The difference between Yasuo and other melee champions

Cloud273··2 votes·331 views

Other melees can just right click you to death and win (Jax, Fiora, etc) and they actually have good cc (that's not a skillshot). I don't really count Yasuo's knockup, since he has to land 3 skillshots in a row to get it. You guys have said it yourself. CC wins games. And Yasuo's cc is sh*t. But apparently he's broken because windwall. Yes god forbid a squishy with terrible cc and situational mobility have any defensive abilities at all.

Yasuos cc isn't bad it's a knock up that can be followed up with his ult keeping you airborne for awhile, and you can hit multiple people with the tornado. He's more comparable to Camille, jax, fiora and etc who build damage and then go tankier. Not every melee champion does this like Talon, zed, blue kayn and etc who just build mainly damage. I also wouldn't say he's a squishy since he has 2 defensive tools 1 being a shield.

the windwall is annoying to play around but its his Q that i dont like as well... kinda acts like a mini guinsoo if that makes sense

So Fiora actually has good CC.

???

I mean I don't even think Yasuo's that powerful, but your reasoning is kinda weird af.

Also people complaining about Yasuo don't seem to get Yasuo's most annoying trait. Yasuo's most annoying trait is taking fleet footwork and domination (sudden impact -> free lethality) and having an insane laning phase off those + his passive shield due to the sustain, and when he snowballs he becomes a monster. But if he doesn't I guess he isn't that good, so...

the real problem is that his wall can be used to defend his TEAM, and not just him, and that can give a good yasuo stupid amounts of utility.

His wall is like the only ability in his kit that's actually reliable. 99% of the time I can't even use my ult cuz I get cc'd just as the knockup happens. My 'q' can be dodged, and as I said the dash is situational. If your enemy is smart they can easily avoid being dashed onto. The dash also has a super long animation, so a lot of times I can just kill him before he even finishes the dash. Try dodging any of Fiora or Jax's abilities. People don't understand that you need more than just damage to win games. You need RELIABLE damage and cc. Something you know will hit and make an impact in a fight.
