give yasuo a small movement speed buff

The ADC Wizard·Oct 3, 2015·1 votes·1,185 views

Do you think adding + 5 movement speed on Yasuo would be a good buff? I think that it wouldn't really break the champion, but would help seperate him from the other melee champions that use 345 movement speed. I question why he has 345 movement speed when he can't get flow stacks from his e. Would it really be bad to buff yasuo to have this extra movement speed?

edit - After looking through his patch notes, all yasuo has gotten is nerfs. He is no longer the champion he used to be. Giving back his original movement speed doesn't do too much.

LOL WHY? Dude already first buys statik shiv, usually builds a bork too. Give Zyra the 5 MS buff.

Let's buff the movement speed of one of the most mobile champions in the game. K.

If you ever make a thread saying positive things about Yasuo, you will be downvoted.

Such is the way of GD.

Probably due to the fact that he can dash, dash, dash all over enemies and his ult has a blink attached to it. The fact that he builds items that contain lots of MS also play a part in it now. I think he should have the MS of mord.

Err...no.

why not?

Because he's already extremely mobile and his items give him extra move speed already.

Two things:

His core power, the double crit passive, remains untouched, so his main power is still OP.
That +5 movement speed was already given to him in Patch 4.21 plus he uses Dashes to be mobile around creeps defining his infinite amount of mobility to a further extent, so you can stop bumping this useless thread now.

To be fair, he had 350 cut down to 340 in 4.18 and they gave 5 of it back in 4.21. Still shouldnt be buffed though.

Which is why it seems best to stick his movement speed capped at 345. Remember how OP he was back during the 2013 release?

Yasuo was already suppose to be built more mobile into purchasing stuffs like item 3078 item 3087 & the fact that he can E through enemies in a teamfight to confuse enemies into missing skillshots or to run away/chase from a teamfight, is the few reasons why he shouldn't be slapped with more base movement speed for this.

Yasuo was easily the most overrated champion of Season 4, but yes, he shouldn't be buffed. He's in a solid place right now and the only reason people are complaining about Yasuo again is that the community as a whole has gotten far, far better at the champion in the last year.

So technically, your purpose here is only to annoy people. Or knowing you can't master Yasuo, so currently you wanted that +5 ms to win more games huh.

Yasuo's mobility is already more utilized in using his E dashes more often, or ulting to a distant airborned enemy by your own Q or a team's knockup. Giving him even more movement speed despite all this will literally be asking Riot to nerf his damage next.

Yeah, lets increase the MS on a champ who has too much mobility already. For god's sake, he has unlimited dashes as long as enemies are around.

The ADC WizardOct 3, 20151 votes

but they have a 6 second cool down on what you dash. The movement speed buff is just to seperate him from different champions. . It's not for just running and killing, it's so he has an easier time generating flow stacks.

LuggOct 3, 20151 votes

The CD is for that one target only.

He generates flow from his dashes already. A good Yas has his passive shield up every 5-6 seconds when minions are around.

Champions always have numbers that are tuned high to help with the new player's learning curve, which are eventually tuned down. That's how all champions are, and always will be. Your definition of nerfing after release is actually a normalization procedure.

This post wont go away until it's deleted. So you will see it for a month, a year, or until I am unable to continue through other means than losing determination.
