Yasuo The unforgiven I mean Unforgiving.

hello guys again, i was just feeling my favorite champ Yasuo is really under powered right now. Hit with the nerf bat so hard that his master felt it and died. (probably the real reason he died not riven) His recent q buff was nice but i felt it didn't even address his issue. it was more like, eh i dont want to deal with it. here have some CDR. At this point his HP is so low that 1 mistake almost Garentees death while other champs can still make 2-3 mistakes and still kill you.

(I was beating an arhi 3/0/1 to 1/3/0) and I was a good level ahead. Out of nowhere she just ults in with no regrets. I did the PERFECT wall. It blocked her first ult dmg, her q and e but she dash once more and w ult ignited me and got me with her refreshed q... I died. lvl 7 vs lvl 6 and she missed half her skill shots and still got me from full hp. that somehow doesn't sit right with me. I on the other hand hit her with 2 stack e. 2 q and ignite and she lived with about 100 hp. That just doesn't seem right with me.

This is also with the rumored ie nerfs. But its PBE who knows.

Btw As usual I'm a bit dramatic with my wording so don't take it to heart :P. Its not a qq forum, its just me sharing an experience I had that just made me go Whoa, that's not even fair. and legitly asking the community.

The only thing he's unforgiving about is when noobs are playing him. Guy takes approximately zero skill outside of a small amount of positioning. He's like Yi but with range, without mana, and an ult that pretty much guarantees team fight wins if you hit it on at least three people.

Yasuo's just fine how it he his. Give him an inch and he'll take a mile, mark my words.

He's still breathing, nerf him again. Nerf him to Urgot tier. Fk Yasuo.

Seems like he's okay now, but another nerf might be pushing it?

Personally, I think Yasuo is in a pretty okay spot. Especially with every new champion having 14 knock ups making him the Lee Sin of the mid lane. As in, he's fitting into every single team comp thanks to his straight up impossible to miss ult. Yasuo's damage is still pretty obscene late game if he isn't bursted down, his passive is enough to keep him alive in many lane matchups, and his wind wall is still the most infuriatingly powerful spell in the game.

Losing to a Ahri like that though isn't very surprising. Seems like the only burst she actually missed out on was her W which by that point in the game doesn't do much uncharmed anyways. However 2 charges of her ult plus both rotations on the Q while you were charmed & ignited? As Yasuo, that seems pretty reasonable. Ahri isn't feast or famine, as an Ahri player I can usually turn a lost lane around with a level 6 all in without jungle presence. And getting my charm landed is where her damage comes from due to it basically being a DFG. So... basically what I'm getting at is she got her full burst off, you didn't (no ult, perhaps no crits?).

I'd be all for buffing Yasuo a bit if windwall didn't block skillshots touching Yasuo AS he casts windwall though. If anythings unfair it's the most forgiving timing of that bloody thing.

I play alot of Yasuo (Would like to call him a main, but I still have to get a decent ranked score as him. Don't play Ranked alot and the ones I did were when I wasn't as good) and while I feel the most recent nerf hit him hard, he deserved a majority of it (Even though the nerf hit him in places that weren't relevant). I complained for a little while but I just had to get used to the higher CD on his E before I was back to dominating mid lane.

The latest buff is a nice QoL for him. What I want happening though is to reduce Crit damage to 80% from 90% and then either increasing duration of wind shield or increasing his base health.

Ahri is a burst mage with short CD's on her abilities. Why are you surprised she can kill you?
