Yasuo is getting buffed, not [Fixed]!

You see, his MR is getting buffed in both first level and scaling. Wanna take a closer look on the list of top champs that are performing well in most roles?
There you go https://eune.op.gg/champion/statistics , you can clearly see most of them deal [[Magic]] damage, specially in the top/jungle/mid departments.

You gave him better MR and MR scaling, bigger range on his R, and higher shield base value lategame [[+45]] in compensation for what? -40 shield early levels which can be completely ignored if played patiently and wait for midgame?

I remember back then the original base shield value used to be 60 at level 1, until you've decided to raise it to 100 and lowered its late value by 30 or 40. now it's completely getting reverted in the name of [[early game nerf]] along with his R range and additionally getting more MR.

and pretty soon I'll see his W getting buffed and put on lower CD, just cause he [[fares pretty well against mages when his cooldowns are up, so we’re giving him the tools to engage more often]].

There is no "ignoring" his early game shield nerf, you are Yasuo, you will be fighting the enemy frequently due to the nature of his kit, especially in the top lane where he is most popular

+45 shield lategame is nothing, that's like 1/12 of an ADC's auto attack

The intention of these changes is to push him away from top lane and towards midlane, which is exactly what they will do

40 hp early game is no joke

it's yasuo, i suggest you to not lose time, not post anything on board about yasuo and let riot handle the changes because they won't listen the QQ of board anyway

Yes, only lord and saviour Rubick is allowed to complain about every other champ and it not being QQ thread.

If you look closely you can see he only complains about champs who directly counter his playstyle. And anyone who disagrees is low elo and a bad player :^)

Not when it's irrational and pointless they won't.

I sincerely hope the Ekko patch notes meme never dies. They are words of downright mythical proportion.

I just want to remember that this is a World's balance patch, so changes coming up will be aimed at making the poster boys look cool in replays.

Yasuo is not even remotely a pro-scene poster boy.

Yeah, that's what the buffs are for.

How about not giving bullshit buffs to soloQ nightmares who will NEVER, EVER be played at worlds.
