Yasuo is cancer

BustyLoliChan··25 votes·3,745 views

At least from an ADC standpoint... or... at least from my standpoint...

I don't understand how the hell I'm supposed to deal with this kek and his god damn wall and I certainly don't understand how to keep him out of my face.

I've shut down Yasuo's pretty hard in lane before too only to still watch them flip teammates like burgers and deal shit tons of damage by the end of the game.

I've never played the champion so I don't know his weaknesses, but from the outside looking in he looks like no skill OP trash. How do I play against this kek?

Yep and once the ten ban system comes out I will make sure he's banned in 100% of my games. #nomoretoxicchamps

So that's just it? If you play ADC sucks to be you?

There's not even like an itemization or a way to prepare for it? :/

I main Yasuo and play Yorick quite a bit.

You don’t want to be Yorick against Yasuo. Trust me.

Did you see this post? Funny, despite all the upvotes I cannot find it on the boards anymore. Riot sure loves Yasuo and Lee

So they're just known cancer and nobody at riot agrees or does anything about it?

Sismetic Chaos1 votes

They're not known cancer, it's a circlejerk in low ELO's from people who have never played him and doesn't know how to play against him. That's why Riot doesn't do anything, it's not a real thing. I believe the latest nerf was because the circlejerk had reached toxic levels, although he didn't need a nerf low ELO(which is most people) people on the board spoke trash and he was unplayable, so they did a non-nerf nerf and it lowered the circlejerk, even though it wasn't that big of a nerf

No he is not. Yasuo is annoying, overloaded and just plain broken. Cancer is a very serious sickness, that kills people after making them live in heavy pain, being forced to poison their own bodys just to increase their chance to survive by a few %. Learn the fucking difference!

Yasuo is cancer and cancer kills. Thankfully, there are champs in this game that desperately need killing. Someone needs to deal with the Twitches of the world.

His just like any skirmisher & assassin who will destroy an adc, What's your argument?

BustyLoliChan1 votes

My point is I can't deal with him. How do I deal with him?

I have to imagine there isn't some professional league player going to the final tourney who is like. Oh gee, the enemy team picked Yasuo, I guess we're going to lose.

How do those people deal with this? How do I deal with Yasuo?

AmazoX1 votes

You won't be able to deal with any skirmisher & assassin either?

These people can easily deal with Yasuo is because, The higher the elo or in LC$, Teams are coordinated, Melee champions that aren't affected by Yasuo wind wall all of them can end the game while Yasuo is rendered useless.

''How do I deal with Yasuo'' You play with your team, Like how you would play with any other skirmisher/assassin.

honestly the problem with yasuo is that, even tho he does have weaknesses, does he at the same time also have too many tools to deal with them. this means the only way to deal with him is if he messes up, makeing the counter play that most champions has to use against him completely unreliable.

it's one thing to have a few tools to play around weaknesses, it's another to be able to control when your weaknesses can be used by the opponent.

if yasuo's weakness is suppose to be focus and CC then he shouldn't have an ability that allow him to ignor most damage and CC in the game for 4 sec, on top of a shield + being able to dash multible times and avoiding skillshots.

Only problem is his mobility in laning phase. Ability to close in on enemies. He's shitty otherwise.

BustyLoliChan1 votes

Except isn't the extreme advantage mobility provides in this game the entire reason they nerfed/reworked/removed almost all the runspeed items that use to be in the game?

As an ADC, I am right there with you, his windwall is hard to deal with. If he uses it badly, or in a bad spot, it can be easy enough to deal with; but with any kind of jungle fight, you wind up having to walk into melee range to get past the wall.

Certain adcs with high mobility can out skirmish him for sure, like Vayne, lucian, caitlyn to an extent, and sometimes Ez (although I feel ez is weak against him). I would honestly just look forward to when we can have personal bans and until then, just try to trek through.

Why? It's expensive as fudge and doesn't give a lot of damage.... The slow is nice and it triggles me that ashe's build in slow isn't more like the one on it but otherwise it's cost AF.

It's not that hard, depends on the ADC you're playing. From a Yas perspective, if it's teamfight you have peel and Yas has to go through your whole team as a squishy melee in order to "get" you.... not happening, specially with CC supports. Let's say he dashes through two champs, encounters your Leona, get's stunned in the middle of your team and dies in 2 seconds while his team says "Yasuo mains are cancer" :D. On lane, with you having minions is harder because he has more mobility, but what ADC stands in her wave? You always have more range from the wave.

Let's look at Vayne for example: Yasuo can either dash through a minion to get to your level, dash through you, or walk to you; but unless you're really badly positioned he can't dash through minions to get to you, but if that's the case, then you've already been outplayed. So he has to either walk to you, or dash to you. If he walks to you then he gets free damage as ADC's deal tons of damage, and if he walks he has 4-5 seconds of him taking free damage and he's dead before getting to you. Let's say he windwalls in order to stop the damage, but his windwall goes in front of him, but he still has to walk in front, nullifying his own windwall, he only defends against a few damage. If you're Vayne, you can condemn him if he gets too close by walking and tumble away while still killing him. It's a free kill for you. If he dashes through you, then you automatically condemn and tumble away, making his dash useless, and he has to either choose to walk to you and die, or take damage while trying to escape(maybe dying). Same thing with ADC's such as Caitlyn for example, with her dashing away and her traps(if Yasuo gets trapped without windwall, free kill, if he has windwall, he can't attack). If Ashe gets his R he's also dead because he can't windwall. If he ults his windwall, while Ashe moves away, with his slows without Yasuo having dashes he's also dead. Ezreal? He's impossible to kill as Yasuo, he has free flashes and slows(as Iceborn Gauntlet it's a common item), even with minions he's VERY hard to deal with. Graves has a small dash away and a blindness. Corki also has his mobility and his dash away. Draven? He shits on Yasuo, even with windwall he deals a lot of damage, and if he comes melee range Draven can E him. Kalista has dashes so he's kitable. Lucian also dashes away. Quinn? Another ADC that beats Yasuo, Quinn has two abilities that counter Yasuo, his silence, and his E. Tristana can jump away. Sivir? She has no dash away or the like, so she's the more vulnerable one, but she has so much damage that she's no sitting duck. Urgot as ADC? Are you kidding me, he's so strong, cc-like, etc.. even on top he shits on Yasuo. Varus? He's probably the most vulnerable ADC if you as Yas can WW his ult. Vayne? Hardest adc to kill as Yas. Xayah, he's mid-difficulty to kill.

Bottom line is Yasuo needs melee range and only has a single dash. His windwall is defensive but also you need to be offensive to win a trade, because while he can mitigate that damage, he can't attack back. The only way windwall is effective against an ADC is when you're already in melee range, so you can defend against ranged attacks in melee range, while you deal damage in melee range, otherwise you just waste your windwall. The thing is, ADCs got a defense in their kit against assassins. Yasuo is not an assassin, he's a fighter, btw. Riot needs they need a defense against Zed's, Rengo's, K6, etc.. which are the real threats to ADC's. So most ADC's got a defense(jump, shield, dash away, mobility, slows, stuns) in order to defend against assassins, and with them they can create a gap between them and Yasuo.

Does this help?

It's simple OP you just wait until next season hits; just Like you're supposed to wait for a malignant tumor to grow and spread.
