Yasuo is a balanced, fair, and non oppressive champ to play against.

I'd agree to the first two. But he is rather oppressive for some champs.

Well... I mean if you have a worse early game than him, then sure... but that's why champs like Panth, Renekton and Rumble are good in lane. They all have really great early games.

Again just like i've said in the rest of the Yasuo 'joke' threads, The difference is where is that actual fine line of Early/Mid/Late game for champions. Unless you take a snowball level beating, it feels like its difficult for late game champions to thrive, while some early game champs don't actually seem to get a point of falling off till their opponent has caught up in building with them.

Plus Renekton, Rumble and Pantheon are top lane champions, Yasuo pretty much sticks in the mid lane for the most part where the only times i see him in top lane is when the person is trying to be a edgelord or they are playing Yasuo in top because they are extremely skilled with them or to hard counter the opponent.

Does not help when 'tank' item built champions like LeeSin seem to not fall off on scaling fast enough when from what i recall he is suppose to thrive in early game but suck in late game, yet all he needs is a hydra or black cleaver and a bunch of tank items to go jump into a enemy team, AoE blast them like a brand and done right he can easily pull off a team kill in a team fight. I know Lee is suppose to be a Diver, but i don't think that should allow him to easily pull off high amounts of damage, just like how Hecarim can do the same with one damage item, easily jump into a fight, run out of a fight and even use his R to fear disperse the enemy team to pick off a squishie.

Course on that same sense i feel like Rammus where'ever his supposed 'prime game' is suppose to be, it feels like he's just dicking on you with his mini-stun roll and then taunting you and dragging you straight to his enemy lane friend or even sometimes right under his team's turret to free pot shot you. Then he just turns into this unkillable harass monster in late game less you can hyper shred his armor or have a way to flat out ignore his damage resistance.

Point is, When a champion does not have a proper 'weak game' and a proper 'late game', and actually have it defined more by what is 'early game' and when does 'late game' start for them to show off their own power drops and power spikes. Yasuo even without his R feels like he can be a scummy mobile champion who can sustain strong enough and he goes full on damage bomb once he hits 6 and he can still pull off the same thing and roam into the late game. Reason im glad the Tanks should be next in line on reworks due to the fact that alot of champions, especially particular tanks just are complete salt fests to go against, to where i wish alot of particular ones had them get a good deal of CC dropped if they get to be such killable monsters with enough damage to beat the crap out of you.

All right other than not being oppressive.
