Yasuo Q timer nerf input from a yasuo player

Just wanted to discuss this, for the sake of consistent gameplay, the Q nerf from 10>6 seconds is actually brutal for early lane yas. It's basically a 3-4 second window of throwing your q due to q's cooldown. Even at max attackspeed, the most you can get is 4.66 seconds to actually throw your q. This really doesn't give him many options without spamming q's on wave to try and be relevant with poke. I think that the time for him to throw his q should go back to 10 seconds and scale down to 6 with attackspeed gained, or per q level. Then you could make q more impactful in other ways, if you went with the per q level way. Also something that needs fixing sooner than later is the self cast being removed due to the lag fix for lee sins w, I know it was included in the patch notes but this is actually a really important thing that should be maybe even hotfixed.

? Of course the change was a loss of power, it was intended to be one, I don't really see a reason why you'd want to revert a change that actually got him down to a reasonable level(still has a 50% WR in plat+) without overnerfing him.

I think the early reduction on the Q timer is fine. My problem is not with the early Q nerf. I have problem in the mid and late game. I think this q nerf is effecting me more mid and late game than early. I think the early nerf to the is quite healthy because what i do on yasuo is that at lvl 1 charge my q and i use it to zone people from cs and that way i could shove them and hit lvl 2 first and go for kill. Personally i am against those champions that can zone ppl from cs early at lvl1 and lvl2. And with this nerf doing this has become quite hard because my Q expire 4sec early I so dont get 3-4 extra autos on cs for free. I think the Q duration should scale with the levels for example (6/7.33/8.66/10 at lvl 1/6/11/16). That way his early game is effected and because of that yasuo can be punished if he misplays.
