I won't judge you for who you ban.

Marshbouy··47 votes·2,557 views

I don't think a "bronze" ban exists. Ban who you personally dislike playing against, I don't care as long as it isn't my champion or obviously a troll ban.

I will judge you though. I will judge you for -refusing to learn how to play against the champion. -becoming toxic if someone doesn't ban them for you. -instantly tilting when fighting them in game

and those reasons are why i hate this board permabanning yasuo "i will ban yasuo instead of learning how to play against him"

because the thing they don't know is that if they do learn how to play against him they won't hate him anymore PLOT TWIST KAAAPA!

oh and add to your list "i ban yasuo because i don't want my mate to pick him"

Kinda hard to learn how to play against the champ that does like 65% of his dmg with auto attacks and another 30% with basically undodgable Qs and has no big weaknesses or weak points in the game lel

undodgable Qs

0:54 https://youtu.be/Vc_9mRdDFqg?t=54

if you think it's undodgeable you should watch yasuo 1v1 between yassuo and arkadata

and quite putting lel in your posts, it won't make it less or more legit, just humiliate you more when you're wrong yasuo is trash past lvl 2

Penns8 votes

You dont have like 500 move speed on other champs tho and you didnt have to fight him while dodging them. I 1v1 a friend on Yasuo quite a lot and yeah its possible, but only really early where it doesnt have 1.33 - 1.5s cd and is slower. And only if you predict it, not dodge it.

then at least use this amount of time to dodge yasuo Q don't say yasuo Q is undodgeable, if i can do it, if yassuo is able to do it, why can't you do it?

that's what called learning how to play against yasuo

Penns4 votes

Because its just not realistic to "dodge" his Q when its fast af and has 1.33 cooldown while trying to fight him.

They almost never dodged Qs outside of level 3 fights. Sure its always possible to predict them, but its not realistic. And once he gets item 3022 .. yeah ure not doding anything anymore lol.

Who is Taliyah9 votes

Not trying to roast you, but that might be a reason that rubick is master and has a smurf in diamond, while you don't.

Of course with a skillshot as fast as yasou's Q, it's really hard to dodge, but there is also this skill you can teach yourself which is called predictions.

Every player plays this game different. Every player has his/her own playstyle on a champion. But every player has to use the same skillshots on a champion, this is where you learn how to predict. Because it comes down on how you move and you can't bend the way skillshots fly. There is only just a small chance to hit a spell and that is through predictions. The same applies to dodging, there is only just a small chance to dodge and that is prediction (unless you're helly fast).

Not saying rubick was definitely right there, because he played one of the fastest, if not the fastest champion in the game, but he had better chances, because of his experience in past games which he learned from.

Penns3 votes

There might be a reason, but I doubt its because he plays better against Yasuo lol.

Like I said, its possible but not realistic. Say you play Kled or something top and you have like 360 move speed, are u really gonna try to dance around the Yasuo to have a chance at dodging his Q?

KONO RUBICK DA5 votes

i don't know about kled

i don't know if you can dodge it with every champion however

0:58https://youtu.be/utzyXjmura8?t=58

you can definitly do it on a lot of champions if you have experience to fight against yasuo but if you continue to ban yasuo non-stop you won't learn how to do it

do you prefer yasuo Q to be point and click? might make it point and click if according to you it's impossible to dodge it

it's definitly possible everytime? there is no way i can know it, but it's possible which means the counterplay is real

Penns1 votes

Yeah this was a level 3 fight like I said, its possible and worth trying there (its not even worth trying to dodge it when he throws them out every 1.5 seconds later).

If youre just talking about early lane, its possible with most champs, but once he gets more attack speed not so much anymore.

And btw I dont even ban Yasuo ever.. Unless Zac Lulu (idk how much her nerf did tho) LeeSin Lucian Caitlyn Twitch Fiora Kled Ivern Kassadin Ahri Riven and Janna Soraka Darius if I want to play an assassin are already banned xd

Im just saying he is a god tier top laner atm even in high elo and in korea so banning him isnt really bad. I mean he is certainly way stronger than Fizz rn and he is still perma banned for some reason lel

KONO RUBICK DA4 votes

yeah he's a god tier toplaner

after fiora kled and renekton which means he isn't ban worthy

yas is being nerfed but if you ban him over fiora and other broken shit like kass ivern cait zac vlad, then you should reconsider the game

how the fuck do you play against vlad? why people are baning yas instead of vlad? that's a mistery

Right, I stood still and let Jax auto me? Nope, ulted before he landed stun got a empowered Q off, didn't matter. Its not like I suddenly started playing different, Jax simply tanked all I dished out and dealt such a insane amount of damage that I had to B or die instantly.

