League of Legends News: Meet Yasuo, the Newest Champion, and Update 3.15 Hits [VIDEO]

Yasuo the Unforgiven is League of Legends' Latest Champion

That League of Legends roster just keeps getting bigger and better...

There's yet another Champion that's been added to the game, and his name is Yasuo the Unforgiven. As his name alludes to, he seems to be the surly type, but he enjoys a stiff drink as much as teh next samurai.

As you might expect, he's a melee heavy character who relies on his blade for swift and lethal strikes. But he doesn't have mastery over just the sword. He can also call on one of the four elements to assist him in battle - wind. For lack of a better description, and a desperate attempt to make a truly awful joke, Yasuo blows.

"Yasuo's mastery of both wind and blade is unrivaled. A lethal and disruptive powerhouse against even the hardiest of enemies, Yasuo relies on resilience and his unique Wind Wall to shield himself and his allies from distant threats while he gathers his strength through Steel Tempest. When the time comes, Yasuo uses Sweeping Blade to dash through the enemy line until he's face to face with vulnerable enemies. A final Steel Tempest launches the Unforgiven's foes to the skies, enabling Yasuo to head skywards himself and unleash his airborne ult, Last Breath."
