>>120721494I meant uisng buzzwords.
I know other champs get compensations too, it's just htta his is insane as far as gold goes. He gets double value out of his Crit, and that is quite literally FREE.
To the rest of the stuff you said. I disagree. Yi and Trynd have sustai, but Yasuo just simply doesn't get hit to start with because of Way of the Traveler. And while he IS worse off at dueling later, sicne 100% crit with two items he can usually assfuck Yi and Trynd 1 on 1 (unless you REALLY wantot pretend you will stand around and take Trynd's ult head on).
Your arguments apply to 1 v 1, that's all well and dandly, but jax and trynd can't fucking dumpster the backline just because they happeend to have a Malph on the enemy team and there was a Yasuo a screen away.
His risk-to-reward is stupid in how little rish he has to take for his rewards, provided there is any synergy with his ult. Also, how fucking dare you say that he has no poke when that's literally what his Q is? >just dodge it! doesn't hold water as an argument.
He hits his power spike really early, almost as early as Jax, however, you also gloss over the fact that Yasuo's farming in lane is just straight up better than any of the mentioned (Yi farms the jungle, hence less gold and XP).
His weaknesses do exists, but they are smalled than you make them out to be, just as I am probably bised against him. Overall, he's a champion filledwith "absolutes" - 100% crit, dash to targets with almost no cooldown as long as fresh targets arive, defense mechanism that will nullify all attacks of one kind, and be completely worthless against others, and lastly an "ult", that most of the time isn't more than merely him pressing R off someone eles play; and that is why I concider him cancer.
Also, why do you people keep taking world's pick rate as a marker of something being cancer or not?
