I'm all for Yasuo being reworked to make him healthier but I just hope that you guys are doing this because you truly believe that Yasuo is in a bad state. You guys have done a good job for the most part during the assassin rework (New kat is amazing) so I trust that Yasuo will be fine for players who love him and those who wish he was never created.
N0rth Wind2 votesAs a Yasuo player that still thinks he's very annoying to play against (and that's why he's actually undertuned) I firmly believe that Riot doesn't give in to "omg op, nerf plis" cries from the community anymore. Personally, every time they rework one of my mains I almost jizz myself out of joy.
When I heard they're reworking 4 of my mains in the assassin update, I almost had a heart attack. Everyone else was like "omg rito dunt tuch my main" and I was like "OH YES YES YES YES YES". Look at what happened now. Katarina is the most fun champion in the game, Talon is stronger and cooler than ever but without the annoying instant blink, and Kha is also a delight to play.
So, I totally trust them. If they do to Yasuo and Yi what they did to my lovely Assassins, I'm probably going to miss out on an entire semester in university just to play LoL all day. xD
Basically, the only things worry me about Yasuo:
RlP K0BE1 votesLol I was excited when I heard it will be like a Katarina level rework, she has been way more fun and satisfying to play since then. I'm also looking forward to see what direction they take him. I feel like his passive and W will be receiving the bulk of the changes as those seem to be complained about the most. I wouldn't mind his double crit chance being removed because that would free up his builds but at the same time that might cause the return of tank/bruiser Yasuo which is what nobody wants.
N0rth Wind1 votesI think his W will actually be unchanged. It's totally balanced as an ability.
Also, I don't think his double crit chance is OP. People just have no idea what they're talking about. Yasuo rushing crit early means that yes, he's critting on every hit, but he's critting you for 80 damage while a Riven would be doing 100 per hit despite not critting. But apparently just seeing the red number tilts them instantly, without even seeing for how much.
Generally, I would not mind his double crit chance getting removed if they add another powerful affinity with crit into his kit. I'd rather have to build 100% crit myself, and have a crit damage bonus in my kit, than only have to get 50% but do shitty crits anyway. At the end of the day he's a late game champion, so his early reliance on non-scaling things (passive, E) really puts me off.
I really hope they do him justice without getting affected by the noobs that cry "omg d1leet him" or the idiotic 'yasuo mains' that say that he's IDEAL as he is right now.
Weathered1 votesThey never said he was being reworked. They said he would appear in a patch soon.

Obviously this doesn't mean that a rework is 100% coming but it is very possible.
Kató1 votesHello everyone, i posted a Discussion today regarding potential Yasuo update. In the Discussion you can find my Ideas for potential fixes or upgrades, ners or buffs to Yasuo (Bare in mind those are some of my ideas in which i put a lot of thought, so its not just me rambling the dirst thing from top of my head). I would just like to post a link so i dont have to type it all in here. Here's the link : http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/TIGWu8zy-ideas-for-yasuo?comment=0000000000000000000000000000
