Can you explain, with stats, how Yasuo isn't out of line with all other Champions?

Yasuo can start, with runes and a brawlers glove, at 60% crit, with each AA dealing 114 damage per hit 60% of the time. So he naturally hits harder than most if not anyone, right? despite the fact that his crits do -10% damage, he's still going to be critting 60% of the time. Then, he gathers a shield via movement, which he can do quite a bit of via his dashing. So, he naturally is as mobile than most if not anyone, correct? Seems that way. Then the Windwall, that blocks ults.

Logically, the shield+the natural hard hits+Mobility+blocking ults, then you add on no resource pool, low cooldowns, Q gets CDR from attack speed lol, that last one is so ridiculous I honestly laugh a little. Now, I've played Yasuo, since it's Yasuo free week, though it seems more like it's "yasuo mains making smurf accounts to be bullies week". Anyways, He isn't easy to play. He's pretty complicated. Despite this though, breaking him down piece by piece, man. Not even Zed or Riven add up to as much as Yasuo does, because they are bound to the same restraints that all non-Yasuo champions are, cooldowns.

I think Yasuo should most certainly be lowered in power, but it isn't like Yasuo is overpowered, that's not the right word. Yasuo is essentially a god, unbound by the restrictions everyone else has to deal with. Literally no other champion is within his ballpark, he's a completely ridiculous outlier. Just...Make Yasuo not insane. That's all that needs to happen.

You do realize this is stupidly weak and makes him even more abusable?

you do realise he knows it and tries to manipulate people?

he didn't even count yasuo's crit penality

You are wrong, I did count yasuo's crit penalty.

"So he naturally hits harder than most if not anyone, right? despite the fact that his crits do -10% damage, he's still going to be critting 60% of the time."

I would suggest you work on your reading comprehension instead of...whatever this is.

he has 55 base ad if you did count the crit penality how the hell did you get to 114 damage?

a crit at lvl 1 is 200% damage, yasuo deals 10% less damage which makes it 180% he won't deal 114 damage

He actually deals 99 damage if you calculate like this: 55 x 2 - 10%

Best princess EU1 votes

it's not 55+200%

it's 200% damage, it's not 200% bonus damage jesus fc he will deal 110 damage without the crit penality

Critical strike

A critical strike is a basic attack that deals twice its normal damage

Yasuo is disgusting, the most game warping champion. Even though he's undertuned right now it's easy for him to get fed in yolo queue and ruin the game. I'm really sick of him. He's cancer in lane and ruins the game if he gets fed.

I don't care about his early game strong autoattacks. I care about him being manaless and yet having such a powerful, game changing utility in Wind Wall. I care about him having a 0 cooldown dash which he gains in a situation where you should be at a disadvantage (in the enemy minions) and this is a fundamentally broken and game warping thing.

For example the other day I was against a Yasuo who was able to delay my team's push while we had baron by proxying the minions behind us. The insane mobility he gains by proxying prevented us from catching him for most of the duration of our baron buff, and it also prevented us from pushing until finally somebody managed to flank him. This isn't necessarily a balance issue but it's more of a game health issue. It's uninteractive stalling, one of the most universally hated things in competitive gaming. And this is just one example of the things he can do to make the game less fun.

IDK I could go on forever about how badly designed he is and how much we would benefit if he was gutted completely out of viability.
