yeah on the note of yas going mid, he doesnt really have an escape as his dash can only be used offensively so when you're in a long lane, like top, you're more easily ganked. Mid lane gives a realtively large amount of safety and also tends to feature champions that scale well with level  for easier powerspikes and more effective roaming as well as objective control. If a maokai roams at you from mid while you're doing dragon you're not going to think much of it. However, if a katarina does the same thing you're more likely to run since kat has a higher chance of killing you. Also, yas's windwall blocks projectiles which are found more commonly in the mid lane than top. you're arguement about riven feels like nonsense. "he has to play his cards perfectly"...against riven that's like every champion. Only champions that might not apply to would be the lane bully darius and maybe garen as there kits are so simple its hard to misplay. outside of that you can probably outplay her with top aatrox, cass, cho, ekko?, the list kinda goes on since the word outplay is in it. Not saying he's a bad top just that there's no "special" reason to play him top out side of outplay potential.
