but he now loses 50 damage but gets a .2 bonus AD ratio. To get that damage back he needs 250 AD lategame. On average according to champion.gg he's been building about 175 AD

That's a very small damage drop in an ability he's only using once every so many seconds for damage against any particular target. At best this will harm his CS if he rushes AS and max's E first lol. If he doesn't max E first then he loses 10-20 damage for a while which can be made up for with 50-100 AD or basically completing a single AD item.

Almost like he now has to build damage to get damage and has potentially killed his "tank" builds forever.

not really. He loses 50 damage lategame in a game where even the squishiest has like 1600 hp without items and i'm talking about... just 50 damage. Not per hit. Just one time he loses 50 damage lol. And that's assuming he has no Bonus AD at level 18

the whole idea was to force him into maxing Q again.

trust me, 50 damage are much.

ScissorsNstuffJan 25, 20171 votes

its 10 damage earlygame

and when he maxes it 50

ScissorsNstuffJan 25, 20171 votes

He's got items by then. And he loses 50 damage.. He probably wasn't maxing E for the damage regardless

ShadòwJan 25, 20171 votes

you want to max Q now.

if he maxes E, he will lose a big part of damage in trades. a nerf to the early game will affect the whole game.

belive me, the nerfs will hit him hard and that's good.

He was definitely maxing E for the damage.

the ratio doesnt stack only the base does

the point was to nerf his early and not his late. good changes imo

ScissorsNstuffJan 25, 20171 votes

its only 10 damage early, assuming he has no bonus AD.

It forces him to max Q again which means his laning phase will be weaker which it what it should be. Now they just need to make it physical damage instead of magic. He has no business dealing mix damage.

its really not "forcing" anything lol. Unless you were maxing E for the massive damage...

It's 50 +50% or 75 damage nearly every Yasuo was maxing E first which allowed them to deal magic damage, last hit better and dash every 0.1 second instead of 0.5 which is a HUGE difference.

You can still max E first now but you'll need 375 bonus AD to make up the 75 damage loss - not to mention that since Yasuo starts off with building static shyv, you're not going to be getting that needed AD for quite a while.
