as the 7th best yasuo in North America, i think yasuo needs buffs.

yasuo is in the worwst state he has even been. with one of his lowest winrates to date, he simplh can't survive in the game. even the supports can one shot him if his passive is down. the issue is simple.

there is too much power on the sheild.

what needs to be done is to give reduce yasuo's sheild strength and then increase all other parts of his defensive kit like lowering w cd and increasing width, increasing hp/5, increasing base hp, decreasing crit reduccition.

but that's not the only issue. His abilities are too clunky.

making plays is nearly impossible. i have not seen a good yasuo montage in the last 2 months because yasuo is just too clunky to pull off smooth plays. I propose that his q be cast while moving and that his e be cancelable by another e. this will really give him the identity of "wind" because of a smooth unpredictability and rough angle movement during outplays.

thank you

Your aren't even in the top 100 on this list... http://www.leagueofgraphs.com/rankings/summoners/yasuo/na

You are actually ranked as the 197th best Yasuo player NA. https://i.gyazo.com/60c39bc0c800ca843cccfa4480fffd48.png

And it doesn't get any better if you look at all regions....

As someone who mains an immobile melee champion and constantly watches mobility and CC for kiting go up and up there's only one thing I can tell you; get in line.

Congrats, you've just proved that Yasuo isn't weak, and therefore, buffs are highly unneeded.

Add on facts:

Mid Yasuo has a winrate of 48.53% & playrate of 11.14%. Top Yasuo has a winrate of 50.3% & playrate of 9.85%.

Conclusion: Yasuo is already in either a fine or OP state.

I don't think anyone wants to see Yasuo strong again. His design is, by consensus, 'cancer'. Everything about him, his absurd mobility, damage, CC, windwall, engage, and shields all make him very frustrating to play against.

Could he use a soft power shift? Maybe. But buffs? Hell no. He's pulling over a 49% winrate with a 10% play rate in both mid and top. That winrate for that popularity is very fair.

And about his 'clunkiness', I don't remember them ever making him clunky. If he was smooth 6 months ago, he's still smooth now. I still see Yasuos make plays, and seeing these plays is more satisfying when you know they're actual plays and not just him killing someone with three hits.

He's still too difficult to play against, snowballs quickly and has good mobility. Most "good" Yasuo are currently running bruiser-ish builds with item 3046 item 3812

For sustain people use lifesteal quints & masteries + doran you start with a good 10% + lifesteal at lvl 1.

Tbh checking your op.gg makes me think you're doing it wrong.

noone grabs death dance and everyone goes attspd quints to cap q fast

"worwst " say wat. Stopped reading when I saw that.

The only things that yasuo needs right now are bug fixes. It's really annoying to almost have killed someone after I ult but since there's a bug where your Q will do no damage and you can't auto attack they get away with miniscule amounts of HP. There are countless posts on reddit and boards that go into detail on most or all his bugs.

Also "there is too much power on the shield"

this is total bs and one of the weakest parts of his kit tbh.
