Is Yasuo getting fixed soon?

EasyLaneGG·Jun 24, 2018·23 votes·4,853 views

Few items and he takes no damage, yet outputs insane damage. High end players know this and he's abused to the fullest right now, so when is this going to be corrected?

yasuo has needed fixing for 5 years now and the only time they ever touched him was to hotfix buff him a few patches ago.

If 5 years later they still haven't even looked at him, you can probably expect they don't have any intention of nerfing him.

He'll stay a pick or ban champion forever.

Was Morgana ever touched? Her moderately high damage 2-3 second stupid cc guarantees a kill for whoever she's supporting and I feel that it's as busted as yasuos wind wall then again morgana actually has to aim it so it's not as braindead but the cc still lasts 5 hours

It was actually longer in the past, and she recently got a small rework gutting her midlane role (removing "permanent spellvamp" from her passive and only leaving in on monsters / elite minions)

Nice exaggeration, where did you do your exaggeration course?

Wizard BlazeJun 24, 20189 votes

worry not my child. soon when you reach higher levels you will join us in draft and ban yasuo all the times.

lool this again. Yasuo is a Plat and below problem. Check: http://euw.op.gg/champion/statistics . Yasuo has sub-50% winrate and less than 10% pickrate. He's trash in high elo because everyone knows how to counter him.

Playing swain vs him Auto attacked him proced his shield baited windwall out with e and then comboed him that game was fun.

Yasuo main can downvote but doesn't change the fact that people are essentially exploiting items on him. Whatever this game has gone to shit anyway.

Looks like yasuo mains did downvote

I'm not a Yasuo main but I down vote because being a Yasuo main takes skills and hundreds of games.

Except it doesn't. Yasuo has a +50% win rate across all elos after 9-10 games.

I’m done with this arguement. Literally clueless. It’s like the dunning Kruger effect.

Maybe go look up the stats for yourself? Yasuo's win rate is being tor%%%%ed by all of the wannabe heroes who fall on their faces. He's not a champion you can pick up and carry on your first game (like Talon for example), but it's hilarious that you think he needs hundreds of games to reach proficiency.

don't give me that bs. Go play him in rank for 10 games straight. I wanna see your win rate afterward. ITs amazing how a person who's never play Yasuo (or rarely whatever) understand him. He's very inconsistent which makes him even more terrible to have him in your team.

You asked where the stats were coming from. I showed you. Now that's BS too? I mean it's easy to just say "He takes hundreds of games played to get good with" but we can clearly verify that's not even remotely the case.

I mean, he has a learning curve. That's obvious. The wannabe hero Yasuo's just getting started with him have an abysmal win rate. This is probably compounded by the fact that he has a 65% ban rate and there are probably a lot of noob Yasuo's who auto-lock him anytime he's available (bad idea or not).

That said, the numbers clearly indicate across all elo's that he has a better than average win rate after 10 games played. You don't have to be a good Yasuo to carry. You just have to be a not-completely-clueless one.

If you are grouped up together, yeah it'll catch multiple people, but if you are decent length away then you wont get caught as well.

Always ban Yasuo.

You have to be a complete moron to believe Yasuo is in a good spot. Also no one gets free fucking items. Stop fucking lying on these circle jerks

Lotus BloomJun 24, 20184 votes

Really I think that Yasuo is not the strongest champion right now. He's definitely not weak, but in term of champions with one/two items spikes he's not the strongest. I believe that most of time he's picked currently is he's powerful against certain types of champions or comps (comps with traditional AD carries, Ornn, ect). Other champions that more generically pick/banned would be Irelia, Camile, and Vlad. Those all output large amounts of damage while also being way more generically safe then they go to put out their damage. Not to mention the insane damage output of lethality stacking champions right now.

He's defiantly not a weak, but I don't think he should be a target champion with a lot of the other shenanigans that's going on right now.

Dope SoloJun 24, 20182 votes

Ban/dodge. It works.

RainfallJun 24, 20182 votes

when will the champion that has kept a 60% banrate and 20%pickrate for 3 years be nerfed? When we get a real balance team

Modl Ryden lJun 24, 20182 votes

You'll get it eventually. That is if you haven't banned him every game and actually took time to learn how to play against him. It just takes practice.

Baron BarianJun 24, 20181 votes

He only becomes a problem when he gets a head. Even if you just stalemate him for a long time in laning phase, he'll actually be quiet easy to tilt.

Lol.

If only it was that easy.

He then gets 2 items and runs your team down.

Truly, a headless Yasuo is easy but one with a head becomes more problematic, one that has a head in good condition is actually scary.

Ahead? He's the poster-boy for the 0/10 powerspike.

bro. u fucking main yasuo LOL.

whatever point you were hoping to make with that is completely invalid in this thread.

MiD EnforcerJun 24, 20181 votes

To be fair tho, the only Yasuo I'm scare of is the Yasuo on my team that's gonna int the game. If you wanna play Yasuo effectively you gotta one trick him more than anyone else. Do people even play the champ before complain? -_-
