#Should Yasuo be nerfed? If yes why so?

#

if he's against like 4 ranged then it creates a polarizing threat range for him

#

because he can contest from long range with windwall and can DPS in close range but is kind of sucky at midrange

#

and he's sort of meant to be an ADC counter as he's a melee carry who spikes earlier than them anyway

#

altho i think windwall should also have collision like anivia wall

#

gets very confusing when he can just stand in the middle of it and you can't gauge whether your spell will hit him or not

little meadow
#

I think that some points of yasuo should be nerf like his passive, his passive creats a sheild that u poke and can't do much about, and his r i think is fine but i just don't like it when it comes to every single kncok up champ, like ailstar,but that is just my personal belief about yasuo

charred cradle
#

like bottom 5 level 1 hp

#

and his armor sucks ass too

#

so assassins can still burst him down if they get the first strike

quick panther
#

ppl just hate yasuo when their team comp sucks

#

all u need is to draft some cc and burst him down it really is not that difficult.

#

dont spam all of ur abilities into a windwall

#

his windwall is annoying but you can play around it, there are many more champions with less counterplay than him who deserve harder nerfs

#

Yasuo is fine, his interaction with lethal tempo should be removed altogether.

celest stirrup
#

if anything he needs a buff

deep pelican
#

No

warm girder
#

if you walk up to far he just e's at the wave to get to u then e's u when ur almost out of range

plain sluice
#

he is a hypercarry scales like an adc

#

And he can also come back when behind

#

Better than most champs with 1-2 item powerspikes

charred cradle
#

just need more reliance as adc compared to yasuo who sololanes

#

and often has better neutral in lane

warm girder
#

yasuo falls off

#

past lane he's not that good unless he has a knockup champ / comp

charred cradle
#

if he gets the chance to dps

safe phoenix
#

Yasuo have a IE power spike at 2 items when adc have their IE power spike at 3

hollow silo
#

I mean I used to complain about yas but I think the state hes in rn is very fair I dable in the champ and play against it and am having fun both ways

#

No

frail storm
wicked falcon
#

absolutely not. extremely easy to counterplay, extremely high skill ceiling, absolute feast or famine champ. there's a night and day difference between the average yasuo and a GOOD one.

#

not real

#

must be an npc

#

because thats like saying malzahar passive is op

#

💀

#

stupid ass

stray lily
#

The only dumb things about yas are the small things - R doesn't even need to actually be "aimed" its just a click if anyone is in the range, how his R range is literally like half the fucking map, and how it will place him out of tower range for... some reason

#

other than that i dont really have a problem with the champ

#

windwall is definitely stupid at times though

charred cradle
warm girder
#

normally a good yasuo would knockup into aa eq (q if he can't e them) then r

#

at rank 1 his r does more dmg than a q but once he hits 2 items / lvl 11 his q does more than his r so it's mostly a shield/passive reset and the knockup duration for the keyblade or other combos

charred cradle
warm girder
#

it's an amazing all in tool

#

especially at 6

#

yasuo falls off after laning phase because he can't get his ult off

#

(if he doesn't have a knockup comp or very fed)

charred cradle
#

assassins have way better all in tools than him

#

and most mages won't let just let him all in them unless they are oom

#

talon won't let yasuo ult him

#

zed can ult the tornado q

#

qiyana can stun him first before he gets q3

warm girder
#

they're all skill matchups

#

yasuo vs qi is yasuo favored

charred cradle
#

it doesnt change that assassins have a much better spike than him in lane

warm girder
#

zed's q is blocked by yasuo's w and yasuo can dodge them easily with e

charred cradle
#

because it's a burst assassin vs a melee carry who uses DPS

#

yes yasuo can windwall all of these

#

but any good assassin player will bait that out first with their poke tools

warm girder
#

if zed ever uses w badly yasuo just kills him if he doesn't play safe for the cd

charred cradle
#

no shit

#

and if yasuo just facetanks WEQ then zed kills him

warm girder
#

skill matchup :)

#

that ones more even than the other 2

#

but overall i think yasuo's in a fine spot atm

charred cradle
#

it's a melee carry with distinct strengths and weaknesses

warm girder
#

if they nerf yone they nerf him and if they buff him they buff yone

tranquil crane
#

rlly never see anything else

warm girder
#

well yeah but if he doesn't have a knockup

#

he falls off

tranquil crane
#

ya

marsh carbon
#

nah hes like D teir at high elo lol

ebon pebble
#

no he is only playable with a zac or a diana and is useless in every other team comp

polar swallow
#

Yasuo would be fine imo if you removed win wall and replaced it with something else. What that something else is idk.

