Better get started on that Yasuo rework Riot.

Because he'll never see the rift again the moment you implement 10 bans. Public opinion against him is simply too strong to let him see play no matter how much you nerf him.

"public opinion"= the community his kit is overloaded and busted.

The funny part is, he's basically the Fizz of MADC's, without his E, Fizz would be absolute GARBAGE and would never survive laning phase against anything that outranges him (so, 90% of the mid lane roster).

If Yasuo's kit wasn't as crazy as it was, he wouldn't be able to function as a melee carry due to being squishy, his E exists to help him negate kiting, his shield helps him survive burst, and his wind wall lets him stop ranged harass.

Is it overloaded as hell? Yup, but you kind of have to be overloaded in SOME way to be a melee carry; Fiora has a dash that resets quickly, can block ANYTHING in the game, and has % max health true damage to ensure she kills her targets quickly when building damage.

His E isn't particularly good at helping him avoid kiting. It's very good at helping him close the gap though. Once he actually reaches the enemy, he tends to struggle mightily with being kited unless he has item 3046 item 3022 . It's not a coincidence that Yasuo builds those items now.

There's still enough boosted monkeys to keep him permabanned in higher elos, unfortunately.

Then why does he currently have a 49% ban rate in Platinum+?

Yeah, I can't wait to have both people on my team and the enemy team banning him, even if he's not particularly strong. Thanks Riot.
