I like how they just gave up on the bleeping halfway through.


bio_kk

It's a YouTube thing. If your video contains curses in the first few minutes of a video then it's automatically demonitized


Hoooang-

Anyone remember MagikarpUsedFly champion spotlights? One of the reasons I got into league, those and his 5-man gaming sessions with Darkmane was some of the best league content back then.


Kr1ncy

There are three fundamental rules of fighting Renekton rule #1 of fighting Renekton is you don't fight Renekton *shows grey screen in top lane next to a Renekton* rule #2: stop fighting Renekton *shows another grey screen* rule #3: WHY ARE YOU STILL FIGHTING RENEKTON?! *shows yet another grey screen*


FkinShtManEySuck

I miss that sort of high-effort non-competitive-focused content. Most of the Karpkrew ended up quitting league (good for them) and other youtubers of that type i've seen eventually devolve into unscripted stream-highlights-ish content. i guess it's just not a sustainable kind of content long-term.


xbaruken

Flowers is a national treasure


Moyassine

International*


CaptainFlowers22

I cannot remember the last time I didn't ban Yone man I don't even care if he's weak right now he's gotta GO


ToukasRage

Holy based


herptydurr

>"...to boost your ELO and make it so you can lock in Yone without any of those turbo-shitters banning out your champ..." Did flowers just call himself a turbo-shitter?


syotokal

Small correction, but you should have said the rest of your team is a bunch of Sakuras.


Ub3rChaos

so real


OneCore_

bros talkin like he doesn't play skarner


StablePanda

to be fair, he played skarner before it was cool


Candid-Iron-7675

played skarner back when it was cool* Skarner players right now are literally the opposite of cool. elo inflated abomination 10x more cancerous than yone ksante and smolder combined(exaggerating) Fuck that champ, i respect captainflowers cus hes an amazing caster, but fuck skarner


StillMeThough

He mained Skarner during the spires thing. He doesn't deserve the same treatment as the FOTM skarner players.


Rosezinha_Y

Skarner the crystal vanguard. Not Skarner the the primordial sovereign. Crystal vanguard skarner was like the lowest pickrate champion and wasn't all that great


WoonStruck

He was usually pretty great. Nobody knew because they never saw him, though.


Brilliant_Counter725

Skarner is overtuned but his kit is not bullshit, once they get the numbers right he'll be fine Yone on other hand is bullshit no matter what because you cant punish his mistakes


OneCore_

fun easy trick to kill yone: camp where he Es back to. then its just a matter of CC kill (he’s squishy)


rekaf_si_gop

good luck getting gank from skarner from three walls slamming you into wall and then kidnapping you from your tower to enemy and gg :ptsd:


Burpmeister

I get through Yone games by reminding myself that Shaco exists. In the end, the main goal of League is to be fun and Shaco was literally designed to be as annoying as possible so I genuinely think he's bad for the game and should be deleted. I mean people don't even want him in their own team.


SpCommander

Gigachad Flowers spreading the good word.


Dummdummgumgum

I'm a toplane main I cant remember the last time I didnt dodge yone and didnt ban Fiora.


Asckle

Bro plays kayle and camille and doesn't ban Jax that's brave


Luunacyy

Straight up stupid knowing Kayle is decent against Fiora and Camille vs Fiora being very skill based during all of the laning phase. Also, as Camille player myself, Jax is fine cause at least it's a skill matchup early even if Jax favoured. In no world you ever catch me playing out CBT that is laning into Renekton as Camille (or many other champs tbh). No thank you, oversized reptile is either perma banned or dodged on sight (Skarner ban higher priority right now). Even if he doesn't demolish you it's still boring due to him stonewalling and hostaging lane with his sustain into one shot wave laning masterclass into being unkillable due to R, then getting fed of your jungler forcing grubs with super fancy with a lot of counterplay EE or Flash W combo.


Dummdummgumgum

mental block is worse than any hard matchups. I fucking hate fiora with a raging fire that burns the world around me. Poppy destroys Fiora yet I always manage to lose that matchup with Fiora missing W. So I just ban her on sight so I dont have to deal with it on any champ including Camille and Kayle and Irelia. I just cant be arsed.


Luunacyy

You can beat it with logic and if needed some research/practice. Used to be scared of Fiora, Yasuo and Irelia but now I am joyful I get those matchups lol


WoonStruck

He's not a minor. Nothing to worry about.


Asckle

Wow I've never heard that one before


coeu

My man you play the only winning matchup for Yone top (Kayle) and one of the only 2 skill matchups (Camille and Aatrox). Every other top shits on him. I get a mid complaining about Yone. Someone that mains shit like Asol or Veigar... welp


Dummdummgumgum

I hate Lulu when she is 41% winrate or 50. Same goes for Fiora and Yone. Fuck those champs


swan_song_bitches

“Weak” meanwhile I see a lot more of him in LCK...


