I think 1 of the biggest holes in Yasuo's design...

Look,i don't play much yasuo,but its already pretty clear that any champion that happens to be resourceless needs to be bound by high to decent early cooldowns,Yasuo however completely disregards this rule,with his only real cooldown gate being his W(his ult is a low cd when compared to most other Ults)Both Q and E are quite spammable,the fact that his Q cooldown also goes down the more yasuo levels up,his E so as long as there is a unique target yasuo can dash to them

and as for examples of the high to decent cooldowns rule for resourceless champions Zed,his W has a 20+ second cooldown and his ult has a 120 second cooldown,E cooldown is also pretty decent

Shen his Q has a low cooldown,but his ult,W and E all are gated by fair cooldowns(especially since Q doesn't do anything if he can't get them)

Riven Cooldowns can get fairly low late game,but early game all her cooldowns are pretty mediocre and her ult has a cooldown of 120 seconds

there are more examples

and I'm prepared to be down voted into the next dimension

I partially agree. Only manaless champions with less mobility (e.g Garen Shyvana Mordekaiser) have little cooldowns.

shen and zed aren't resourceless and neither is yasuo

shen and zed are both rewarded for aggressive play and both do a lot more than yasuo

Yasuo's mobility forces him to push

Yasuo's main pushing item forces him to push

Yasuo's passive forces him to push

Yasuo's passive prevents him form relying on critical strikes for damage lategame

Control the wave and you've dealt with yasuo as well

He just doesn't have an exploitable weakness or else he would be kinda like Katarina
