Before we look at Yasuo specific changes though we want to look at Warlord's Bloodlust, see whether we need to adjust that first and if so what spot Trynd/Yasuo end up in, given they'll be better placed than almost any other champion to take advantage of that mastery.

Facepalm ITS NOT THE MASTERY ITS HIS DAMN DOUBLE CRIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Problem with Yasuo is his sustain thanks to Bloodlust. Not his crit.

The Bigger problem here is that he can 3 shot at 10 minutes. There is 0 reason for him to be able to do that

his sustain is now a problem, but his crit was always a problem. The community said it 15000 times, they should remove it a redirect its power somewhere else

His crit was always a problem in low ELO. You want RIOT to listen to silvers and golds complaining about Yasuo, Riven and Master Yi, just because they dont know how to pick Malphite or other counters?

the idea of balancing him arround having a late game power with 2 items was always stupid, when he was viable he used to deal 500 damage every Q at 25 min in top elo games which was cancer. see gangplank? he needs at least 35 min to have a late game hard carry mode, the problem with gangplank was his early game being too safe.

yasuo was then nerfed: his shield and his stats were the primary targets which was bad, because he needed it to teamfight.

instead of removing his cancer mechanic, they nerfed his teamfight ability

Yasuo MUST have his mechanics. He is melee squishy fighter. Ye he is a bit strong in lane vs certain champions. But he is required to in middle of fight, where he can be easily killed. Problem with Yasuo is that he is popular and very skill demanding, so when people lose to him, they feel humiliated and cry blaming champion. The way this game works is: champion is irrelevant, its your skill. If Yasuo is better player than you he will beat you, but he would beat u with any other champion also. If you are better player than Yasuo, you gonna make him 0:10 and cry OMG your champion op. Its all about skill.

15 seconds of 50% bonus armor penetration on everyone just to make sure that nothing survives.

Good Yasuo's have always shown his stupidly dominant lane - just needs one item to 3 hit any squishy - he's needed some toning for a while, it's his crit scaling that makes him absolutely stupid to play against.

Just play akali and stomp him in lane. He is not well equipped to fight that kit.

I called this OVER a month ago!!!

Warlord's Bloodlust.
disgusting new AD items.
AP nerfs across the board.
Emphasise on Marksman increasing the power of wind wall.

HOW did no one on the balance team see this coming!!!?

I think that this approach is actually something that I'm REALLY glad that they're doing. i don't like playing as or against Yasuo myself, but this is how the balance team needs to go about this stuff if they don't want to Sejuani anyone, when a champion's power budget is reallocated to external things (masteries, items, etc.), which are then nerfed.