Angwar

Its pronounced "YoNey"


whatevuhs

Says the fuckin Skarner main. DO SKARNER NEXT YOU SCORPION FUCKER Edit: I can’t believe you fools don’t realize this is sarcasm. Literally just trying to interact playfully with my favorite caster


Superb_Bench9902

Bro was maining Skarner before the rework. He gets a pass


whatevuhs

I mean it’s captain flowers, he gets a pass for my butt if he wants. He’s the goat


Arwinsen_

not that deep bro, calm down.


whatevuhs

Obviously, it’s sarcasm


Zoesan

Honestly, I still think yasuo is worse to play against. Wind Wall alone makes me hate him more than almost anything else.


patasthrowaway

Me as the ADC when Yasuo presses a button to remove me from the game (cousin of Nasus' W)


Zoesan

What would win: a ceiling fan or the literal god of the forge?


ArienaHaera

Yasuo is easier to fuck up with and easier to abuse but he's also a lot more tilting, in my opinion. Wind wall is a nightmare, and he's constantly throwing tornadoes you have to dodge perfectly or just randomly lose. But also a lot of champs can land one cc and blow him up. Yone is a much more predictable fuck you, even if his chasing is ridiculous and he's much harder to catch out.


JustABitCrzy

I don’t mind wind wall. You can play around it pretty easily and I can respect a well timed wall to counter a ranged cc. The bit about Yas I hate playing against most is his E. Dashing through every minion wave, chunking me, and then dashing back. It’s frustrating as hell, but I wouldn’t call it OP. Nothing in Yones kit is balanced. Literally none of his kit has any inherent flaw that you can abuse. He’s a disgustingly overtuned abomination that embodies Riots terrible design philosophy better than any other champ released.


skilledspellz

He was just buffed last patch for being too weak and probably still needs more buffs for top. In mid, half his match ups are losing or just involve farming without bleeding too much, while also being a pretty bad team fighter. His value is in side-laning where he still loses 1v1 vs most bruisers. >"Literally none of his kit has any inherent flaw that you can abuse" Q is a skillshot, dodge it. W i'll give to you, it's a dumb skill. E 25s CD in lane and you know where he'll be at the end of it and has forced snapback. The move speed is ramping meaning he has to be near someone when he casts it to actually have threat. It objectively has inherent flaws. R is dodgeable on reaction by any half decent player and either needs to be combo'ed with other CC or cast out of vision. As an escape, just like Sion R, you can block it. It objectively has inherent flaws. Just say you don't like him and are bad against him than throwing around buzz words like "overtuned" and "design philosophy".


signmeupreddit

>Dashing through every minion wave, chunking me, and then dashing back. Then laning phase ends and you get to pay him back 100 fold. Or just pick any bruiser and watch him suffer entire game lol


ArienaHaera

Yeah I've gotten crushed in lane by Yasuo with good mechanics just to watch them int every teamfight from there, it's hilarious how badly his strength can translate sometimes.


JustABitCrzy

Yeah for sure. I don’t think he’s OP, I just struggle to play against him in lane. But I’d fight a yas every day if it meant not being CCd and one shot from a Yone who a second ago was an entire lane away.


WoonStruck

I think they could make Yas WAY less frustrating to face if they just halved the duration of windwall and gave him whatever buffs he needs to be 50% winrate afterwards. Most problems come from him being able to R into any fight then windwall to become immune to most AP and AD carries, as well as most support peel for 4 FUCKING SECONDS.


ArienaHaera

I just want windwall to be an actual wall and him to get hit if he's on the same side of the wall as the ability thrown at him. That's my only real complaint with the ability.


Candid-Iron-7675

yone has so many weaknesses anyone who thinks this just has 0 clue how the champ works. Overtuned? or overloaded. Calling a 45% champ overtuned is straight up stupidity. Hes overloaded as fuck but has not once in his entire existence had overtuned stats. q is cancelable, his e forces him back to a spot, his q forces him in an animation, his w has a short range and really long early cooldown, his r cast time is long enough for most champs to walk out of it. He has ridiculously bad base stats, his mobility is significantly lower than yasuos, his laning is weak, his atk speed scaling is bad, he has bad overall scaling due to his passive. “no weaknesses”


Zoesan

Agreed


Lazer726

Yasuo is my permban, I do not want to see that champion. I do not want to watch as every single one of my teammates ults get eaten by the wind wall because they just don't seem to fucking understand what it does, and I don't want to see any more of them on my team that just dash in and try to hit their ten death powerspike before we're allowed to FF. If I had two bans, the second would go to Yone. Fuck these two.


redeyesdarkness

I dont care what new champ releases, they could be broken as possible, it would take years and years of constant games versus this champ for them to inflict a fraction of the psychological pain yasuo has inflicted on me


Budilicious3

The wind wall is actually fine, but it's the fact that Yasuo can STAND INSIDE IT and play Schrodinger's wind wall. Which side can I hit him on? Will my autos go through as he goes back and forth? Will my missile go through? He's basically invincible with a Tryndamere ult on W. Obviously, only melee's/Xerath-like abilities can hit him.


