Poll: What should be done about yasuo
or any other ideas
or any other ideas
There is no leave as is button, Yasuo is sitting at like a 49% winrate in plat ( where this game is balanced around).
also friendly PSA
double crit passive is what keep tank yasuo from being a thank again shield passive is because he has the worst base stats of any slayer so when his shield is down he is literally cannon fodder
His passives are the main things that need work. Double crit gives him mongo damage and makes crit items way too cost effective, and his shield makes him borderline impossible for a lot of melees to trade with. The recent Q duration nerf pretty much fixed that ability in my books.
He doesn't need nerfs. He just needs some touching-up on a couple abilities.
His Q should no longer be an AoE circle after using his E (or at least no longer cause the launch). His E should go on its on-target cooldown after being used on a champion. These changes would mean he could no longer dive in, guarantee a launch with his E->Q, deals a bunch of damage, and then dive out without the possibility of retaliation. Of course, he would get compensated accordingly. Given this would affect his ability to harass and avoid harassment, I would probably buff the shield (and probably something else).
I would also make his W work from only one direction. Again, he would get compensated accordingly.
