Seriously Yasuo needs major changes.

This is the thing. The mental pressure of laning against a Yasuo is immense. From lvl 1 if he E's on you and trades he has a free shield to block your retaliation spell. And can 1v1 you from 100-0 in seconds if you choose to stand and fight. After level 1 he gets Q and then ever six or so seconds he can prepare a long range tornado that creates immense pressure you always have to dodge. It also gives him tremendous wave clear. Also if he E on you and Q's at short range he can 100-0 you again in seconds and his free shield and Q knock up gives him an enormous advantage over anyone. You can't trade and win. And then you give him his W which blocks all ranged attacks making every mage or rage champ useless.

If he is going to be a melee champ take away his tornado. If his tornado is gone then the pressure of having to dodge it for 10 seconds goes away and you can lane more comfortably. And definitely take away his free shield. Ranged mages can do nothing against him with that shield up. And you can't just AA it away because if you get in AA range he can dash on you and light you up.

Playing against a Yasuo is no fun and he's in every single game, either played or banned. HE ALWAYS MAKES AN IMPACT.

Yasuo takes Q first though...

Or the dash, but I've never seen him take windfall first.

Yeah, in that case Yasuo is going to be super useless and ridiculously weak both early and late game. Oh, how about removing Zed's ult and Fizz's e? That should make mid lane much easier and peaceful. I think it is just not going to be always that easy to farm a mid lane. As a Mage, one must know not only how to throw skill shots, but also have great positioning and awareness in order to carry a team.

Oh yeah...get ready for the "but they already nerfed him!" or "learn to play noob! be smart like us!" comments. Dunno...I'm just trying to accept that I lose if I don't get a team with CC vs yasuo/Fizz

congrats. you just instantly gutted him. He's a balanced champ. Frustrating, sure, but balanced. What really need changes here is your ability to play against him.

Yasuo is honestly so easy to beat. He has shit base stats and all you have to do is auto attack his shield to pop it and it becomes worthless. Windwall doesn't do jack shit unless you're dumb enough to blow all of your spells on it and it has such a high cooldown it gives you plenty of time to kill him. L2P
