No not in terms of balance.
"Hey guys, I picked Yasuo. Please pick Janna, Malphite, Vayne and Rek'sai so I can get knock-ups for ult. Thanks."
"Hey guys, I picked Sejuani. Please pick Darius, Blitzcrank, Talon and Mordekaiser so I can get stuns for my E. Thanks."

"Hey guys can you walk near me so I can use my Basic ability W, otherwise I can't"
Some synergy can be good. Others BAD. Please learn the Difference
ModCaptainMårvelous6 votesNot quite what I mean.
Morde's is a case of "Please understand my mechanic". Sejuani/Yasuo would be a case of "Please make the entire comp revolve around an aspect of my pick."
Mordepool2 votesMy point is that it isn't the worst thing in the world.
She is still a solid pick and can function by herself.
But IF your team buys in to the synergy is that really a bad thing?
Big Lincoln2 votessejuani is good by herself in the early game when at most you'll do a 2v2 top lane
in teamfights she's now a worthless pick over other tanks if you dont have other melees
ModCaptainMårvelous2 votesIt is if you're pressuring people to make picks around you. "Hey I know you wanted to play Sona but I picked Yasuo so you should pick Alistar got it?"
Mordepool2 votesI don't know if that will be as big of a problem it's a big roster with lots of melee champions.
I see your point for sure but with 50+ melee champions 40% of the roster the odds are slightly better than 29 with knock ups
LankPants1 votesThe difference is that Yasuo still functions just as well off of a well placed knockup of his own, he can still get a huge ult with his own Q.
In a teamfight a Sej+Yi combo will most likely be able to stun 4-5 enemies with E, a Sej by herself will probably only be able to stun 2.
Yasuo having synergy basically improves his worst case, if you're with a Malphite you probably shouldn't ever ult less than 2 guys in a teamfight, by yourself there's times when you'll have to settle for 1, in either case you could still do considerably better. Sej improves her best case, there's always a chance that you'll just get disengaged and not get a stun, with or without an ally but with an ally you have so much better potential to stun many enemies.
I really hate this design because it ties Sej to her melee allies, even if I play the best possible as Sej I'm still not going to be able to E as many people as a retard with a Yi behind them.
Want to reform1 votesTo be honest, i find Sejuani is more of an all-rounder now, similar to Zac.
She does SHIT-TONS of hybrid damage, and she can usually proc her double stun easily by herself.
RainbowIcee1 votesI seriously doubt it. She's gonna keep getting the nerf hammer. Sejuani is honestly not very interesting to watch, and we're on mid season, soon enough preliminaries will start and people don't wanna see a big ass cow crashing into champions and freezing them. That's not gonna bring a lot of views. They will very likely overbuff so
he can replace sejuani in time for finals. He's a lot flashier and they love that. I don't think sejuani is intended to be played more than zac. But that's just me assuming. I hope i'm wrong though..
Fly Fish Master1 votesIf the Yasuo is asking you to pick champs that have knock-ups, he is bad.
Slack King1 votesNo not in terms of balance.
Sej still isnt as cancer as yas
Chembaron Yamada1 votesKalista is a better knock-up adc than Vayne. :<
Meep Man1 votesYeah, but Vayne can do it much more often
