Quality of life change for people who face Yasou.

A lot of Yasou's unseen power comes from the minions he dashes through and when he can dash though them again. It is unfair to keep track of every minion and yourself. By allowing a visual indicator that everyone can see you effectively close the gap between low mmr players and high mmr players. A common argument for this is a good player would be able to keep track of the information, but with everything that you have to keep track of in this game why complicate it even more. Anyway this is my idea of targeting Yasou without actually nerfing his stats. Positive comments and feedback against this is more then welcome.

they already talked about this before and addressed it earlier this year. the reason they don't do this is not because they don't feel its fair. but because it would add more visual clutter to the game when there is already a ton of stuff visually happening in the game. they feel it would make the lane too "busy".

personally I'm not entirely sure I agree with that as Yasuo sees it himself anyway...but whatever. that's their logic.

Couldn't agree more.

It'd be like Irelia's Q and that's definitely a good change

dashing we can work on, but I'd rather just see that crit passive nuked into oblivion. Crit is VERY easy for him to get these days and it SEEMS to quickly approach a point where the only "counterplay" is just 'don't make any mistakes'. Which....is not counterplay. It's more of a lame excuse.

His mobility and shield is a pain in the butt, and of the two I'd nerf the mobility first after taking away that crit bullshit, but thus far at this point I feel like his excessive damage is what frustrates me and makes me feel bad playing against him. Eventually you're gonna run out of minions to dash to, or you're gonna get smacked with the Veigar E or a TF Gold Card or otherwise CC'd.

His mobility is an annoyance, but the mobility combined with crippling amounts of damage makes it so I basically need chemotherapy upon seeing him locked in at champion select unless I do something like pick Illaoi and then...well....

I'm sure there's art for what happens after that.

This would be a nightmare to see as a Yasuo player. He would be forced to play passive, and then he would be a lot easier to gank. In my opinion a lot of his power comes from doing good in lane by having SKILL, and then profiting from the advantage you created earlier in the game. Fucking his early game is a bad idea.

a true QOL change for people who play against Yasuo is

-drumrolls-

git gud scrubs!

there are many MANY champions who are far more bullshit to lane against than a lane against Yasuo and at the same time being a lot safer to ganks too. a lane against Yasuo should be really easy if you're not a scrub

i think the best QOL would be to simply remove yasuo from the game because im just getting sick of him, he's either on my team refusing to go ap, or on the enemy team going 30/0/1 because everyone forgot to pay attention
