secs to eliminate the rest.

I was expecting Heca and Vi to get maybe some early game nerfs and not so much lee sin. Just think Vi and Heca gank better but i may be wrong.

KDA doesn't matter at all when games get stalled so long that both teams are full build.

Yasuo has nerfs planned for next patch. http://www.surrenderat20.net/2017/01/110-pbe-update.html

I am talking about early game when Vayne was so far ahead that she only needed 10secs to kill the entire team (obviously i was supporting at the same time). Yasuo was not even half as fed as vayne and would kill of my allies while vayne kills 4 enemies. Then yasuo windwalls, Q's her and 1-2 AA and GGWP. I was soraka i am useless damage wise. Also i am talking about a good vayne which is also my premade (friend) and mains yasuo as well. So i don't think he didn't know yasuo's counter while vayne herself is pretty mobile for an adc. I know Yasuo is not so good at higher elos but he pretty much dominates lower elo's hence why he is banned alot.

Thanks for the link :D

give him -50 damage at level 5 dash but give him an AD ratio on it.

k.

His dash is usually the 2nd thing maxed out. So chances are, to even get that -50 damage, the laning phase would be over. It would be mid game by then, POSSIBLY EVEN LATE, where most of the time, anything less than 100 damage means nothing anyways. That's why you very rarely ever see Poppy last hitting someone with an ult. So there's almost no point in calling it a nerf. Not to mention the AD ratio practically gives back the damage anyways, and more.

The reason is that he isnt that great in high elo where people know how to counter him.

Kda means jack shit, and if the game went for 52 mins, chances were, yasuo was at full build, meaning the kill difference doesn't matter.

This is why people say farm is more important than kills.

One last thing, the fact your fed vayne couldn't close out the game with that many kills implies either they were bad, or that your team didn't work together at all

Oh so you're trying to say that the fact you get S or A or B depending on your KDA is just outright nonsense? It does matter but it's not the sole factor in determining a champ's strength. Do you want me to write an essay on how yasuo gets 100% crit with 2 items and his insane dashes and etc? The facts are there in front of you. I was merely stating my opinion in one of my matches against yasuo which however is solidified from my previous encounters as well and hence i mentioned the KDA. Even riot agreed that yasuo is currently really strong in their update a while back.

Yes actually, please write me an essay about why yasuo is too strong, and please do compare his damage per sec to current adcs, while avoiding using any of the frankly idiotic arguements that are so common on the boards

(an example being complaining that an auto attack based champ has a steroid that makes them do more damage, something literally every adc has

The only facts that are there about yasuo is that he has a 50.5% winrate, a 10.1% play rate, a 49.1% ban rate, and that the average yasuo player has 84-85 games played with him

You do know that you're contradicting yourself? First of all a vayne twice as fed as him (when yasuo hadn't completed his build) couldn't 1v1 him. Both are AA reliant champs so what's your point? Now compare a vayne against a twice as fed yasuo, how will it end for her?

You also do realize that winrate together with that play rate is quite decent and his banrate is absurdly high.

If you want to know the damage per second sht while you want to ignore the KDA then go do some research. Trillions already have wrote essays on him complaining about him and his damage. I am sure you will get a better insight from them than from my opinion because if you look carefully i clearly was opining. The fact he is considered by rito to get a nerf also makes you contradict yourself.
