The boards: We shouldn't nerf sub 50% win rate champions because they're used in pro play

I think people want Yasuo reworked rather than nerfed.

They'll just hate whatever he's reworked into. Also he doesn't need a rework.

When it comes to Yasuo and other CertainlyT champs it kind of does.

Yasuo needs a PASSIVE rework. Other than that he is fine.

Has a little counterplay somewhere in there, but the whole shield + double crit + NO COST ON ABILITIES = broken. Plus that ult puts him outside tower range..

I am not defending Yasuo by any means, but he needs that reworked, not the champion in general.

Plus that ult puts him outside tower range..

Got killed by that yesterday, it was a 4v5 game and I was pushed under tower as Annie, he got his knockup because I wasn't caring and there he was, new shield and out of tower range, if he chooses to ult under tower, and it is a choice, he should take the punishment.

Here's the thing, he is still within his ults range, considering it affect all targets in an aoe.

The only reason it puts him outside, is because A. It locks him in the animation, and B. He could've been outside anyways.

I was just thinking about Yasuo because of this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cebFWOlx848 xd

Actually Yasuo has a 53% winrate in botlane

chipndip1Jul 27, 20182 votes

Very true, but his overall win rate is sub 50%.

And the reason why his bot lane win rate is so much higher? Because he needs help to make it through laning. After that he scales and carries. By himself he's significantly weaker.

Barely sub 50. He has a 49.1% win rate. That's perfectly healthy.

Unlike champions like Ornn, Sejuani and Shen, whose win rates were well below 50% and still saw nerfs.

...and that's fine? The point is that if this were some other champ, people would be crying that a sub 50% win rate champion's being nerfed because Riot only cares about the LCS. Since it's YASUO, the sentiment's reversed.

Do not think i ever said sub 50% champions shouldn't be nerfed and i frequent here. In fact i main Zoe and think she should be nerf and she is sub 50%.
