Yasuo Rework

Hello, I am a Yasuo main. I like this champion as a character and as a playable wind samurai. But every time I play against him, there is little to no counter play or fun. Awesome to play as him, terrible to play against him. Playing a good amount of games as him I have a few proposed changes that will allow him to have more counter play and maybe make him more balanced in general.

Passive: way of the wanderer- no extra crit, instead Yasuo gains bonus movement speed per level while out of combat Flow- flow is generated naturally and by moving. flow is used to cast spells. Dashes do not count towards flow.

Q: Steel tempest- deals 20/40/60/80/100 (60/70/80/90/100% ad) in a line CD 4 sec (scales with attack speed) cost: 20 flow

this change allows for Yasuo to still attain power late game, but not be such a lane bully early game.

W: Wind wall- now blocks projectiles in only one direction( I.E. if a projectile hits from behind the wall it will go through) CD: 30/28/26/24/22 cost: 40 flow

this change is just to make Yasuo's wind wall less annoying. Also re code to what is and what is not a projectile.

E: sweeping blade- now generates charges, can hold a maximum of 2 charges. charges are generated periodically. the Dash will deal 70/90/110/130/150 magic damage (70% ap ratio). Dash will now no longer be affected by cc. CD: static 1.4/1.3/1.2/1.1/1.0 sec charges generated every: 19/18/17/16/15 sec cost: 10 per dash

this allows yasuo to still maintain some mobility, but not dash around infinitely, making skill shots hard to land.

R: Last breath- deals 200/300/400 (110% bonus AD) physical damage to all airborne targets within an area. Yasuo only gains an 50% bonus armor pen on ulted targets.

CD: 80/55/30 cost: none

This allows for Yasuo to not be such a threat in team fights and to use his ult more carefully and not jump on the first guy that gets airborne by a Blitzcrank.

These are my ideas for a Yasuo rework. Leave a comment or a suggestion down below and tell me what you think!

as a Yasuo "Main" you sure don't win a lot with him and sure do die a lot.

And this is why riot shouldn't listen to people on balance. Those changes would destroy him.

I hate Yasuo, but I'd hate to see this destroy him in game.

You should go read up on posts by intelligent players who present reworks on their champion of choice. They're organized and there's more than just "Do this, change this" to support their suggestions. This is made by someone who plays a champion casually and doesn't necessarily understand exactly how they work but they feel like their idea would "help" a champion .

Besides... Yasuo is so new... Yorick needs love still.
