I am so glad manaless champs....

Good thing he is super easy to kite, his wind wall has a long cooldown, and his ult relies on him landing a very easy to dodge skill shot which he has to be able to proc first unless one of his teammates has a knock up and is competent enough to know when to use it.

Why is everyone convinced Cooldown based champs need long cool downs. You guys do realize there are other ways to design champs right?

Hell, his Wind Wall is on a long cool down, and since you don't and really shouldn't itemize CDR for Yasuo, that's a basically unfixable problem right there.

Have long cool downs...

Manaless champions, by and large, operate in a sudo-auto-attack method. Auto-attacks are manaless.

Mana usually operates in a front-loading 10 seconds of damage into 1 second mechanic. Which is clearly better than spreading 10 seconds of damage over 10 seconds, so it uses an ammo system to gate it's abuse. That, or mana allows you to fire that 10 seconds of damage from 1000~1500 range.

Big thing to recognize about manaless champions is that, for all intents and purposes, they're mostly just using fancy auto-attack steroids that wound up being coded as abilities. And they're usually melee, or at the very least have much shorter range than the average within their archetype.

Not 100% the case - but there's a pretty big difference between Yasou building up 3 charges of Steel Tempest to access his ultimate and Jax comboing Leap Strike and Empowered strike and Counterstrike to hit at exactly the same time, fallowed immediately by an AA reset Grandmaster's proc and Triforce proc auto. Loading his entire kit's damage into a 1-1 blink-and-you-missed-it burst.

I expected a picture of Riven.
