terrible idea

Ok sure but whyJun 29, 20163 votes

The fact that Yasuo loses his hard-earned max flow the second Malzahar sneezes on the minion next to him makes it a not-so nice idea.

So "hard-earned"! He walked around in circles! LOL

This has to be a troll post, yasuo would never get to use his w when it matter.. EVER He basically would not have a W.

Maybe now it actually takes skill to use it?

There's a difference between 'skill' and 'can't.' The only way Yasuo would ever be able to use his W is if he whipped it out like a piece every time he saw Blitzcrank punch a minion in a different lane. That would make his W not unusable, but useless.

It´s not whenever he wants. Windwall is gated by a long cooldown and must be put down properly. Countless times i´ve seen a Yasuo put down his windwall a little too late and get mauled to bits due to a poor reaction time. If it were to be gated around his flow bar then champions like Kayle and Malzahar would make his day a living hell. Even more than they already do.

He already makes half the champions in LoL into living hell. Increase his skillcap is all Im asking for.

SithesisLordJun 29, 20161 votes

Because losing an entire ability simply by starting a trade is considered increasing skill cap.

He starts a trade against a skill shot reliant champion. That champion AAs him once and then combos him to death because he can´t use his windwall to block stuff.

Just giving you a result of the change you propose.

So he has to change his playstyle, and now he has counterplay.

I am not on the Yas OP train but lets be real with his wall, you don't need skill. I have seen it block projectiles that weren't even remotely touching it. The fact he can hide in it and be immune to range and the fact even if he has it go the same direction as a lane, not across one and still block a lot means his wall is little more than bait it then kill him move. If you fail, you will most likely die or he escapes, if you succeed, he dies everytime.

The problem with Yasuo is because he basically has 2 ults. Its hard to tinker with him without completely making him worthless or completely broken(Looking at you release Warlords) His wall is basically a 2nd ult which is also hard to tinker with since there really isnt any room to work with it, its either too strong or worthless.

Why downvotes?

Spicy RiceJun 29, 20164 votes

Because you are putting an impossible requirement for him to use his ability.

Ok sure but whyJun 29, 20161 votes

People downvote anything that implies change. I simply mentioned High Noon Jhin's fourth bullet to make a dramatic noise like the classic does and got -20 votes on it.

Yah people are dumb. Thanks for being respectful and bringing legit discussion.

Ok sure but whyJun 29, 20161 votes

Relating his W to this Flow doesn't sound bad in general. Your proposal was horrendous, but there's something there. Maybe his W could have half the cooldown, but the cooldown timer can only go down when he's at max Flow. That way, he couldn't manage to pull off two walls in one fight if he was tanky enough.

CaítlynJun 29, 20161 votes

Maybe reduce the shield strength or duration depending on his flow?

It needs to be destructible so it has counterplay.

BeatzBoyFTWJun 29, 20161 votes

Or learn to engage on him after he used his W? Like, did you literally do nothing after his Windwall went down & waited for a whole 20secs til his W is up?

Ok sure but whyJun 30, 20161 votes

I love how the votes are 7 to 7, but still has -16 votes.