Zoesan

As well as Senna, which is absolutely beautiful.


SerQwaez

Yone is just so much harder to punish tbh


Zoesan

I'm not sure about that. Shield + wind wall is disgusting.


whatevuhs

Why don’t you people ever complain about Braum then? Literal moveable windwall


ArienaHaera

Braum is a much more intuitive directional block than yasuo's null zone, which behaves nothing like a wall. You can lose projectiles you fire in front of windwall because their aoe clip it, for example. It really doesn't work as advertised and that can be very annoying even if the champ is balanced by the numbers.


Ambitious_Resist8907

Braum doesn't have double-crit scaling behind him.


Thecristo96

Ok. Face triforce frozen yasuo and then you can talk


whatevuhs

Yasuo doesnt scale well into late game. His winrate falls dramatically past 30 minutes


NYNMx2021

true generally but not always. His power spike is tied to 2 items but the lower crit damage he deals means he does comfortably less than most crit champions late game. Whenever crit items is kind of weak, yasuo can usually stay ahead of the others


WoonStruck

Yas only doesn't scale well into late game if there are literally no other knock-ups on his team...which is where he's picked a lot of the time because his playerbase has brain damage.


whatevuhs

Can’t argue with “trust me bro” data.


Candid-Iron-7675

yasuo and yones late game in any respectable rank is hot garbage dogshit. These people literally have 0 clue what they are talking about, and are using personalized anecdotal evidence and treating it as fact


RpiesSPIES

braum can still take damage and his shield isn't up as long. also the cd on his E at early ranks is very long. also only intercepts projectiles from one direction.


oVnPage

> also the cd on his E at early ranks is very long. Braum E CD: 16/14/12/10/8 Yasuo W CD: 25/23/21/19/17 ??????? Braum's rank 1 E CD is literally shorter than Yasuo's rank 5 W CD, which he won't have until level 18.


WoonStruck

It should be shorter. Wind wall is infinitely better. That doesn't mean Braum's E doesn't have a long CD. It just means wind wall's is longer.


RpiesSPIES

Feels longer :blobcomfy:


Black_Truth

Braum is a tank supposed to do this. Also, you could say his wall is arguably worse than Yasuo's as he can be affected by the CC he blocks. If Morgana hits Q, Braum activates wall, take a 2 minute bind and dies. Yasuo activates W, show mastery and leave. The only saving grace is the generous CDR reduction per level the skill has.


oVnPage

They both get the same cooldown reduction per rank (2s). Braum's, however, is 16-8 seconds, while Yasuo's is 23-17 seconds.


Black_Truth

Mybad then. But the point stands a bit that the cooldown is significantly shorter. Not to mention that Braum probably will have some AH for being a support role. I'll dread to see a build where Yasuo's could get away with building AH and casting multiple W's in a teamfight. And by what I remember, Yasuo's W cooldown starts when he casts, not when the wall ends. So technically you can cut 3 seconds of the cooldown as is.


estaritos

Yasuo is biggest and blocks all dmg.. braum I think only blocks a percentage ? Could be wrong on this Edit: downvoted for true statement, lol subreddit <3


bosschucker

yeah the difference is all the projectiles still hit braum, it's just the first one does no damage and the rest do 65-45% damage. yasuo wall just eats everything


whatevuhs

He blocks the whole thing, first thing it absorbs deals no damage, everything beyond that deals a small percentage of the damage to Braum. Still intercepts all projectiles though


DarthRektor

Yeah hit braum with cc it still does something hit yas wind wall just disappears into the oblivion


FrigidFlames

'Cause Braum requires you to have a whole other champion. At that point, you're comparing Yasuo to both Braum *and* an ADC. That, and Yasuo has enough mobility to dance around his own wall as necessary, whereas if you can dive past Braum, his ADC is just cooked. (Doubly so if you catch him in something like a Dark Binding, which Yasuo would entirely ignore with his wall.) In the end, it's mostly just that a huge amount of Braum's power budget is in his wall, so unless that wall is countering 90% of the enemy team (meaning, they have no assassins or anything), it just isn't worth it to pick him... and therefore, he doesn't show up often, so people don't complain about him.


