Yasuo makes me want to uninstall.

He might not be broken or over powered, but he honestly makes me want to uninstall every time. He's the most un-fun champion in my opinion.

The worst part is that an enemy Yas is always great and an ally Yas is always a feeder.

Also known as the Shaco syndrome.

And the Lee Syndrome.

EvilRabbittMar 28, 20163 votes

I think Lee was first then Shaco, not sure. Syndrome notoriety I mean...

Remlap1223Mar 28, 20167 votes

No, Shaco was first because he was released first.

Spaceman5pffMar 28, 20165 votes

Also, Lee Syndrome is a condition cause a Lee Sin player to always go in on every q they land. While this may cause feeding, it has no relation to team placement and as such is not a substitutable term for Shaco Syndrome.

That's when you hit something with your Q, so you go in regardless of how suicidal it is.

Decent Yasuo players who know how to abuse his .1 second CD dash are insanely frustrating to lane against, but other than that I don't really have any problems with him.

ArakadiaMar 27, 20166 votes

It's the easy 100% crit, 50% armor shred, and windwall that get to me. His ult hurts a lot but what can you expect for someone of his low defense and role. Dat windwall is annoying af when it blocks something important such as an ult

Succubús GFMar 27, 201622 votes

His entire kit makes me cringe. Sometimes i just want to afk xD But i can usually go Malzahar and do alright

ArakadiaMar 27, 20167 votes

That windwall makes it so annoying and scared cuz he can block many ppl's ults...

Yas main here. You've got it all wrong. The most un-fun champion in the game is Fizz <-- THIS MOTHERFUCKER

Spicy RiceMar 28, 20162 votes

Holy fuck yes. Even when I win, I feel like I've lost something important inside

iSmellRiceMar 28, 20169 votes

He looks fun to play but for those that know how to play him completely dominate in low ELO bceause nobody else knows how he works. He's extremely annoying even if behind, and never fails to make me frustrated.

Only Play DariusMar 28, 20168 votes

Lol

KogMaw is back at 55% winrate and hella easy to play

And you choose to complain about Yasuo!

I can think of many champs right now that are ACTUAL balance problems Graves Corki Kindred Udyr XinZhao Quinn Azir

AnomanderMar 28, 20167 votes

The Op doesn't say he is broken or over powered. Just UNFUN. This isn't a balance issue. I really wish people would read the whole post before commenting.

Only Play DariusMar 28, 20167 votes

Most of the champions I listed though are extremely unfun to play against right now, as they often have a better chance of winning than yours simply because they made it through ban phase. Tell me what's fun about Kog clicking W and melting your entire team while he sits behind 2 tanks?

SithesisLordMar 28, 20163 votes

What´s so fun about Yasuo having a non-ultimate ability that allows him to deny any actual damage to him, safe for some exceptions, like Kayle?

He already has a shield. His windwall is quite pointless to have. And the fact that it blocks anything coded as a projectile, even freaking ultimates, is pretty goddamn unhealthy.

But hey, 'muh outplayz', am i right?

Spicy RiceMar 28, 20161 votes

Are you one of those people who don't know how to walk past windwall?

SithesisLordMar 28, 20163 votes

I play Kayle, i don´t need to. I just find it a bad example of code reuse to just code things that clearly aren´t projectiles as projectiles. Namely Braum's ult, Nami's ult and Orianna's ball.

Braum and Nami's ults should be coded like Lux's ult, or similar. And Orianna's ball, as a unit.

Alternatively, Yasuo's windwall should work as Fiora's riposte. In the sense that it will only work to its full potential if activated at the right time. And only then would it be able to block projectiles. Because let´s be fair, Yasuo doesn´t have Fighter as one of his defined roles for nothing. And he isn´t squishy at all nowadays because Sterak's exists.

VerdadeMar 28, 20162 votes

Actually, i love playing against all listed champions, maybe except Quinn. They're very weak against Vel'koz :3

Lord GalvatronMar 28, 20167 votes

That's when you play Malphite against him, as you laugh manically while you slap him in the face with your 500 Armor E.

