Yasuo/Development

Yasuo, the Unforgiven, revealed
BY RIOTWENCESLAUS

''Yasuo dashes to solemn victory, harnessing the raw power of the wind to elevate his unmatched elemental swordsmanship. A former member of an Ionian martial school and the only student to have mastered a legendary wind technique, Yasuo now lives a tempestuous life, drifting through Runeterra as he hunts the true killer of the Ionian elder he was sworn to protect.''

Passive= Intent: Yasuo's critical strike chance is doubled.
 * Way of the Wanderer

''Resolve: Yasuo gains Flow as he moves – the faster he moves, the faster his Flow meter fills. When full, Yasuo activates a brief shield after taking damage from enemy champions or monsters.''

''Yasuo thrusts forward with his sword, damaging all enemies in a line. Successfully landing Steel Tempest grants Yasuo Gathering Storm stacks for a short period. The third stack of Gathering Storm causes Steel Tempest to send out a whirlwind that travels in a line and sends all enemies caught Airborne. If Yasuo casts Steel Tempest during Sweeping Blade, the ability strikes all enemies immediately around him.''
 * -|Q=
 * Steel Tempest

Passive: Dashing replenishes Yasuo's Flow faster.
 * -|W=
 * Wind Wall

''Active: Yasuo creates a wall of wind that slowly drifts forward for a few seconds. The wall blocks all enemy projectiles.''

''Yasuo dashes a fixed distance through an enemy, dealing damage and marking them briefly. If Yasuo uses Sweeping Blade multiple times in succession, the ability deals extra damage up to a cap. Yasuo cannot use Sweeping Blade on an enemy that's already been marked.''
 * -|E=
 * Sweeping Blade

''Yasuo teleports to a nearby Airborne enemy champion, briefly suspending them and all surrounding Airborne enemies mid-air as he damages them. Once he lands, Yasuo gains significant armor penetration against his enemy's bonus armor for an extended period of time.''

 * Last Breath



PROJECT: Yasuo is online
By Riot Paradox

Four intruders detected. PROJECT: Yasuo activated.

Yasuo awakens from stasis, sentry data downloaded to his memory banks. He draws his modified katana as the incursion approaches his position, intent on their objective.

Initiate Last Breath protocol.

Yasuo dashes at the intruders, eviscerating the point man before charging towards the rest. Plunging into them, he whirls his sword, hacking at all three before diving away. His foes reply with a barrage of fire, but Yasuo’s ready—with a flick of his sword, he generates a nano-barrier to block their onslaught. He turns to them as the wall fades. Yasuo slashes his katana, releasing an energy surge that hurls the intruders into the air. Leaping into their midst, he carves through all three as they reach their apex.

He lands lightly on his feet, the intruders raining down around him. His visor pulls back to reveal an emotionless guise. The mask of a man with nothing inside.

Intruders eliminated.
