Hey Planters, ATM i am nerding yasuo for the champion mastery thing. With this new tank meta i have seen the assassin role with yasuo not viable, because oyu get cc'ed to death. Im pretty much buying tenacity boots every game along with portal, (z'zrot??), with gives armor, mr, hp regen and speed at any turret, even dead ones, with shiv, trin force, and ie, i get just enough crit chance for 100%. Since nerfs to IE, i couldnt have 5% crit runes, cuz that wouldnt hit 100. So pretty much i play yasuo as a bruiser, and thats also the only way i can play him without dying isntantly. Also, the sheen proc on trin force will always be there on a q, with the exact minimum cooldown and cast time on q being 1.51, a 100th of a second over trin force cd. So if i get all those items, i have about 2500-3000 hp, 150 armor and mr, then an ok dmg, ranging around 500-600 crits on minions. That works fine, but also means i cant instakill. You have to play yasuo skillfully and be able to wind wall point blank skill shots. Still working on that one. To counter yasuo, you just need a nasus slow, a stun from annie, or pure dmg from a mid, its hard to survive without proper wardage, because often an enemy runs to an ally and together kill you. So even though yasuo isnt over/underpowered, simlar to kalista he needs good cooperation from team to work out well.

Cheers,
