I don't REALLY care i don't play him, but the IE changes don't seem beneficial to him, and essence reaver seems meh..

Yasuo never, and still won't take ER. He's manaless, so it's just throwing away more gold.

Also Bloodthirster is getting a cost reduction, and both Maw and GA are getting buffed, so he has better defensive options.

hmmm, not sure if that is the best argument cause trynda is also manaless adn builds currently er. And yasuo has built in the past trinity with sheen beeing a mana item.

Trynde builds ER because he needs another crit item to reach 100% crit chance, and another Zeal item would be too much of a waste (his worst winrate is with both PD and SS). It also granted him 30% CDR when he bought it, which is huge value as a second/third item, but now with only 20% CDR, no crit chance, and passive that doesn't work that well with his ultimate, which works best with engage ultimates such as Kai'Sa or Lucian. Yasuo building any CDR is laughable, his Q and E are already on incredibly short, static cooldowns.

Trinity on Yasuo, however, is a different situation. It used to give critical strike chance, which worked great with his passive, and the on-hit effect popped on every single one of his Q's. That's an extra +200% base AD per Q, which is still a huge buff, and champs still take that on Yas today, even in diamond. It also grants health, very valuable to Yasuo, who needs the extra tank, and it has another passive that helps with his positioning by giving him an extra 20 or so movement speed per auto/Q. The extra CDR on this item is really just a bonus, and the existence of mana on it makes it a 100% luxury item to only buy if you're already ahead.

yea, that is what i'm talking about, what a better argument is as "yasuo has no mana" [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

Sorry, forgot I was being graded on this.

On the bright side, with IE, conquerer, LDR, and his ult %pen, he'll be doing basically just true damage against everyone after pressing R.

Unfortunately, he'll also be doing less damage per auto than everyone else.

SO no more 100% crit chance?

He'll still have it (unless it doesn't multiply with his passive, and instead adds, in which case, rip Yasuo), but his passive reduces his crit damage automatically.

Yeah this is gonna hit him pretty hard. If it is too bad, they'll probably give him his 10% crit damage back.

Yasuo top will be weak AF (he's already weak if u ask me). PD is more costly, IE get a bad build path (for him). Essence reaver... forget it.

He'll be better on botside with the nerf of adcs (base stats and itemizations). still okay i think for mid.

Thats for critSUO.

but item 3153 item 3078 are still option for him.
