Hey, I love yasuo as a champ. I'm not sure if he's up, op, of balanced. But I do know that he has a 75 percent ban rate which is extremely high. So, I was wondering if others think he will get nerfed. It won't bother me that much because I plan to main him regardless; however, I would still like to hear other opinions.
I doubt that Yasuo will be nerfed, because I think that Crit itemization is probably gonna be nerfed. There was a price increase to Infinity Edge that was on the PBE a while back, and while it was never pushed to live, it does seem to indicate that Riot is trying to maybe tone down the two item powerspike you can get with Shiv/Infinity Edge.
So, if Riot is planning to nerf Yasuo's core items, I imagine that they'll wait to see what sort of effect that will have on his power before actually hitting him directly.
I personally think that Yasuo is on the upper bounds of balanced at the moment, and people are still banning him because A) He was nerfed very gradually, so there was never a patch with the narrative of "oh, Yasuo's bad now" like there was for Soraka/Kayle, and B) Because everyone remembers that one game where the enemy Yasuo hard carried and they still have emotional scars.
I don't see him receiving any sort of new nerfs. No real reason for him to get nerfed.
His crit scaling is ridiculous right now, so if I want to nerf him, I'll start with that.. HIs dash is kinda his niche (along with his ult) so nerfing that will destroy him...I think if you nerf his crit scaling passive, he should be balanced...
I think the best nerf for Yasuo right now would be a combination of a small nerf with a clarity improvement. His passive is already strong with just the crit, the shield is overkill. His shield increases his skill cap (a good Yasuo trades in Lane with the shield) so I definitely don't want it removed. I think first, a huge clarity change, make the shield appear when his flow fills up, so others know when he won't be taking damage. The nerf, make the shield deplete if not used after activating, so an opponent can wait out the shield before engaging. Basically none of his power is taken away, he just has to use his shield better, and it's easier for teammates to recognize when the shield is available and easier to find time when it's down to engage on. This keeps him as powerful with a high skill cap, while hopefully making him less annoying to play against.
The thing with 
is that you can either have a really good game, or a really bad one, which for me kinda spells balance... it all depends in how you play him, cause it can definitely lean to either side.
Reason why I don't think/feel he is getting a nerf (nor he needs one)
Read the patch 4.17 notes. They fixed some bug with his Q-E combo or something, but they are also looking into making him more balanced,(which he already is).
Please Rito 
, don't nerf D:
He's strong, but not overwhelmingly so. However, he isn't very fun to play against if you're skillshot dependent, and strong + unfun = he's getting a nerf. Maybe not tomorrow, but he will eventually get hit, and hopefully in a way that makes him less frustrating to face and not just a flat hit to his power.
personally i can see why people think that he is OP but at the same time its only the fact that he can get reckless kills since his base health is some what high for a mid lane player. his crit is annoying but if they just drop his health a little it wont be so bad since when he goes and gets 3 or 4 kills but usually only survives with around less than 200 health left afterwards. if he where to have less health he would have to play a lot more passively so that he doesn't die trying to kill 2 or more people at once. I really hope that they nerf his health so that his survival rate drops, but if they dont drop health than they should cut the crit down so that he has less power to his survivability.
I think a fair nerf would be to limit the amount of times he can dash within a certain time frame. Like maybe limit it to 2 dashes every 3-4 seconds or something. Like I always thought it was very frustrating dealing with him when a new wave came to lane because it just meant more mobility and damage potential.
