I don't get how people would build a champ wrong as you describe it. If you mean people build Bloodthirster on Jinx instead of Blade of the Ruined King, or otherwise (just an example), then you are wrong by saying one is better than the other, as both are strong. I could even go Tri-force + muramana + Black Cleaver on Ashe. It isn't the best build for sure, but in theory it deals a heck of damage, and that's why you don't see people build it. The point is, I don't see how you would build either of these champs wrong, since they have pretty standard building paths.

I also think you might have picked the wrong champs for your examples, or you are wrong. Jinx was one of the champs that was considered (and I kinda agree) really, really strong on release, not to say OP, and still is a really strong pick. People still play her a lot, and she has a standard ADC building path. Her skillset and mechanics are even not that complex and don't require that much pre-study. The only thing that you need to know is how to place her E, which is mostly common sence based.

Yasuo is a difficult champion to play, but how exactly did people you play with not find out Statikk Shiv is a really strong item? Because 9/10 times I play with a Yasuo in my game he rushes it, and the other time he goes Blade of the Ruined king first. I believe it's even a essential item in the shop. The only real reason people think Yasuo's weak is because he's really hard to play and requires really good timing and precision to be useful in a fight. The problem is a lot of people are not able to play him so that they are able to dive a backline and get out without dying, which is what he should do.

No offence, but I think you're wrong. Jinx is threated like 'just another ADC' because she is just another ADC, and some people think she's weak because she got nerfed in the patch after her release while in fact she was too strong on release. She's fine now. She isn't like Corki, Ezreal or Urgot, that are 'special' ADC's that rely more heavily on abilities and have special build paths. The reason not to play Yasuo isn't because he's weak and people don't build him properly, but he's really hard to play and he's a melee ADC's. The meta doesn't really favor melee ADC's right now.