Q down Jax easy, lol. What do you think I tried, went in for a Q Jax all ins me. I either die or get away with about 10% health. So explain to me how I fucked up, I'd love to know.

Are saying Yasuo has no weakness ???

Penns1 votes

Thinking about what could be a weakness of him... yes, pretty much. He is melee but he has enough tools to play against ranged champs (and he is mostly a top laner at this point anyway). He shits on most tanks but bursting him isnt an option either since PD, defensive boots, GA, Frozen Mallet, Maw, BT, maybe DD and Trinity + Steraks exist.

I guess you could call having no hard escape a weakness but.. eh.

Yeah just stop with the "ban Yasuo because you don't know how to play vs him" train.

He's banned for the same reasons anyone else is.

You either hate playing against/with them, they're FOTM, or they're bad matchups.

It's as simple as that.

A lot of people hate playing with/against him, so what does that mean?

He needs changes.

No? Just because a champion isn't liked doesn't mean he needs to be changed. Like I get people dislike Yasuo but that's probably the worst reason I've ever heard to change a champion.

Troll for Trump4 votes

No, that is THE exact reason why champs are changed.

It's not as blunt as "most people don't like X"

What's important is the why,

It's why Hec is being considered for a rework. Same with Yas.

KONO RUBICK DA7 votes

Hec isn't considered for a rework because he's unfun it's because he offers no niche while being a generalist along with almost all divers

beside, you can downvote everyone it doesn't change the truth

If people learned how to play against yasuo they wouldn't hate him anymore but since they don't want to bother they ban him

then "riot look yasuo is banned, spoil us and change yasuo" no son, that doesn't work like this

the game doesn't adapt to you, YOU adapt to the game

Troll for Trump2 votes

I never said they were changed because they were unfun. People hated playing against and/or with him. That doesn't mean unfun. People have different reasons for not liking him. Some people may not even hate him, and like him. I'm one of the latter. However, most people seem to hate him in some way, and that is why he is getting changes.

I think some people don't like how he oneshots squishies? Or how he either dominates metas or falls flat. Different reasons as to why they hate playing with/against him.

But again, there are enough dissenters to warrant some changes to him.

I don't think he needs a rework, but most people think he needs changes, and Riot has decided that a rework may be the best course of action to bring about those changes.

beside, you can downvote everyone it doesn't change the truth

I didn't downvote. I thought you were one of the people that said you didn't care about upvotes/downvotes?

then "riot look yasuo is banned, spoil us and change yasuo" no son, that doesn't work like this

Again, that is a very broad generalization. It's the exact same as the people that circlejerk about Yas; you are circlejerking about people that hate yas. They don't all not know how to play against him.

Just don't circlejerk.

the game doesn't adapt to you, YOU adapt to the game

No, it's a combination of both. Otherwise, there'd be no changes.

In DoTA, it leans a lot more on the player adapting to the game than visa-versa, but it still does happen occasionally. League, with all the frequent patches, has more of the game adapting to the players than DOTA

Troll for Trump2 votes

Because people hate yasuo. People hate hecarim. They hate them for different reasons.

They still hate them both, all the same, just for different reasons. The hate is the reason they're being/will be changed.

fine i'm circlejerking i admit it but what i say is not wrong, if they knew how to make yasuo useless they wouldn't hate him

Well it is wrong, because that's not what "They" are arguing for. "They" don't want to make him useless. That isn't the truth, that's just circlejerk. You're grouping all of them up into that argument.

It'd be like me grouping you with people that want Yasuo to have triple crit chance, or some other ludicrous, extremist, polar argument.

If Yas was useless, they'd start asking for buffs, and wouldn't complain about him for no reason. However, he isn't.

