I love how everyones complaining about yasuo

{quoted}

For someone who derided someone else for weak arguments, sometimes yours are pretty piss-weak and very transparent...

You sound like the guy summed up by saying "Statistics matter, until they're no longer convenient for my purposes."

I don't think you understood what he was saying... He said that those three champs who were prevalent in worlds despite having a moderate to lower than expected win rate % so Yasuo's lower win rate doesn't actually act as real evidence, especially after a major patch change where all win rates don't mean all that much for a period except in extreme trends (generally high values, not low).

Slamurai hasn't provided a single sound argument, yet, and Dominick hasn't expanded on his since the initial post, only deflated Slamurai's failed attempts.

His passive is popped with an auto. Once it's popped and he has no windwall he can't really dash and trade with you unless you're low because it's too dangerous and you would end up winning the trade most times.

So he has to play like an immobile melee hypercarry now? The horror.

If Yasuo clears the wave (pushes) then that's good for you since "Yasuo counters you." Also opens him up for ganks. No yasuo will push the wave just because his passive is down (unless they're bad, in this case it's free win anyways)

What are wards, and how will you possibly turret farm as a mage. Ap yi used to do exactly this and it was the most frustrating thing for a projectile mage.

And his windwall won't do shit in a gank unless it's like a nidale with no CC. If you know how to bait him then all your jungler has to do is walk into the lane and Yasuo is dead

Blocking all ranged cc is now useless.

Most times Yasuo isn't picked last because rarely does last pick get mid. And as I said in previous posts, normals are for practice, so you should be happy to get challenged in them. If you for some reason take them seriously, the Yasuo's in normals usually are good (using norms for practice) and are a free win anyways.

Well yes, because this game actually doesn't rely on counterpicking that much, so mid can just pick whatever and roll with it. Unless you're playing with good players, who realize that counterpicks can determine the outcome. Good yasuos are never free wins, because they'll use their 10 tools to cheese you at every opportunity. You probably play with so many poor yasuo players that you think being able to use his skills as well as the mage is being good.

Bad time doesn't mean invalidate/wreck at all times. Squishy fighters tend to actually outscale or outshine renekton at some point. Yasuo is a hypercarry.

Practicing against bad players is like trying to study calculus by practising addition and pretending it's helping.

Again, picking the right champ is only valid "counterplay" if you can pick last 100% of the time or else you have to predict a yasuo and hope you yourself don't get counter picked.

I've never even said he's op, just that your arguments were mostly wrong in practice.

Protip: winrates don't mean shite alone. I could pull out challenger winrates (which range from 0-100) but it wouldn't prove anything. I assume you realize sample size is important, but that wouldn't help your argument would it :).

You could have a champ that's numerically better played by first time players against a champ that's worse, but played by pros, have the first timers get destroyed, then say since the better champ won less, it's not op.
