Like win rates tell something really important about champions. The fact win rates are commonly used to talk about champions' balance doesn't mean they are perfect indicators of champions' actual strength.

Win rates are team based and you know, because it happens quite often, you can win a match with a terrible performance, like winning a game with a 5/10/5 score. You can easily play the weakest champion in the League and still win if your team mates are playing strong champions, if your team mates are more skilled than the opponents, if one of the opponents disconnects or goes afk, etc.

Win rates don't tell everything about a champion, and in the case of Yasuo, i see he has a 50% win rate and a good 2.1% pick rate.

Poppy has a 56% win rate: does this mean she's stronger than Yasuo? I don't really think so: in fact she has a 0.1% pick rate. Urgot has a 61% win rate: does he need to be nerfed into oblivion? You know it's not like this. 0.1% pick rate, in fact.
