Energy on Yasuo?

Didn't think too much into it, just something that popped in my mind. Wouldn't energy make him less cancerous? Take away the shield passive and replace it with energy. It would stop his spamming of q and e and he would have to actually manage his skill usage. Could be wrong but it just seems like that would be a better balance for him. Maybe make his flow passive provide some sort of increased crit chance or damage reduction instead? Let me know your thoughts on either side of the coin.

it makes him super slow and RIOT wouldn't actually do something that massive to a one of a kind resource bar.

besides, trading that for flow passive critical chance/damage reduction is even more cancerous and instead of AS runes, its gonna be critical damage runes and now late game he's gonna be even more fucked up

it would've been a good idea to remove the resource bar by itself, since he already GOT NERFED right? He isn't as hyper anymore.

But on your side?

It'd make poking him less difficult but you'd have to get more damage and penetration on the other end to hurt him as much before the change, and his critical chance would give him too much power early game so you'd have to be zoned out even farther.

And the REAL reason why Riot wouldn't do this without bias? Lore.

Ninja's have energy, everyone else doesn't. Yasuo is a samurai? ( i believe riot confirmed him a samurai) and Samurai is not a Ninja

If you want to make his useless and actually be the worst champ in league of legends ever, then sure. He's not cancerous, it's all about how you play the matchup. There's a reason people in higher elo can actually beat him in and out of lane.
