Champs without mana should not have ability to poke

{quoted}

I just have this one account lmao. Because GP is heavily gated by mana costs and CDs, Yasuo isn't by neither. Want to know how much CD one barrel has with no CDR? 18 seconds, that's a high CD. Also, every decent Yasuo can kill GP early on, I played the matchup a few more times then you, even in Plat+.

For one GP shouldnt be walking close enough to yasuo early game for him to hit his un-empowered q. Also GP can spam his Q faster than yasuo can spam his tornado. OFC GP dies to yas early, he dies to most early game champs while he is a late game champ.

Listen i understand your frustrated playing against early game champs but the point im trying to make is Energy users cant out poke most champs unless certain conditions are met. Them having the ability to poke has little to nothing to do with you being frustrated with them. If your upset yasuo can get melee to you and hit Q alot on you and you cant trade back because of mana cost and cd, that has nothing to do with poking...

All of her cooldowns are above 10 seconds at rank 1

I hate to break it to you but thats kind of everyone. Actually no, most champions have a lot higher cooldowns that RIven even at lvl1, and sometimes skills that do less that Riven's Q or E. Some people have 20s or more on some skills.

Playing Riven (and probably Yasuo too) really seems to warp how someone views the rest of the game huh

yes, and my comment was not about them being manaless but instead showing that there are lots of ranged champions toplane who function similarly to those mentioned

resource management is pretty nonexistent now anyway, especially with so many champions having practically free abilities. Thresh gets an empowered auto every few seconds as an example

besides just dodging it.

His Q is almost an instant cast, while you AA to last hit, you either continue the hit or lose CS, thus get hit by his Q.

he can use it when ure going to last hit a minion, you can't dodge it in that momemnt cause u'll be stationary for a sec.

Buddy, you main Gangplank.

You have point and click poke from a longer range than Yasuo's that, get this, does literally the exact same damage (unless they crit, in which case Gangplank's does MORE), and if you can use your barrels well does even more damage and is even longer range. Yasuo's has a shorter cooldown, but he exposes himself far more and can actually, you know, miss it.

On a very high CD and shocker, it costs 60 Mana. Where is Yasuos mana cost?

(unless they crit, in which case Gangplank's does MORE),

And GP needs to invest MORE money into less Crit, yes.

and if you can use your barrels well does even more damage and is even longer range.

Everyone who plays ranged and has above 4 IQ can destory it, unless its a phantom barrel which is incredibly hard and risky to pull of.

Yasuo's has a shorter cooldown,

Like I can miss my barrels and have to wait 15 seconds with 45 CDR to get three back. How much CDR does Yasuo build?

but he exposes himself far more

And has a windwall that blocks everything, has two shields if he procs his Ult and insane healing. GP builds glass cannon to stay relevant and yes, he can escape one CC spell (that isn't a knock up, you know, like Yasuo Q), but he gets blown up incredibly easy.

Oh and did I mentioned Yasuo can deny GPs Q and thus deny his combos? Don't speak about GP if you don't have a clue, lmao.

No. They actually gave him that passive to make is laning phase have interaction. He has such high range and wave clear that he cant be interacted with, so riot made his spells cost 120 mana so he would oom in a few casts and the massive mana cost couldn't be negated with flat mana or mana regin. He has to auto minions or players (autoing just minions still ooms him hard early). If they removed his passive he couldn't lane at all, and if he could via mana cost reductions, you'd never see him on your screen just hitboxes and explosions. then they made mana flowband, and That percentage mana regin from total invalidated his costs... .