They don't want Yas to be useless, they want him to be changed. Big difference.

dota is a shit game when it comes to casuality, counterplay is minor against melee carries except 'shut down them in early game'

Exactly. Because the game never adapts to the player, and generally expects the player to adapt to the game, it really hurts the casual playerbase. League wants more casual players, and thus has the game adapt to the players more than DoTA.

in league, champions have visibl counterplay just like yasuo, what else do you want they offered you a way to deal with yasuo?

To not have a champ that can cover up weaknesses with player skill more than other champs. That's pretty much true for all things of high skillcap

if yasuo had no weaknesses he would have got 100% win rate already yasuo is not immortal, yasuo's weaknesses is that he deals no damage before ult as he needs armor pen and his ult needs a knock up, and his knock up is not certain

additionally, his mobility is limited to a 400 range 10-6 sec dash that can be stopped by ccs unlike other dashes, until he has a lot of minions

windwall has a long cd

sounds like a lot of weaknesses to me

Troll for Trump1 votes

Yasuo does not cover his weaknesses 100%. What he does is cover it more so than other champs.

Yasuo is not the only one to do this. A lot of other champs cover their weaknesses more than Yasuo, through other means.

The way Yasuo covers his weaknesses is with skill. Graves or Lucian, for example, cover their weaknesses with itemization.

if yasuo had no weaknesses he would have got 100% win rate already yasuo is not immortal, yasuo's weaknesses is that he deals no damage before ult as he needs armor pen and his ult needs a knock up, and his knock up is not certain

additionally, his mobility is limited to a 400 range 10-6 sec dash that can be stopped by ccs unlike other dashes, until he has a lot of minions

windwall has a long cd

First of all, that's...4 weaknesses? Not a lot.

No he does a lot of dmg even without ult, excluding the fact that his ult has a relatively short cooldown. His lvl 2 is one of the strongest in game. He does not need armor pen early game. Lategame, he becomes more drain tank and less bursty, and, isn't as polar as he is early. This is an itemization based cover-up

his ult needs a knock up, and his knock up is not certain

This is a weakness that's based on skill, basically. Yas, however, gets the initiative with his E+q. If he only did his third Q, it would be 100% a skillmatchup. That is not the case, and, if it were, Yas would be bad.

additionally, his mobility is limited to a 400 range 10-6 sec dash that can be stopped by ccs unlike other dashes, until he has a lot of minions

How many top laners even have dashes at all. The ability for a top laner to even have mobility gives them much more outplay potential, rewarding them for skill more than immobile top laners. By having that dash, Yas has more windows to trade, engage, or escape than a immobile top laner.

Yas will dash around, while traditional top laners will be brick walls. How the dash is used is entirely based on the player, and is a skill-based weakness.

You will get the cocky Yasuos that you will destroy. You will get the god Yasuos that you will never be able to hit with your abilities no matter how hard you try, because of the gap in skill ceiling between your champ and Yasuo.

windwall has a long cd

It's based on how the player uses it. If the player misuses it by using too frequently, that's up to the player.

Windwall isn't as useful in top lane vs mid lane. That's a weakness for Yasuo.

There are many other weaknesses for Yasuo that weren't mentioned here though.

Yes, so he needs changes to make it more fun for lower elos. It's just difficult to find a way to tone him down for lower elos without impacting him at higher elos. If you hate playing with something, it will get changes. That is how the community and RIot interact.

That doesn't mean only nerfs; it can be with buffs or reverts too.

Kog'maw rework: Everyone hated it? Revert. Same with Malz (not full revert) Cait: Everyone hates her zoning? Riot makes her clunkyish Sated Devourer: Everyone hated it? Removed

Changes in the game are caused by dissent in the community. If the community was content with everything in the game, there would be no change.

All cry baby can downvote Metal and keep crying, or start to use their brain and learn to play against Yasuo.

Really unecessary ad hominem that proves my point. A lot of people complain about" nerf yas" "nerf lee" "nerf riven" circlejerk, when those people are doing the same thing.

Yeah, and whenever a pick has a high pickrate and winrate, people often start complaining, yes?

Low pickrate high winrate champs aren't complained about. The champ is strong, but no one really has issues because it's counterbalanced by low pickrate; you wouldn't nerf Karthus because of Karthus top having had the highest winrate at somepoint, for instance. Nor would you nerf Fiddlesticks because of Fiddle mid having high winrate + low pickrate.
