Easy fix to the yasuo problem.

The thigh guy··1 votes·1,174 views

Yeah I know I’m going to get double the downvotes from the yasuo fanboys and the ranged champion hate boner.

But can we just make infinity edge ranged only? It effects 2 melee champions a lot and one a little bit. Trynd who lets be real, just needs a rework, yasuo, which is actual cancer right now and is overdue for the nerf bat and master yi, in under half his games, and in those half games is doing more true damage than anything else.

It fixes this yasuo problem. He has in all role, platinum+ all servers a 51.5% winrate, and a 87.4% pick or ban rate. In 87.4% of games he is either picked or banned. Now he is a “high skill” champion with a high appearance rate, and a positive winrate.

If this was leesin, azir, ryze, gangplank, Elise or any other high skill, high intensity champion, everyone would be losing their shit. So why is it okay for only yasuo?

item 3031 item 3147 item 3087 Thresh is my jam. Honestly wish he was a solo laner or Pyke-esque Kill Support.

I mean. I can’t go off meta and build hydra Ashe, or steriks kogmaw. Soooooooo?

The difference being hydra and steraks have passives built specifically for bruisers, juggernauts and tanks. IE, on the other hand, is just ad and crit, with a passive that can apply to anyone who wants to build crit.

Tiamat passive could be useful on any adc without waveclear.

Also, I love how all bruiser players argue that steriks was made for their role and only their role, yet also preach that all other items should be available to them And that riot doesn’t makes items for other classes.

Just making Infinity Edge melee only does not solve the major problems inherent in Yasuo's kit itself.

Merely claiming that making Infinity Edge melee only will allegedly be "an easy fix to the Yasuo problem", doesn't actually mean it's "an easy fix to the Yasuo problem".

“Sigh” I said making infinity edge a ranged only time.

It fixes the problem because now he actually has a price to pay for getting 2000 gold in free stats.

Now he gets 100% crit but doesn’t also get the full 200% damage from them, like his kit is suppose to.

I'm sure you knew what I meant.

Or, you know, we could just remove that "double crit chance" passive to begin with, so other melee crit users don't have to suffer?

I mean. That works too. But I was trying to keep with the original design of the champion. This litteraly causes no direct changes to him. And like I said, it realistically hits 2 other champions, tryndamere, who needs a rework and does more than enough damage without it, and master yi, who has 3 other builds he can use.
