He got buffed from mid season crit changes.

Did you even read why they nerfed him? They nerfed him, because he got buffed lmao

_Yasuo was already on the cusp of being too powerful and midseason’s cost reductions to critical strike items just pushed him over the edge. We’re reducing the amount of pressure he exerts by sitting on Q stacks to give opponents more chances to play against him. _

Even then, the nerf to ninja tabi is better than this nerf for yasuo. Overall, he got buffed this patch.

never nerfed like yasuo

Is that some kind of joke?.

Yas nerfs: Q STACK DURATION: 10 seconds ⇒ 6 seconds. Sweeping Blade DAMAGE: 70/90/110/130/150 ⇒ 60/70/80/90/100 NEW RATIO: Now has an 0.2 bonus attack damage ratio (does not increase with stacks of Sweeping Blade)

Kat E - Shunpo COOLDOWN: 10/9.5/9/8.5/8 seconds ⇒ 14/12.5/11/9.5/8 seconds BASE MAGIC RESISTANCE: 34 ⇒ 32 E - Shunpo RATIO: 0.65 total attack damage ⇒ 0.5 total attack damage

Ahri and cait actually got nerfed this patch. But you didnt see that, all you saw was a yasuo nerf.

Cait: BASE ATTACK SPEED: 0.568 ⇒ 0.543 LV1 BONUS ATTACK SPEED: 10% ⇒ 15% ATTACK SPEED AT LV10: .625 (unchanged) REMOVED HURRICANE HEADSHOT: Runaan’s Hurricane bolts no longer stack Headshot

ahri: R - Spirit Rush RATIO: (30% PER BOLT ABILITY POWER) ⇒ (25% PER BOLT ABILITY POWER) E - Charm RATIO: (50% ABILITY POWER) ⇒ (60% ABILITY POWER) W - Fox-Fire RATIO: (40% PER WISP ABILITY POWER) ⇒ (30% PER WISP ABILITY POWER) MAX RATIO VS SAME TARGET: (64% ABILITY POWER) ⇒ (48% ABILITY POWER)

Teemo and garen aren't very strong, i dont understand the complait here.

Dude are you kidding???? The mid season crit changes were meant to make adc's like jinx viable again. The only thing that benefited Yasuo was lowering Infinity Edges cost, but at the same time they increased Phantom Dancers cost so its as if nothing changed about him.

zeal is 100 gold less. pd is 50 gold more. ie is 200 gold less. ninja tabi got nerfed. GA is better for yas now. Tanks have more armor to pen and have less health.

All of these together are easily a bigger buff, than Q 10>6 seconds is a nerf.

Your champion got buffed, and everyone else OP is complaining about got real nerfs.

Regardless of zeal, pd and ie... the only thing going for yasuo right now is spending 150 total gold less than before. GA change is cool but its more of a last item for yasuo, not something he buys early, so it has little effect on him because the Q nerf was aimed towards yasuos early game poke, not late game which is where he'd buy GA. Plus if Yasuo's really concerned about a tank he'll buy BoRK. Even Scarra and other people officiated with Riot said the change was aimed towards ad carrys, not Yasuo. Crit just happens to be part of Yasuos kit. None of the item changes had a major influence on Yasuo, or at least not enough to consider it a buff. The q change hit him really hard, I just think it should go back to being 10 seconds, or at the very least 8.

Any changes to ADC itemization is going to effect yasuo. You can't just ignore it because people talked about it in relation to ADCs. He can't hold is Q for another 4 seconds. Nothing changed about him in terms of his damage or playstyle.

He has less lane pressure early, it makes yasuo shove a bit more if he wants to have nado stacks. This is true. You didnt say anything about that. You just pretended like my points didn't effect Yasuo at all.

His early game poke? No. If anything, you'd poke more with this change. You don't poke by holding your tornado for 10 seconds. You don't even know what the nerf does. If you hold your nado for 'poke' then this is not a change that effects you. This is a change on pressure and lane management.

https://www.reddit.com/r/YasuoMains/ Alot of players here, think its fine, justified, not that bad, doesn't really matter.

Your points are all wrong, bork also got buffed for adcs, which means yasuo.

Lastly, You don't even play Yasuo. You have ~200 games on him over 3 years. https://imgur.com/6gzndJ4

I play on a laptop with garbage ping and fps. I don't play ranked games because i don't want to Que up, have my laptop potentially crash and ruin someones promos. So i play normal's.

Between my 1 silver 4 account which has 370K and lvl 7 mastery on yasuo, and my other bronze 4 account with roughly 160K lvl 7 mastery, I have played my fair share of yasuo. I'm in no way disputing what you're saying and I'm sorry if its coming off like that, i get that you're a significantly higher rank then myself, peaking at low to mid diamond, but I have played Yasuo since his release and all I'm saying is as a yasuo main, you can really feel this change to yasuo more then you feel the item buffs. Numbers or no numbers, this change has really made yasuos nados clunky and tougher to hit because you have less time to anticipate where to throw your tornado so that your opponent walks into it.

I'm sure the Yasuo community will get used to the change, i just refer back to my original statement that the nerf wasn't needed, because unlike a targetable twisted fate gold card, katarina Q or pantheon spear (all of which deal substantially more damage then a yasuo tornado or q) yasuos slow skillshot was hard to land as it is(without trying to predict where your opponent will be) because the opposing laner can easily walk out of its range even while its coming at them.

I suppose it's just me and i don't want to get caught up it an argument, I appreciate your opinion man, I just disagree.

His passive should be nerfed too. Remove his shield.

ReySolomon1 votes

It's easy to remove it one aa then go all in xD.

Michael7021 votes

Yeah. Meanwhile he gets to Q you in the face for free. And you gotta pop his shield again before the fight is over.

Not if you pick a ranged champion, I've easily beaten yasuo with Vladimir/chogath < because of the silence W/ Fizz/ Tryndamere

Yea dude. Half of laning vs a yasuo is not being a dumbass. That includes not picking fuckin Syndra against him and then complaining that his e is so broken that you cant land a ball, or walking into him lvl 1-2 and losing half your hp. If you have even half the brain capacity of a donkey, you can beat a Yasuo.

Exactly!

Why is that bull shit? lots of champs like malz, Blitzcrank and pantheon have similar passives but theirs are even more broken. Malz gets a free banshees veil, pantheon negates all damage every 4 attacks, and Blitz gets a shield worth 3/4 of his hp as soon as he gets 2 mana items. All yasuo does is get a shield that blocks an auto when he moves around for a long period of time.

Critmaster Garen1 votes

the reason why theyre not nerfing garen is, that despite being probably the most buffed champion in this game, hes still literally worse than urgot and aatrox was a couple patches ago above diamond 5.

they keep buffing him and still cant make him viable. why would they even thin of nerfing him?
