Riot, can we talk about Yasuo for a second?

I've got a question for you guys: is it fair to leave him as he is such that his mains can't even play him 70% of the time? I think his ban rate is a problem. Sure some of it is because of Yasuo Derangement Syndrome, but whatever the case, I thought that mains of a champ should have a reasonable chance of actually playing their favorite champ. Right now Yasuo only gets through the ban phase 30% of the time, tops and then you have to worry about someone on the other team grabbing him. Considering all the effort people put in to him, maybe even gotten a skin, I think it's time you put him in a state where he doesn't get banned 7 out of 10 games.

If you guys can fix him via a numbers change or a small tweak {a new passive) then do it. If not, then he desperately needs a GU just so the people who actually want to play that champ have the opportunity. I know there are other champs you guys want to tackle first, but Yasuo won't need much of a visual update and in terms of gameplay the players are voting in mass that they don't want to deal with him. Yeah sure a few people might get upset but at this point, he needs to be fixed.

Leaving Yasuo as is isn't fair to the players. It's not fair to people who want to play him and it's not fair to the people who hate seeing him. So do your jobs and get yasuo into a playable state where he is fun to play but not rage-inducing to play against. Does anyone on the balance or design team not see that there is an issue leaving a champ at a 70% ban rate in perpetuity? At some point you guys have to do something about him, so why keep putting it off?
