Why AS nerf on Yasuo?

what is the point of per level attack speed gain on Yasuo? he is not some burst mage or caster assassin, wtf? you nerf attack speed on a champion who heavily depends on it do his job. there are about 20 champs currently with better AS scaling than him, and none of them are "melee carry" except maybe Jax who has his passive in addition to that. A teemo has better AS scaling, better base AS and delay than current Yasuo. really wtf? i dont care about ult armor penetration changes, that thing always appeared useless as fk to me anyway.

Hmm...maybe because he scales harder on attackspeed than almost any other champion in the game, outside of maybe Yi.

Its forcing him to buy more. This is not a problem. Notice that he gets more out of attack speed now that his base is higher.

It's mostly directed to Tank Yasuo.

when you're nerfing a champ you tend to nerf something they rely on so they actually become weaker. I mean they could nerf his AP scaling ratios, but I don't think that's going to make him balanced
