Burst melee and Rumble don't exactly belong in the same sentence sorry, he is a sustained aoe damage dealer that is almost completely reliant on his ults damage over time the more he gets everything else nerfed, anyway that wasn't my main point, moving on.

Yasuo seems like the kind of champion that when played well is going to destroy everything that was once breathing, the double crits on his passive means that his power will spike very quickly, and a lot of crit items also grant attack speed lowering the cooldown time on his Q, his snowball potential is insane, but he is countered really hard by early aggresion keeping him from farming. Anyone that has a tank steroid, a gapcloser, or decently ranged, targetted poke or CC will keep him from being a problem, I see champions like Pantheon and Ryze as a huge problem for him.

I do agree that a high skill cap means that the good players and the decent players are in a totally different league, pardon the pun, but mechanically he seems like a strange bruiser assassin. Overall I am pretty excited for him to come to the live servers, but I have my doubts about him being a part of the competetive scene.