celest stirrup
#

silly take

muted escarp
#

crazy that ppl talk about yasuo when yone exists

celest stirrup
#

I'd rather have Yone to be nerfed

#

Way easier to play than Yasuo

#

More damage

#

Champion's just too much to deal with

old tendon
#

yasuo is not a problem

safe phoenix
celest stirrup
#

yone can be countered so easily

muted escarp
#

More easily than yasuo ? I don't agree , overall yone the is better at everything

celest stirrup
#

let’s nerf yasuo guys

stark trail
#

also fix when he can ult while cc

topaz verge
#

Idk but Lethal tempo melee nerf when, its not cool rune at all for melee champs

safe phoenix
#

if you know how to take short trade it's kinda useless rune

heady agate
#

no not really

#

yasuo is kinda bad rn honestly

#

the thing about yasuo is that hes broken when he gets ahead, but itseasy to prevent that

slender terrace
#

Winning team is whichever team doesn't have Yasuo

plush pumice
#

Even if he’s not broken I still late laning against the fucker

safe phoenix
#

he got 3 up in a row and durability was benefit for him

#

he his good in skilled hand

#

that's all

heady agate
#

yeah

#

he is good if the playercan use him

#

or if the enemies dont understand how to handle him

sly shadow
#

I just don’t think he’s healthy

#

Everything about him is very controversial

plush pumice
#

I only hate him cuz trading in lane is so damn impossible with bone plating and passive

#

And of course wind wall when I’m a fed adc so I become useless

sly shadow
#

Yeah

#

He has a lot of cheese as well with airborne follow ups and so much healing when doing it right

#

But he can be countered and outplayed if you know how

#

I just don’t think it’s healthy for him to be either 20/0 or 0/20 based on the enemies (most of the time)

heady agate
#

yeah

#

yasuo isnt healthy for the game

#

but other champs are way worse in that way

plush pumice
#

(Fiora)

celest stirrup
#

Qiyana laughs from distance

sly shadow
#

Community wise I think he’s worse

plush pumice
#

I think the only reason qiyana isn’t as hates is because she takes some level of skill to be good at

#

Def hated in high elo

#

Tho

slender terrace
#

Why not just build anti heal vs Yasuo

#

Since he gets second wind and shieldbow

plush pumice
#

He usually goes bone plating

celest stirrup
plush pumice
#

I mean I imagine perma invis is, with an amazing ult that can easily stun the entire enemy team

#

With high dmg

plush pumice
#

Late game her cooldowns are low enough where 3 seconds of invisibility is enough for her to just WQ again

stark trail
#

yeah qiyana i see now

#

qiyana just needs to learn the super secret chinese combos that instantly win u the game but they are actually impossible to pull up

plush pumice
#

I mean with enough games down her main combo isn’t that hard

#

It’s just ult, prowlers, Q W E Q

stark trail
#

i dont mean the main one

#

i mean the weir chinese combos that u cant even see her never

sly shadow
#

I thought she was very hard the first time i tried her because finger avatar BS which automatically makes me less annoyed if I get stomped by a Qi

celest stirrup
celest stirrup
stark trail
#

cuz yasuo has way more base stats

celest stirrup
stark trail
#

he doesnt heal as much is that simple

sly shadow
#

its your own fault if you get hit by a Q3 with it but i cant think of a lot of champions who have that much healthsteal

I play a loooot of Yasuo and i hear people complain that he is too strong and he needs to be nerfed to the ground. I can say that i disagree cause if he dosen't win early and he is till trash pre late game he cannot come back at all.

coarse ridge
#

calling bullshit on your claims. people dislike windwall. that's it.

open light
#

Windwall is just a terribly designed skill that should be reworked/removed, other than that Yasuo is just a bad and underpowered champ

frail storm
#

No

zenith fog
#

People who call him broken dont know that he has W per 20 sec I guess

errant rover
#

No, you should learn how to play against a yasuo.

#

Yasuo is strong on some points but the main reason you can lose to one is by not having the knowledge necessary to survive him

zenith fog
#

Ofc

#

i just hate how even behind he is able to beat anyone with just a mythic

#

thats on me if i lose to him but the fact he can still pull it off almost every match doesnt sit right to me

fallow juniper
#

how is windwall broken

marsh carbon
#

i dont believe. hes only strong in low elos

tawdry niche
#

E is fuckin umtaken skill

safe phoenix
#

Yasuo is strong but not enough to get nerfed

charred cradle
#

'YI COMES BACK WITH ONE ITEM WTFFFFFF'

plush pumice
#

as an adc player, wind wall is just soo awful to face, but then again Gwen's w is worst to face

safe phoenix
novel relic
#

i may be biased as a yasuo main but a lot of the people i see complaining about yasuo just don't know how to play against him

#

they'll press r at the most predictable time when i have windwall up and think it's broken

safe phoenix
#

just in some matchup Yasuo is just boring to face

charred cradle
#

the champion is garbage as a DPS in lategame when marksmen do the same thing from 5x his range

#

while arguably dealing even more than him

safe phoenix
#

and if he get close enough he win most of the time

charred cradle
#

yasuo doesn't have minions to spam dashes at baron/dragon pits and his windwall is still able to be played around

