So... is this the direction that League is wanting to go?

Is Riot wanting the game to go in the direction of the playstyle of champs like LeeSin Zed Kalista and Yasuo ?

I understand they're not all new champs but that playstyle seems to be the one that is encouraged most. Highly mobile and tons of damage without paying for it in hardly any way.

Cuz if that's the direction that Riot is taking this game I think it's time for me to be done here. I've been frustrated in more games in the last year and enjoyed league less than in the previous several years playing and I think I can only await more of the same unless I pick up some Riot Favorites and sell my soul.

I would like to point out that Yasuo is very weak currently

Oh yeah, i understand that. Completely good to point it out though.

It's the playstyle I'm talking about. Not just who's OP.

I didn't put VI in here either and I hate that hooker.

Also, not sure who downvoted ya but I upvoted to even it out. haha just cuz I hate yasuo's kit and design doesn't make you WRONG in saying he's not strong now.

I see what you mean by dashes/blinks/mobility. It terms of who is viable Yasuo is out of question :P

And just having TOO MANY options in fights, all his stuff in his kit had to be super toned down cuz there's too much there lol

True he really just auto attacks and Q's lol. Just like Zed and Lee. Too many options o.O

His early game defiantly is but if that little S@#$ makes it to late game with decent CS.............

His late doesn't work well because his early doesn't either. He can't really hyper-carry - and hes too squishy to fight backline

I disagree, I've had many games where he gets out of control, they normally sit in the back of the team, wait for us to commit to the fight before he launches his tornado and ult 2-3 of us landing a multi kill, then he dashes back and forth between the rest of us for the clean up. and I've seen his passive shield and wind wall save him so many times from that final kill skill shot you or your team tried to land on him. I would say he has a high skill cap, he isn't OP, but not the worst champion ether.

I honestly believe is just too easier to destroy a yasuo with Zed Ahri Malzahar Katarina

As far as the meta goes; total protection from projectiles and double crit still goes a really long way.

If the silly anti-snowball were removed yasuo would become a rengar level or riven level snowballer.

How can anyone who builds a Runan, Bt, BtoK, and as boots not think Kalista is overpowered, she is practically immortal with these.

theres tons of counter play to all of these champs

I find that my games are really entertaining and provide a fun challenge when i lane against these champions

il give you those they spam so many abilities that yas could never block or dodge them. A yas main would probably ask for a switch with top in those situations though. if that matchup were more favorable. I usually see him contest well againstAkali Brand Heimerdinger Lux Nidalee I think its just yas doesn't fit well with the current meta right now.
