[2020] I'm completely convinced that every single Yasuo player is actually just one collective hive mind.

I wanted to disagree, but I main Yasuo and yellow is legitimately my favorite color. Uh oh.

Muted.

....

I'm sorry I couldn't control it

In all honesty I would be 100% open to seeing it maybe have like a healthbar & be destructible or something, or maybe do reduced damage like Braum's ult but it's hard to say how well that would actually work in practice.

His passive is also something that if they reworked it down the line i'd be very open to because IMO it's just not that interesting

I don't agree entirely with that, my understanding is that Yasuo was designed with this idea of "strike, parry, dash" playstyle in mind and given low base HP to compensate. His passive shield ends up somewhat being a balancing mechanism to keep him from getting totally rekt in certain match-ups and be able to deal with trades in lane, but I still feel it could be a bit more interesting than "walk around til it charges up" (I do enjoy it on his ult tho?)

Same with his Windwall, just needs some way to deal with trade / poke since he doesn't have healing or survivability (outside the mostly random-feeling passive) built into his kit.

Still like I said I'd be super open to trying out some changes to make it feel less frustrating to deal with.

Maybe Fiora's riposte is a closer comparison than Irelia's W, which is another variation on the theme of parrying.

That being said I personally feel going with the Windwall as the "wind magic" interpretation of that idea was a good call that is also distinctly different from Irelia or Fiora. I don't feel that fundamentally changing that identity is necessarily the correct way forward, however I am super open to some ways to adjust it to feel more fair (shorter duration and shorter CD? Destructible? Has a cost like 50% flow? Having a start-up animation delay would severly hurt how the move is used but maybe something like a cost could at least be a fair warning?)

Funny how our tastes work?

I just really like it idk! It's vibrant and weird and I just think it's a great color. I always go for yellow alt costumes for every character in every game I play

Now I'll agree that yellow doesn't always work in every shade and with every color combination but like the TD yellow Yasuo skin is 100% perfection in my eyes for instance

Something I've considered too ala Genji that I thing could be super interesting!!! The question is tho would players hate that more than current Windwall in practice?
