Yasuo simi rework discussion?

Klekle··1 votes·193 views

Helloooo Happy New year!

So I wanted to see if I could get a discussion on creativity. See I kind of really dislike playing into Yasuo, but every time I explain my (suffering) struggle I'm told yeah well he is on the fence, if Riot buffs him, he is op, and if Riot nerfs him he is unusable... or I'm told "you are the kind of person that ruins league of legends..."

Any thoughts? See way I see it is why not instead of changing the numbers, change his skills all together while maintaining his Wind Samurai theme.

I was thinking his ult could instead of smacking one person repeatedly like the monster he is, maybe have his savage beating on only one person (instead of aoe) and push everyone back like the old Xhin Zhao ult. Then replace windwall with his tornado effect, and combine the two, put it on a 13 second cooldown, and make it intercept all all abilities it touches so it doesn't linger there being annoying/ or usless when used in a less , BUT it is up more often to compensate and facilitating the application of his knock-back -cc-ult. Lastly change his passive to give him crit, based on stacks like Trind rather than flat out 2xCrit and to compensate, allowing his dash to not need a target... I don't have PBE access but I'd like to see some sort of testing of this if possible... I dunno whatever is done I don't mind I just play the game for fun.

I never really have any problem against Yas top; Garen could the floor with him and Poppy can screw him over.

That's the first time I've heard a suggestion like that: making W his tornado throw, but have the tornado intercept projectiles as it travels? Interesting. However, if the knock up requirement is still tied to his ult, it's not good to have it on such a high cooldown.

Also, the only real problem with Windwall is that it spawns inside his hitbox. I think it's fine aside from that.

His double crit chance is fine. Tryndamere's is actually problematic in my mind, since it's available level 1 and can auto win most melee matchups... at least Yasuo has to buy his free crit. And Tryndamere is only 15% worse than Yasuo overall.
