Riot about Yasuo: "44%-45% winrate feels quite awful for a champion with such a dedicated playerbase

Meanwhile, in patch 7.7 Rengar dropped to 43% winrate and stayed like that untill the lethality changes (and he wasn't even THAT strong after that, since the meta was so against him) and he got +3 armor in patch 7.18. 11 patches later for a (significant, I'll give you that) kind of revert of a previous nerf.

I almost did not want to say that Riot plays favorites, but they do.

Yasuo has a dedicated fan base because his kit is toxic and op as fuck. Of course people like playing him, duh!

Well if yasuo has a higher win rate he basically becomes permaban so you choose whether he is weak and playable or decent and permabanned

that's really untrue

Rengar win rate never hit 43%, i will give you the point that he was really bad! but he did not have that win rate

additionally they said lethality was going to be buffed around 7.9 or 7.10 just after blade of the ruined king became meta, which is why they didn't buff rengar! because if you buff a champion and his items it's no bueno senior