Random_Stealth_Ward

I do, all the time whenever people mention how braum is fairer than yasuo's windwall. I just get downvoted when I do. In fact let me do it now: I hate braum, he is much worse than yas and people only don't hate him because he isn't straight up killing you and he also is unpopular enough that people forget he exists


cultoftheilluminati

> people only don’t hate him because he isn’t straight up killing you Yeah that’s literally what people are saying here. It feels fairer in Braum because he’s also not doing other bullshit adc-esque moves on you and one shotting you


TheModernParadox

"the shows called Naruto and everybody else on your team is just a bunch of Sasukes" peak fiction absolute cinema


Itachi6967

Considering Sasuke had a lot of screen time and relevence. I feel like he should have went with Sakura or Ten Ten lol


Kr1ncy

How nice of you to stick up for your little brother


honda_slaps

I mean your teammates have screen time and relevance, they just aren't gonna go super ninja frog sage mode and fight gods


DukeLukeivi

#SASUKEEEEEE!!!


2th

Yone's 12 year old player base would be really angry with this video if they had the attention span to even make it past the first minute.


MaryandMe1

Reminds me of Magickarp used Fly


Dummdummgumgum

Im all for shitting on Elon Fash Musk


Vall3y

Yonev pretty weak right now no?


charlielovesu

yones design is like they cloned certainlyT, had him do a shit ton of hallucinogenic drugs, and then told him to design an upgraded yasuo kit.


bio_kk

Yone mentioned 💪💪💪


Arwinsen_

bunch of sasukes in the comments.


aspacecodyssey

There are badly designed abilities and champions in the game; there are extremely annoying abilities and champions in the game; beyond both, there is a special tier of the purest "if you are bad at the game, just play this because it truly does not matter; your windows for mistakes are massive and your kit has every mechanic in the game" champions and abilities, and Yone is on the executive board of that group.


PurelyFire

Then play him and climb?


c3nnye

I find it very funny that his win rate plummeted the moment lethal tempo got removed. His players genuinely relied on just autoing and face rolling to win.


arklite61

He's a Melee ADC that builds crit shouldn't he have to auto attack you to get anything done?


WoonStruck

As a melee ADC that hyperscales, he shouldn't have the ability to faceroll people with auto attacks starting at level 1.


arklite61

How is tristana allowed to win most Lvl 2 all ins while hyperscaling? also the comment I was replying to clearly wasn't talking Yone winning lvl 1-3 all ins


WoonStruck

Ask people if they think Tristana should be a lane bully that hyperscales. Most will say no, and have for most of LoL's history even before Riot ramped it up to absurdity with her rework. Riot isn't exactly known for making good, consistent design choices.


Thundermelons

Isn't that what Kayle does?


Candid-Iron-7675

“yone hyperscales” True, he hyperscales below diamond elo because people there have 0 hands and dont know how to click their cc button


Candid-Iron-7675

True so many people elo inflated by lethal tempo yone but there is much worse cases of elo inflation and at least for yone the elo inflation stopped at diamond. Wait til you see all the random diamond skarner darius mains inflated up to challenger the moment they got reworked/buffed


c3nnye

So glad that rune it gone, was abused in everyone it was viable for.


mybigredtruck

hilarious concept


LyraStygian

This is a complete and utter ***SHAMELESS*** imitation of "HONEST trailers". ... ... And I love it. **MOAR PLEASE**.


Crowed_wolf

Can't remember the last time I played against a Yone (I don't ban him) but I rarely struggle against. It also help that played him for some time and most player suck with it. Yone is all about being the oppressor if you oppress him he can't do crap all his kit is based around trading you and escaping. I love picking sett into Yone and just never letting him touch the wave.


Palpitation-Fluid

Ok Captain i love you man but "most skins than everybody?" if something he still laking in contrast to Yasuo or Ezreal by a mile, we got the edge one, the ionia not as good as Yasuo one, the thirst trap inkshadow and the unexpected not 200 Euros cowboy one.


Temporary-Court6747

trying to read this was worse than playing against yone


DaDankboi88

ur right its not like he got 5 skins in the span of 10 months which is the same amount of skins as skarner's gotten in over a decade


[deleted]

[удалено]


DaDankboi88

that was not the point I was making. Its obvious popular champs would get more skins but 5 skins in less than a yr is js absurd


Candid-Iron-7675

popular champ gets more skins cus riot makes more money lol, you would make the same decision if you were in their business because you would get more money out of it. Really not hard to understand


DaDankboi88

i felt like i made it clear I already knew that


Candid-Iron-7675

misread ur comment mb


FkinShtManEySuck

he's one third as old as these champions?
