Yasuo Doesn't Need a Nerf

This is what everyone complains about - When Yasuo gets fed he rinses everyone... But just counterpick him and watch him be more useless then your nan in a marathon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAFqb5yxM4E&feature=youtu.be

(And these are only the LANE counters) Don't be an idiot and just stand there and die to him, run around his windwall and dodge his Q's (they aren't that hard to juke). In teamfights just run him down, burst him and he can't do anything. Try to bait out his windwall and watch him crumble.
Punish him for csing in lane with these champs, make him take damage for CS so he has less $$ - he is basically useless when behind.

Nope. Everyone complains because he is complete bullshit to play against since minute one.

But just counterpick him and watch him be more useless then your nan in a marathon.

And this is simply not true. Unlike other skirmishers, Yasuo can have his engage covered by teammates, giving him crapton of agency even if he loses lane. Just because he can't 1v5 doesn't mean he is useless if he isn't 4-0 in 7 minutes.

Counterpick =/= Counterplay. Just because Yasuo might be hard countered by Rammus in lane doesn't detract from the fact that he's bullshit to play against for over 100 other champions in the game

" Bullshit aside Yasuo is a broken champion. People say he's a high skillcap champion, but the secret with Yasuo is knowing how to control yourself while playing such a overpowered champion. Yasuo's weakness comes from the fact that he is too strong. His laning phase is so strong that after the laning phase people do not know how to keep calm and throw the game. "

His unlimited free farming dash is what's oppressive, the rest of his kit is just annoying not terrible.

Well at least if you're going to make a "yasuo doesn't needs nerfs" post you could come up with valid points....

lol, that makes a don't nerf Yasuo thread completely trustworthy.

Yasuo gets 2 passives, each which are alone better than half the other passives in the game; both major damage skills have under a second cooldown with no mana costs to manage his high spam skills; 3 different forms of defense in his dash kiting, windwall, and shield; 4 variable damage multiplying - AD x crit chance x crit chance multiplier x post ult armor reduction; and hard CC (the type that can't even be cleansed or affected by tenacity) that can be cast every few seconds.

And that's just pointing out the broken parts of his kit. Each of those are oppressive on their own, but he has all of that thrown together. I'll agree that Yasuo doesn't need a nerf, but he definitely needs a rework. The moment he came out, I didn't even need to see him in game. I knew from reading his kit alone that he was going to be a bullshit champion.