Also shouting "BLOCK THIS *&%^@!" when you ult him will 100% guarantee brighten your day.

MasziiMar 28, 20167 votes

I once played as a fed nasus with thornmail vs a yasuo and i got 4 shot while i was in my ult. It was then when i realized thornmail is absolutely useless

Lord GalvatronMar 28, 20166 votes

Yasuo is not an aa based champion, which is why you build Randuins, and not Thornmail against him, the reflection passive is useless against a good Yasuo. Also Yasuo counters Nasus as you have no hard cc to prevent him from kiting you.

Malphite also is able to deal with Yasuo during early game, as you can constantly pop his passive shield with Q or any of your AoE abilities while farming.

archelockeMar 28, 20168 votes

yasuo's q counts as an aa apparently

it applies all aa effects

it is his highest damaging ability and the thing he spams the most and weaves aas in between them

how is he not an aa based champ

Lord GalvatronMar 28, 20163 votes

Even though the Q acts as an auto-attack, it is still an ability that has to be activated. This is why silences demolish him unlike most ADC's or Master Yi. Yasuo heavily relies on his abilities (E to dash and Q to attack). This is also the reason why you build solid damage instead of atk speed (with the exception of stattik which is used for crit). Your job is literally to "4 shot" enemy champions using your armor shred and Q.

RalanrMar 28, 20162 votes

Except AA slows affect the cooldown of his Q.

arc95Mar 28, 20167 votes

Fizz is no doubt the worst I hate him so much... like nothing insta tilts me harder... having an AD Velkoz & AD Viktor as your bot lane is better than laning against a Fizz

also as a Yasuo main I like when people play Yasuo against me he's actually pretty easy to wreck in lane(assuming he isn't late picked as a hard counter to you like Yasuo into Vel'koz or something)

FriusMar 27, 20165 votes

he is also bugged, his W doesnt really block projectiles sometimes like tf card and his auto attack stops after using E

KarfussMar 28, 20163 votes

Yasuo is the epitome of anti-fun. He isn't overpowered or broken, he's obnoxious to play against. He has an answer to everything except being CC'd and burst out the game.

Rely on projectiles to do damage? Wall. Rely on AoE skillshots? 0.1s Dash = Untouchable with minion wave. Manage to hit him? Shield mitigates damage. Are you melee? Will out trade early-mid with double Crit. Dodge his ultimate? Impossible if he uses his third Q with Dash.

He has an overloaded kit that gives him an advantage against any possible lane match up and the only answer is to CC and melt face, which often cannot be achieved alone by the overwhelming majority of champions. His only counter play is his counter picks, and if you're against a good Yasuo without one of his counter picks, you lost your lane at champion select. That isn't healthy at all.

ZedexMar 28, 20161 votes

It's only unhealthy to you because you lose a lot to it, hence your bias. There's a reason why pro players don't complain that he's broken, or don't pick/ban him every game like some actual broken champs.

Yasuo is a melee carry, and when he snowballs, (like 90% of the roster btw) leaves little for you to do. The difference with Yasuo, is thats what hes supposed to do. Hes a murder champion, he kills other champions, that IS HIS JOB. Complaining that he excels at this is just...Silly.

And I'm wondering why you're letting him get in range for an E Q. Flashing and doing it before you can react is different, because every champion ( Annie Elise Pantheon Singed Ahri ) has that ability when using flash to "suddenly" CC you without much recourse. So really, its not much of a problem, really only is with flash.

TerffMar 28, 20163 votes

He and lux are my most hated champions

High5Mar 27, 20162 votes

You should definitely uninstall the game. I don't want to play with people who are too lazy to learn how to counter other champs.

LegacyDAPMar 27, 20169 votes

Ayy lmao. IF you actually read the 3 sentences on this entire post. You'd realize I understand how he works and don't think he's broken. It doesn't mean I like to play against him.
