Yasuo shield change makes sense

But the rest cannot fly to live. MR buffs? and more than double the MR per level? then when most 's feed their asses till late game they will be more durable to burst than before. Keep in mind the champion literally gets a small snowball going from static shiving 3 - 4 fucking waves of minions. Otherwise you have to strip offense power from his crit passive 80% from 90% sounds reasonable even 75% is ball park for me at least.

Also i think players take unyielding in the defensive tree so that scales the MR even more so the numbers will be even higher or should i say more effective than what PBE currently displays.

If you dont compensate its a buff for him no matter how you arrange the words and call them "changes".

Typical: "I don't want to transition Yasuo in his intended role, I want to nerf him".

"Way of the Wanderer (Passive) shield changed from 100-510 to 60-555"

That is literally the only change he needed so his "laning phase" isnt such a breeze in the park for most of his matchups , he was intended to be a top laner i recall?

The magic resist buffs make him more viable mid but not by much what it REALLY does is scale his late game bruiser builds he'll be able to throw in a few more autos before dying the magic resist scaling + unyeilding makes item 3156 on him much more effective for example. It buffs defensive item interactions as well not just "raw stats" that's being buffed here.

He's supposed to go mid. Weakening his shield makes him weaker to melee opponents, but then that makes him too weak to ranged (his intended class he's supposed to do well against), so they buff up how MR to compensate.
