What if Yasuo was given the Thresh nerf treatment

Irelia Bot·Dec 24, 2016·5 votes·681 views

In other words move his double crit passive to Steel Tempest or Wind wall and make it increase his current crit chance by 20/40/60/80/100% based on rank.

I call this the thresh nerf treatment since Thresh use to have the on hit magic damage currently on Flay (E) on his Death Sentence (Q). As I understand, this was done to make more of his abilities have better value in his kit and so his E was not a one point wonder that you always max last due to having a 9 second cooldown at all ranks.

That's not the "Thresh" treatment Thresh got a passive moved from one ability to the other What you're suggesting is moving part of his passive to an ability

Before and after the change, Thresh has a passive scale with ability rank Your change for Yasuo doesn't work the same way

Make it so he can't drain tank (something he should NEVER be doing) and he'll be fine.

No he already has to have a near full build before doing damage.

Thresh isn't a fighter nor a slayer to do as much damage as Yasuo is meant to.

Exuse yourself. Him doing 400 damage with two items, while champion like leblanc do 200 level 1 with no items isn't him doing any damage. please stop.

Except Leblanc is gated by mana and actually has to take risk to get her damage off.

One item and that "gated by mana" bullshit falls off. She can near one hit people with her kit if she has the items. WHat risks? she teleports in clones herself, teleports back without effort while nearly 1 hitting enemies. What risk?

Better than getting to be a fucking drain tank that never dies while still doing the damage of an assassin every two autos

In case you didn't realize, he can max W first if he wants to. And I highly doubt he's going to get both IE and a completed zeal item before level 7.

Don't care, this is a dumb idea and tries to weaken an already weak early game champion.

lol, if that's your dumb concern, I'm all for nerfing the shit out of his late game power in exchange for giving him significantly more early game power. Boost the crap out of his Q and E damage, then take away the double crit chance and the ability to knock up every 1.5 seconds.

Yeah no, considering he is balanced and you just can't outplay him, I don't he has any nerfs coming. As for giving him less power late game, his entire kit, build, play style and everything would have to change to fit this and riot has never once done that to a champion for no reason.