#

he only really gets the jump if he has setup (either you let him hit your team to get tornado or his tank engaged)

safe phoenix
#

he isn't a frontlaner he need to someone to engage for him

#

idk where's the problem

charred cradle
#

now im confused if you're agreeing or disagreeing

stray oxide
#

well thats why wukong malphite zac and many other champions were created

charred cradle
#

im just saying the champion isnt the lategame teamfight god he is when ranged marksmen exist who do that job with much less difficulty

charred cradle
#

and hes an early focused melee carry who still has weaknesses in that early game

safe phoenix
#

but he have better early than most of the marksmen

#

and he still have some outplay option in late

charred cradle
#

again good

stray oxide
#

what we learn from this discussion :
سخيخ يخذنصنص ذنيني بنسن

charred cradle
#

if a melee champ was worse than scaling ranged champions who do the same job as him then he would be fucking garbage

stray oxide
#

jk dont play yasuo

charred cradle
#

marksmen are worse in the early game compared to melee champions because they are meant to be scaling hypercarries in 5v5s where they just spam crits to death

charred cradle
#

yasuo is supposed to be this idea of a scaling hypercarry who spikes way earlier but to compensate for this he is melee

#

with way worse defensive stats than other melee champions

#

bruisers have way more health/resists at 2 items compared to yasuo

#

but yasuos earlier spike means hes shittier in lategame

#

because he's a melee champ in a 5v5

#

which means he must be providing something and all he provides is damage

#

guess what other class does the same thing

#

marksmen

#

and they do it from way longer range than him

safe phoenix
#

Yes he is supposed to snowball on his power spike else he fall behind

charred cradle
#

and they also aren't handicapped by the crit modifier yasuo gets

safe phoenix
#

tbh idk were you are going, what did I said wrong for you ?

charred cradle
#

im just saying

#

yasuo isnt mega broken

#

lmao

safe phoenix
#

ok xD

#

I already know that

charred cradle
#

so for people to say 'PLEASE NERF YASUO HE IS OP'

#

i will bet 100 usd that person is bronze/silver

#

because the champ is more one dimensional than tryndamere

craggy jungle
#

to beat a yasuo, just let him push, abuse his w cd and avoid his tornado as much as possible

celest stirrup
#

i just hate his w

#

he’s not really that bad

#

just annoying

tranquil crane
#

windwall should just be reworked to not be dogshit useless vs some champs while being able to completely negate others

#

rly simple

plush pumice
#

Atleast his W isn’t Gwen W at the end of day

tranquil crane
craggy jungle
#

yasuo needs his windwall

#

hes too squishy

tranquil crane
#

the variance shouldnt be so high on it

craggy jungle
#

variance

tranquil crane
#

its either useless or broken depending who hes fighting

craggy jungle
#

some melee champs have range abilities

#

take zed for example so no

#

also if you play yasuo top you're kinda trolling

tranquil crane
#

yes and its great vs zed

#

i didnt say thats based on melee vs ranged strictly

#

just if it lets him neuter the champ

craggy jungle
#

i dont think it needs to be reworked

warm girder
#

yasuos fine he’s a lane bully that falls off later on if he doesn’t have team picked for him

craggy jungle
#

hes not a lane bully

warm girder
#

he is

craggy jungle
#

how

warm girder
#

he can constantly fight take good trades and is heavily favored in lane because he’s able to stack q and kite with e

#

without those he falls off dramatically in terms of pressure

#

yone is a more scaling version whos aggressive every e cd while yasuo is a lane bully more early game champ with more skill expression

craggy jungle
#

ok

plush pumice
craggy jungle
#

i mean i didnt really want to argue with him so i said ok

plush pumice
#

I mean When I face him mid im playing Syndra leblanc so I don’t mind

#

When I play against him as Zoe tho…

craggy jungle
#

syndra is easy

plush pumice
#

I gotta get creative

craggy jungle
#

you can w her whole kit

plush pumice
#

I mean can’t W her Q right?

craggy jungle
#

true

plush pumice
#

Zoe just needs to be more creative with angles

#

And she can play around wind walk

#

Matchup is still hell tho

craggy jungle
#

yea

#

thats skill matchup

#

her e is her strongest ability in her kit

safe phoenix
#

imo the only problem with wind wall is that the hitbox is just kinda bugged

craggy jungle
#

wdym

plush pumice
craggy jungle
#

i say its her strongest ability because once she hits an e on you, she does huge damage

#

its like ahri's charm

safe phoenix
#

sometimes spell go through the wall for no reason

craggy jungle
#

no

#

no they dont

#

ive windwall so many abilities

#

none went thru my windwall

safe phoenix
#

no need to search a lot

craggy jungle
#

no

safe phoenix
#

sometimes you launch spell near the wall and it hit it

#

it work in the 2 way

#

but I guess it's riot hitbox

#

used to it
