Yasuo will most likely still be perma banned after his rework either way.

Because people just hate his name in general "Yasuo" They find it a Meme now and find it funny to ban him usually, that's just how it is sadly.

Most of my friends ban him saying "Better ban Yasuo!" and nothing more then that, I usually ask "Why ban him?" And they never say he's overloaded or broken/useless.

I really doubt Yasuo's small scale rework will do shit as people just don't care and will ban him either way probably.

I've played A LOT of games vsing a Yasuo as well as having him on my team and I barely had a toxic one, so I'm curious why people are saying "ALL Yasuo's are toxic!"

Sad to see a champion getting reworked over a Meme and people thinking he has no counter play when he is the champion I defeat the most in lane normally with how simple his kit is to me.

I'm actually curious why Riot doesn't do anything about people on YOUR team banning Yasuo from you, just because of a Meme. But whatever. Just wanted to get it off my chest, a shame Yasuo will be gutted and destroyed with his rework most likely just like Rengar over some people who refused to learn to play around him.

Edit: The fact people ban Yasuo from you and laugh about it & call him a abomination, I've noticed they are usually more toxic then Yasuo will ever be.

reworking a balanced champion in the first place is a mistake

they never did that before no champion who got reworked was an example of balance unlike yasuo who can be considered about how a melee carry should be unlike feast or famin carries like trynd who splitpush if ending up behind

yasuo is being reworked because of 50% ban rate meanwhile lulu and fiora rework? lulu has 50% ban rate since march 2017 to now and nothing was done

you seriously think that people like to play against lulu? against a no counterplay laning phase while getting outplayed in teamfight by her buffing her adc+protecting him with point and click buffs?

then think again you fool

Yasuo is not reworked for being a "meme" or being op. He is reworked because he is FRUSTRATING to play against. I can beat a yasuo because i know how, but i dont WANT TO face one, because just like facing teemo it will be a slog to get through in the first place.

THAT is why he is getting reworked and that has been said THOUSANDS of times on HUNDREDS of threads.

However, its easier to just blame "Low elo" isnt it? Its eaiser to straw man Riot AND the community, isnt it?

Fuck off.

he certainly has counterplay, but he's still frustrating to play against, especially if maining champs involving projectiles

So, why is Yasuo hated?

Lets go with which champions are "hated": Fizz Fiora Kassadin (pre rework) Katarina Leblanc LeeSin MasterYi Rengar Riven Shaco Vayne Yasuo Zed

What do they have in common? excessive amounts of mobility.

And Yasuo's mobility has 0.1 seconds cooldown. Everyone has an ability or two which are "unfun" like Yasuo's windwall. But Yasuo goes "over the top" by having hypermobility which is at the same levels of Nidalee or Kassadin in URF.......

Yes, I know he needs minions to dash around. But this doesn't solve the issue with 0.1s cd dashes. Most champions with multiple dashes on the same ability got a cooldown or an internal cooldown. Take Ahri or Akali for example, they both need to wait around 1 second in between dashes. Yasuo can dash though the entire minion wave in that second >.> And the likes of riven, despite having no big 'cd' on her Q and can literally Q dash 3 times in a row very quickly, she then needs to wait up for cooldown before using her Q again.

Yasuo doesn't, Yasuo has 0.1s cooldown on his dash. As long as there's shit nearby, he can use it. Its hard to even point and click spells on him for fucks's sake

the less I play with or against one the better, that's the reason for me why i ban him

I see people who are down voting me are the ones that aren't replying to the thread at all.

Don't blame you, guess you're not wanting to embarrass your self and say the same things as you always do.

I just recently had a guy tell me "When a Yasuo is picked on the enemy team you are forced to pick CC!!"

Question is.. When do you not want CC on your team? Katarina: You need CC. Zed: You need CC (even 1 second of your ADC being alive) helps in a fight.

You people, at least give a good educated reply.

i always felt that if they would throw his passive into his ult and make it scale with it (10%-25%-50% more crit) would make him easier to deal with while keeping his main type of damage
