complete list of all Yasuo baby mechanics

Hibeki··7 votes·1,919 views

Compiling a list of all hand holding mechanics yasuo has which has no reason to have them.

  1. Can cast W and Q in the same frame, only champ in the game who can cast multiple abilities simultaneously.

  2. Ult places you out of turret range automatically if possible

  3. Shield starts from his body and moves outwards, blocks spells in all directions for the first few frames, despite the ability description and animation yasuo makes showing he slashes the ground and it comes up from there

  4. Can cast Q while in ult before you can make any actions

  5. Ult can be cast in the stun part of a knockup ability (the microstun after youve landed)

  6. damage amp on dashes for no reason

  7. Ult refreshes shield for no reason

  8. Ult gives armor penetration for targets not in the ult, for no reason

  9. Q cannot be Jax dodged or Teemo blinded

  10. Q does not count as an auto attack for minion aggro despite proccing on hit effects

Did I miss any? Can we stop pretending any of these are okay?

only champ in the game who can cast multiple abilities simultaneously.

earned my downvote

as a lucian main lucian can use all his spells at the same time as long as you don't start with Q he can cast W+Q at the same time E+W at the same time he can even use W and Q during the double hit animation

Its not the same time, theres a really quick cast time that allows for multiple abilities AS DESIGNED.

Ok, but when you say "for no reason", you're misinformed

The ult shred, used to be 100, not 50 ----- Pen yas isn't a thing, and he's no Jax or Aatrox or Fiora

animation cancels exist in variety of champs

q doesn't give you minion aggro IF you hit the enemy through a minion. If you q off the side and they're alone, they'll fight you

E used to be maxed first, now its second because it was hit with nerf hammers

Without that shield, he'd feed more than all the memes have ever implied before

If Yas goes in off of his own knock up, alone into the enemies, chances are he's dead before his allies can react.

His mobility and dmg being through minions means he often moves faster than his allies making misstepping into the enemy easier, he tends to take farm from allies, and then he's dead before the allies catch up.

Yas may want to fight teemo, but usually yas doesn't want to fight jax despite his Q

He's squishy, he builds ADC items (which are HELLA expensive now) and he is one of the EASIEST laners to gank when over extended.

There are champs with higher dmg and win rates

You're misinformed about most of these. JS

He has 2 passives while some champions nearly have none. (Ahri Heimerdinger Lissandra Nunu Shyvana MonkeyKing )

Heimers new passive is really good, nunus is good for jungling.

REAL list of yasuo baby mechanics:

  • Flow: a get out of being melee free card that has no cost, requires no imput and is fueled by moving.... on one of the most mobile champs in the game.

  • Ultimae that keeps him out of tower range for no reason.

  • Ultimate can be cast off of any displacement, not just knockk ups.

  • Ultimate can be cast off of aliied knockups to begin with.

  • Windwall blocks things that clearly go under or above it.

  • Windwall comes out of his body allowing him to block things he shouldnt, even when aiming the thing in the wrong direction.

#Thats it.

I hate the champ but lets create real dialog here.

My only issues :

  1. Q cannot be Jax dodged or Teemo blinded

  2. Ult can be cast in the stun part of a knockup ability (the microstun after youve landed) (ever seen him using ult after getting "knocked up" by Trundle pillar ?)

  3. Q does not count as an auto attack for minion aggro despite proccing on hit effects

  4. Ult places you out of turret range automatically if possible

I'd also add that he has 2 passive, no ressource management, and no cooldown on his main abilities. I'm ok for a champion design being "different" and "flashy) (Katarina for instance, low cd but requires you to achieve something in order to have this low cd), but here, this champion doesn't belong in a pvp game

Q being able to hit teemo and jax fits his identity pretty well. Considering it doesn't automatically win the trade AND has a cd its fine. Its unique and non broken.

Him ulting at the end of knock up chains is fine, in fact waiting for the knock up to finish its fixed time is the best way to chain cc ANY knock up in the game.

The ult out of tower range makes sense, because it would be annoying to press R and magically be the other side of the enemy so far under tower you're for sure dead.

He DOES require something for cd, atk spd. atk spd isn't dmg, or health. Not to mention he needs the crit, and those items cost quite a bit now.

The passives are the only reason he's not melee old urgot

HAHAHAHAAHA you think Kat is fine but Yas isn't??? That's silly. What about every champion regardless of design with higher dmg and win rates?? XD

The heck is this even suppposed to mean?

Beffore level 5 maybe. Since the thongs cD scales with CDR, rank and attack speed. Thing stops having a CD very fast into the game. Who are you fronting?

certainlyT champ OMEGALUL

Too bad I got the short end of the stick and prefer to play Kalista who I'd give up her entire ULTIMATE just so she was not considered a shitpick

1 is incorrect from the top of my head alone Caitlyn can E and immediately W to cancel the cast time (there are others but that’s what immediately came to mind)

2 yeah that’s kind of dumb

3 I may need to test myself but if it’s true then that’s REALLY dumb

4 that’s not even bad, that’s just queuing your abilities. Similar to Alistar combo

5 I feel like that’s fair believe it or not. It’s the champions fault for being knocked up in the first place

6 it’s literally 50% bonus damage on his least damaging ability I think this one is just whining

7 it’s an ultimate ability that makes him go in. The shield refreshing makes sense.

8 skirmishes need a way to continue fighting after taking out the desired champ. (Same as someone like Fiora Ult healing her) What you’re expecting is an assassin.

9 ok if that’s true that’s bullshit

10 since it’s AOE and not single target, I’ll allow it.
