Yasuo Wind Wall: Let's Discuss What it Shouldn't Block

Mister Modesty·Oct 2, 2016·5 votes·2,301 views

It can be frustrating when your ultimate is blocked by a gust of wind. I have three abilities in mind- but please, feel free to comment some more.

Aurelion Sol: Starsurge A galactic field of stars being terminated by a gust of wind? Come on. Besides, Yasuo's kit is a hard counter to Aurelion's. Let's give Sol a small break.

Sona: Crescendo Probably debatable. Wind does absorb sound to some degree, but I think that's just giving Yasuo too much power.

Nami: Tidal Wave A popular discussion when it comes to the OP Wind Wall. Poor Nami.

A better question would be why a star dragon bigger than the Solar System is smaller than a boulder and is being outrun by a rat with a blowgun.

Also stop using the Nami argument trying to prove Yasuo or his Windwall is OP. It's an argument for Riot to move their asses and recode those old abilities.

On the side now why don't you complain that Nami's ult is blocked by Braum despite it affecting her much more, hm?

Abilities aren't balanced off realism/accuracy to lore/thematicness. It's the same reason why a rat with a blowgun can kill a star dragon.

Windwall will always be busted because it's a perfect ultimate for a support champ.

In my opinion Windwall needs to be nerf really hard. I would even go so far to say that if it does block an Ultimate that alone should "shatter"/break the wall!

So nerf yi's Q because it can dodge an entire ult and nerf fizz's troll pole too? Along with all shields that can block an ultimate worth of damage? K

The problem here starts with you trying to apply real world logic to League.

But yeah, that windwall is quite powerful.

The fact that Nami's ultimate can be blocked by WW makes no sense to me xD. Here are some others that I think shouldn't be blocked:

Diana - (W) Pale Cascade.

Fiora - (W) Riposte.

Hecarim - (R) Onslaught of Shadows.

Nautilus - (E) Riptide

Poppy - (R) Keeper's Verdict

Soraka - (Q) Starcall

Taliyah - (R) Weaver's Wall

Why are you trying to put logic in a video game? And no, Yasuo's windwall is what makes him a fucntional Madc unlike Yi or Trynd. It doesn't needs any nerf.s
