My guess is that Riot's planned rune overhaul and fighter/tankydps overhaul will dramatically change the way solo lanes are played and impact Yasuo's as well as other softer fighters' ability to lane.

Consider how stark of a contrast Zed's effectiveness was before preseason 3 and S3 proper's changes. Lower the cost of raw AD, increase the cost of flat armor, make flat penetration and multiplicative penetration work better, and create awesome anti-defense items like BC and Bork.
