and some of the ult range if im correct yasuo sometimes is unable to follow up on his own knockups not to mention that his team snergy combo is realy hard to pull of in actual match

but yeah ... i consider it to be better to emphasize yasuo as a meele adc instead of a toxic assasin

He won't have good damage, if they remove his crit passive. They will have to buff the ad ratios to his abilities.

if they remove it... while op suggests nerfing it

the created lack of damage as you say would be compensated by the rest of his kit he would die as an assasin but live long and good as the meele adc with good utility

I agree that him having two passives is extremely OP, but he doesn't need any buffing at all. He can still carry games quite well.

what op implies is not to buff him

but to rewert the nerfs and nerf the double crit instead of the rest

to push him into diferent direction

I would rather have them delete the shield and keep the double crit. He is an assassin after all. He just needs to be squishier so there is some risk when he all ins.

He is an assassin after all.

id like to make a note here yasuo was never intended to be an assasin, its riot's ballance (keeping the owerpowered sustained/burst damage at the cost of the rest of his kit) that made him only viable as an assasin, since riot gutted any chance to play him diferently (you have damage but you dont have survivability ... your only option is to assasinate)

so to summarize ... you cant just call yasuo an assasin, because its the ballance of his kit that decides what he is (his kit is versatile, so you can nerf one playstyle and enforce the other in his case, which doesnt work with other champions this much)

i agree with op because i would enjoy yasuo more as ameele adc than an assasin, becuase when he is an assasin he creates a giant wall of toxicity around himself, and i think that making him a carry would reduce this toxicity, it wouldnt solve all the problems, but the gameplay would be healthier and probably better ballanced for both sides

I totally agree that he should not be an assassin but a fighter. His kit has some great defensive abilities. I think Riot should nerf the damage some (early game only with items being strong on him) and increase his tankyness. That way he can still carry but isn't so toxic.

But I'm pretty sure the guys at Riot want him to be an assassin.

oh that was exactly what i looked for to argument why he isnt an assasin but a fighter/meele carry

he relies on basic defense more than on running away

But I'm pretty sure the guys at Riot want him to be an assassin.

from what i know its not like that people got to play him and started calling him an assasin just becuase he has good damage, so riot thinks that community actualy considers yasuo to be one

He is actually listed as an assassin on the LoL website. He needs to be reworked into a fighter.

new meta assasin bard is incomming i suppose
