Why can't Lissandra or Wukong have even 1 decent passive when Yasuo is allowed to have 2 OP ones?

"Oh no but Lissandra gets free mana in lane" more like it's an excuse to make her mana costs ridiculously high, it actually works against her. For being able to cast 1 mana free ability in lane every 18 seconds your rank 1 Q costs as much mana as a rank 5 Ahri Q while dealing 1/4 of the damage assuming the orb hits 2 times.

Wukong passive? Please don't make me laugh I'm sure must Wukong players forgot they even have a passive since gargoyle stoneplate exists.

Meanwhile Riot's golden child Yasuo is allowed to have resourceless shielding with 100 base shield at level 1 and double crit chance.

Well, those same two "OP passives" happen to have negatives. Double CRIT being Yasuo is forced to buy IE and PD if he wants to not lose a shit load of gold efficiency, AND his other builds got nerfed so you don't have much of a diverse set of options. It also limits the player to just play crit, NO AP build, no bruiser build (thank god), and no tank build (thank god again). Double crit also doesn't really have the strong part of it come in effect until you get 100% crit anyway.

His passive shield IS a great passive, but it is also a horrible shield. It can be taken down with 1 damage so you don't need to do anything other than auto or buy sunfire cape (if you are a jugg or tank). Even Ludens will work, ANYTHING will destroy it. It's also up each wave that comes into the middle of the lane, so that little intermission in minion brawls is an easy time to start knocking it down. 100 base shield doesn't mean anything, other than being able to block people who think they can hit straight through a shield with any spell with the most damage. Easy to break with any damage, and puts Yasuo at his squishiest (if wind wall is down).

Wukong's 40 armor and MR just for diving into the enemy team isn't actually all the bad, all things considered. Have you tried buying stoneplate and sudden;y gaining 80 armor and MR passively? That shit is hilarious

It is bad for the lane phase or 1v1 fights in general. he only gets 8 armor and MR in those situations and whats more, the whole enemy team needs to be there to get that bonus, so if its a 3v3 he's only getting 24 of each while still taking the same amount of damage from the champs who are there, which obviously is less but depending on who's in said 3v3 may not be much less. Now I'm not saying that he should be good for both teamfights and 1v1 situations, but I AM saying as a Diver, I'd prefer him to lose some of that teamfight power to get some more power for the lane phase. He's a lot more teamfight oriented then most, if not all other Divers and it would be nice if he could be updated in a way that tones that back for some early game power.
