I hope you understand that this does not apply to certain weeblord champion with particularly oppressive laning phase and that he will need to be hit hard and immediately after those changes go live.

There's no way that our Riot Yasuo overlords could have made a Yasuo mistake in game balance. They've been so fair Yasuo and consistent Yasuo Yasuo throughout the years. I'm sure you're just overreacting Yasuo to this Yasuo tentative change. Don't let it frustrate Yasuo you too much. I'm sure everything will be okay Yasuo in the end. Yasuo Yasuo Yasuo

So I previously made a post about needing 3v3 partners to play some ranked flex. This guy added me, and he had Yasuo, Riven, and Vayne as his top played/higjest mastery champions. I asked him if he wanted to discord, and he warned me that he was 12 in real life but "sounded 15." He sounded like he was 6 on discord. To this day still lmao.

He is likely going through his "Edgy Weeb" Phase. Very common with people born around 2000.

Yasuo isn't even good anymore. Granted with tanks becoming less tanky health wise and Yasuo shredding armor like it's nothing he might become strong again. But I still feel like atm assassins and mages are way better.

Yasuo isn't even the problem, tanks need to have way to mitigate crit damage in team fights, and adc like Caitlyn or Jinx is just gonna go off.

Caitlyn and jinx are supposed to go off late game.

CRIT ADCS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE STRONG LATE GAME

I swear some ppl dont seem to understand this.

NineTailedMystic4 votes

Who said anything about late game? Crits still do damage 20 min in. And Crit ADCs shouldn't be unstoppable monsters just because they reached late game.

The fucking funniest thing about Yasuo is that his power spike IS NOT DELAYED. He literally hits his powerspike at 2 items. Yasuo literally breaks the rules that Crit champions are supposed to abide by. But her, according to the leak we have a new Yasuo skin coming out, so let's hope that shit comes out soon.

Fiora Jhin Shaco Tryndamere Pantheon Say hello. To a lesser extend, Ashe & MissFortune

(Probably missing a few. I'm not too big on Right-clickers.)

Sexy Jack Rabbit5 votes

Shaco, Fiora, and Pantheon aren't crit-based champions. They interact with crit, but technically so can Anivia. I don't know the last time I saw a Pantheon or Fiora building an infinity edge.

Jhin kind of a balancing mess tbh but you are correct.

Ashe is a utility marksman, and besides that Korean build, her crit power spike is delayed. Miss Fortune is just an Armor pen ADC. I don't know how builds Crit-Fortune at this point, but even when she does build it, it takes a while to ramp up.

Ashe and MF don't really break the rules, as they're either building something else entirely, or abiding by them.

Ariel the Cruel2 votes

They can all guaranteed crit starting at lvl 1.

Sexy Jack Rabbit5 votes

There's no problem with that though. You may as well add Rengar to the list.

Traditional Crit rules are for the champion to reach full potential in the late-game, Yasuo just spits all over that by reaching his mid-game and then just becoming bs late game.

Supreme Senpai691 votes

How can MF crit at level 1? Ashe can with her W but her crits don't deal extra damage so it's not really even a crit. And she's using mana to deal 20 more damage than just using an AA. Jhin can crit level 1 but the enemy sees a giant red bar so if he goes in to use it he'll probably die, and his crits deal less damage than average. Shaco's crits are from backstabbing someone and he totally isn't gonna do that level 1 because he jungles.

And Tryndamere is just a piece of shit

Ariel the Cruel2 votes

How can MF crit at level 1?

When Q kills the first target, it crits the second. They changed it from a raw damage bonus last patch.

Ashe can with her W but her crits don't deal extra damage so it's not really even a crit.

Crit chance is converted into % bonus damage on passive affected targets. Not limited to her W. I wasn't talking about her slow crit.

That's why I filed her under "to a lesser extent."

And Tryndamere is just a piece of shit

Yes. Yes he is.

Hella Kaiser2 votes

Draven 1 axe, 1900 dmg crits...

Q doesn't crit. It just adds raw damage.

In that vain though... Caitlyn passive crits. Vayne Tumble crits.

Lord Desert9 votes

Well the team that works on it clearly had a few drinks to many and/or went insane... Crit Champs are SUPPOSED to have a "delayed power curve" because their powercurves end with a reliable 2,5x dmg multiplier! Which provides enough burst vs squishys and because of the Crit items also a high dps/sustained dmg.

The crit reduction helps to fight against snowballed Crit Champs, like last wisper vs fed tanks. If they now get ahead of their "delayed powercurve" its gg. You now have lower HP, minimal more armor, which will get reduced by 50% and more and no extra crit reduction... all in all tanks get nerfed vs AD(+ new GA).

It doesn't matter if it applies to him or not

49% win rate, and is never picked in master+ because he just sucks against competent players

if people could stop the circlejerk it would be a relief

i don't even think there is a rhetoric in the first place, according to my lectures rhetoric is the art of talking well. But they don't even talk, just qq

That's why you have to main support, you don't find anything frustrating. Except other broken supports

ADC

i don't have any problems with adcs, that being said i wish for them to not be meta

and actually, my wish is being fullfied with the new doran shield

i'm just going to try playing darius/morde (who happens to have 64% win rate in the adc role according to leagueofgraph, and for darius only because of me), take preservence+doran shield+maybe hp regen quints and then farm without interacting with them

The Last Ballad3 votes

From what arguments I have read from this person, he tends to rank high on that hypocrisy scale. He sometimes has good points, but his tone. It just screams "condescending 'I'm-smarter-than-thou' douche" or something of that sort. I hope he isn't actually like that(I really do), but the way he speaks is reminiscent to the word choice/tone that the typical "condescending 'I'm-smarter-than-thou' douche" in books does.

It annoys me, and the fact that he is all over the boards right now makes it worse.

he goes 0-15 in lane teammate uses a targeted knock up he presses r gets kill ends 30-15

Yi, Jax and Tryn are all extremely telegraphed. Yasuo dashes 4 times, in the period it takes Yi to Alpha Strike once.

he just sucks against competent players

the biggest difference between a master player and a silver player facing yas is that the master player has the PATIENCE to deal with yas while the silver player tilts very easily.

the fact that in master+ he has a 49% win rate doesn't change the fact that he's annoying and unfun to play against. when people say that yas is cancer they mean that laning against him gave them cancer because yas is unfun and annoying to lane against. they are not saying that he's op (because he's not) or that he has an overloaded kit (well, kind of). they say that it's not fun to play against him.

So you are saying that people find him unfun to play against, But you forgot to add that's because 99% of the league player base are low ELO and are impatient and tilt very easily just like you have stated about the mere huge difference between a Masters and Silver player.

is that the master player has the PATIENCE to deal with yas while the silver player tilts very easily.

This^

Also don't forget there is a huge circle jerk going around Yasuo/Riven/Zed every time people are reminded that they exist.

Hella Kaiser6 votes

yeah, a master player that's dying inside because of yasuo but can still counter him easily is still dying inside. the problem with low-mid elo players is that they don't only die inside, they also die in-game and rage.

personally yas is just annoying so istead of dealing with him i just freeze lane and only wait for ganks cos i don't have patience for his bs. you woul see me playing only with the mouse ignoring yas and just csing. i know it's not a good idea... but at least i don't tilt. i usually tilt bc of yas when i destroy him in lane and he in some way gets a penta when he was something like 2/14/5... rarely happens recently.

but you have to admit that his kit is a bit overloaded. (just a bit).

Except they have hinted at changing how crit functions. . . Maybe we are looking at a point where it is reliable instead of RNG.
