Why doesn't Poppy's W Block Yasuo's Ult?

Seems like a flagrant disregard for an ability that blocks almost everything else.

It's a blink, not a dash.

Poppy's W has never stopped blinks (which is why Ezreal can E out of it)

(why this said E earlier I will never know, but you got the point)

Yes but Ez has a visible blink to his ability. I feel like they called Yas's ult a blink to give him more freeloading capabilities.

They called Yasuo's ult a blink cz....it literally blinks to an enemy.

If you look closely, Yasuo ult is a really quick dash, and not a blink, you can see him "dashing" towards the enemy, and not "teleporting" (anyway why the fuck would he be teleporting ?)

The tooltip.

Literally starts with 'Blinks to an Airborne enemy champion'

though.

Yeah, right but it doesn't though.

Look, man. I'm trying to give us some breathing room down in the bronze pits before this Yas buff goes through. Cool out with this technocratic mumbo jumbo.

Ah, it's a bait thread. Cool.

It's not, I was trying to lighten the mood. My point is, I guess I'm fine buffing this guy if we give people some reasonable counter play options.

Similarly, the animation for kat's E makes it look like a dash, but it's also a blink. And Zed's ult.

Certainlyt had already thought of that, so Yasuo actually teleports when using his R. He corrects the weaknesses of his champions but leaves the animation intact and then his mains tell you "it's easy to play against him", "counterplay". https://thumbs.gfycat.com/WickedSarcasticGharial-max-1mb.gif
