The crit changes will hurt melee users

feintfiend··2 votes·961 views

Yasuo and Tryndamere are getting a huge indirect nerf with the item 3046 rework. Yasuo really needs the damage reduction so he can duel bruisers and fighters without popping like a balloon if he enters melee range. Tryndamere heavily relies on the movement speed so he can't be kited as easily, yet he still gets kited pretty hard right now. How about making item 3087 a copy of current item 3046 so they can just buy that item? Or make a new crit item that's a copy of current item 3046 .

Yasuo was originally intended to be an AD mid laner, not a top laner. He shouldn't be viable in top lane.

This change is good. He shouldn't be able to shit on mages and duel bruisers/fighters with the same build.

Yasuo was intended to be a melee ADC, but that's beside the point. What's wrong with champions being viable in multiple roles? A majority of champs in the game can be flexed.

Uhh no, he wasn't. He was 100% intended to be an AD mid laner. He's literally played exclusively mid lane in his spotlight. Yasuo wasn't a viable ADC until this season. You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkM20LgOdKQ

Every mid laner that gets played in top lane gets adjusted to push them out of top lane. Yasuo should not be an exception. A single item changing a kit that completely shits on mages into a kit that also shits on bruisers, while also making him shit on mages even harder, is not healthy.

He literally calls him a melee ADC in that video. Also ADC != Bottom When a midlaner is played top 99% of the time its a ranged champ bullying melees out of the lane, meanwhile yasuo is a melee that can very much lose all ins to tons of top laners item 3046 doesn't shit on mages/bruisers, I've never once heard this item be called OP and its never seemed OP to me. It just gives melees something to work with since they don't have a range advantage.

Uhh, no, it doesn't. You can literally open the transcripts of the video and search for the term 'carry.'

This thread is done, accept that you'll need to actually try to get good and play Yasuo in mid lane, as intended.

The logic is that he's a melee champ that_ builds like an ADC_ and effectively functions similarly to one in the mid lane. It's a mixture of both. You're both right.

Have you seen what they are doing to Irelia for being played in mid?

They addressed Yasuo/Tryn specifically when they made the post about the crit changes. They know it affects them and they don't think it's a problem.
