Tired of seeing Vayne-Thresh-Yasuo in every game...
Like seriously. We get that Vayne is overpowered. And she is rightfully so. However, I can't find a champion who can 100-0 a real good (not pro) Vayne. Popularity has to factor into Vayne's winrate. Not everybody can be pro's, but c'mon Vayne is real easy. Vayne lacks a mechanic that requires any real amount of time, so she is really is overpowered by the standards of most ADC. She lacks a poke, but she makes up for it with being able to control her opponent and position herself.
Ideally, Tristana can do what Vayne does and could possibly outplay her. That's pretty much all it boils down to. Kalista can attempt to outplay Vayne but in a 1v1 situation in Jg, Vayne will win 99% of the time. Vayne, if fed, cannot be controlled and eventually becomes a ranged Tryndamere. You think you've killed her but suddenly she is gone, and she get's a good position and pushes you to the wall and gives it to you. I've seen a Vayne vs. Tryndamere, I can't believe Vayne wins 1v1 with him. The same fed Vayne can easily take out the APC, the Jg and the Tank in that order if she can remember to do it that way.
Yasuo is not so easy, and he's got a learning curve, but once you've got the hang of him the only way you can lose as Yasuo is not getting the hits off right or not using your Q scare properly. Another way to lose is if your team decided not to use any knockup champions. With Thresh and Vayne in every game, knock-ups aren't hard to find. Just use your unlimited E to Dance around, dodge APC abilities, and Close distances for your Q. I mean seriously, it's nearly impossible to trade with Yasuo and your only hope is to zone him out and hope that he doesn't realize that you're on cooldown 80% of the time. Some champions make mince meat out of Yasuo, like Azir and Heimer, but with a little intuition, they can both be outplayed. In fact, I looked up how to counter Yasuo, Champion vs. Yasuo, and I there were more suggestions suggesting the exact opposite.
Thresh is just too easy to use. Everybody knows his combo. He's like Blitzcrank, but with a Pull for allies. Blitzcrank is really popular, too, but he got his mobility nerfed big time. I have yet to see something as substantial as that done to Thresh. Dodging him really works, but Thresh can build tanky and still hurt? His passive late game begins to be pretty strong if Thresh has been on top of soul collecting. Soul collecting is a real nice reward, but I thought Riot was trying to move away from building health comfortably.
I look at Darius, and how people complained about the lack of counterplay to him. Well, he's fixed now. In a 1v1 situation with Vladimir, Darius stands absolutely no chance with Vlad. His delay on his Q, and inability to attack during makes him so difficult. Darius's real last leg is his crippling strike, which is about to recieve a major nerf as well.
I don't expect these changes to ever happen. I'm merely ranting that they're just in every game. ~120 champions, but I only see the same three. 106k Vayne games to the 1.7k Urgod games...
Update: 9/8 Project Release THE CRUELTY! VAYNE THRESH AND YASUO are on FREE WEEEK!! Usually, this happens before a champion gets hit with a nerf hammer. I see Soraka in the guillotine line as well as some other champs that have been widely criticized lately. I thought this was suppose to be rand0m?
