Yasuo's Windwall

I think that Riot should consider changing Yasuo's W into a 2/3 charges ability that would have the wideness of his Q or maybe a bit wider The reason why i think this would be a reasonable change to do is because i think his Windwall is a bit too strong and can, in some situations, completely deny a full team combo (Braum R, Sejuani R, Irelia R, in a way, etc.) and not in a fun and skillful way, of course you need the reflexes to block such abilities, but with such a wide wall and being it a non-ultimate skin, i think it is a bit unbalanced and in a way a joykiller (it's a game, you should be having fun) And to finish off, I'd like to say that im NOT a Yasuo hater, i actually play him a lot, so you should be Reading this not only from the enemy's perspective but also from the Yasuo's one aswell GLHF!

I've always thought it should either get a health bar OR only stay around for 1 second.

The funniest/saddest thing you can see in legue is MissFortune ulting and Yasuo windwalling infront of her XD

of course you need the reflexes to block such abilities,

Unless they are right on top of you or use summoner 4 so that they can animation cancel, it doesn't require that much brain power to just w lets say a jinx ult and also because the windwall doesn't have an activation delay it just blocks the moment you press W

Yours is the first suggestion I'd give a try in the PTR to see if it works.

u probably want what Riot originally wanted to give him a W that would cause him to do a short horizontal slash that would destroy any projectiles that it touched. I think many would agree that this would be better for everyone.

they should also change his passive shield to only proc if he casts an ability within 0.75 sec of getting hit by an ability

I agree with all of this wind wall stuff. That wind wall needs tinkering hard.

Maybe make his ultimate deal damage per second, lasts as long as the opponent is in the air, But it adds a small amount of airtime(For minimum damage). So you can activate it while they are going up and keep dealing damage until they hit the ground? Reward good reflexes, improve player skill, And make him still deal damage without making him OP?

Just posting the list of accumulated Rule and Code breaks that Yasuo has written into his mechanics

all of these combined (and a few on their own) make Wind Wall seem like nothing more harmful than a lv 1 janna AA
