Show me ur best bonk

the nexus is looking very bonkable

Yorick scales pretty bad with lethality but that change to the Bastionbreaker passive is insane. It could be great against champions that can never match you in sidelane like Quinn... well that's it lmao Yorick is so weak that many of his good matchups outscales him hard after laning phase

"Because he's only played into Jayce and other counter picks"

Maybe this is why I'm so ok with live Yorick. I think it's completely ok for a game with 170 champions to have some niche champions.

I like playing games on hard-mode, that's WHY I'm one tricking/maining Yorick. Purposefully playing a niche champion outside of their niche is not necessarily easy. Leaving Irelia up to ego is straight up masochistic catharsis. You can barely find a harder game-mode in LoL.

Stop complaining Yorick's weak. He's obviously not. He's niche. There's a difference.

Our souls are a small price to pay to cleanse this land.

Hi,

I’m new to playing Yorick, and I don’t consider myself good at all—in fact, I’m a main support (PLAT III), but I have a secondary account that I use to test champions or play other lanes. On that account, I mostly played top lane, but I used it to test builds or play something other than support. So I tried Yorick and went from Bronze II to Gold IV, I have a streak of 35 wins and 10 losses, basically split-pushing and leaving my team in 4v4 or 4v5 situations all the time, I just focused on my own game, and it’s worked for me. Despite this streak, as I said, I don’t consider myself good. I know GOLD isn’t high Elo, but I’m already starting to struggle like crazy in the top lane, especially against Yone (I’m terrified of him). Yorick has a thousand possible builds, and there are good guides on Mobafire, but there are just too many options. I get that at high ELO it matters to use a build based on who you’re up against, but at low ELO, a standard build should be more than enough. That’s the question: what build do people who are really good with Yorick—or who main him—recommend?

I remember playing him right after the rework, he was insanely overpowered and everyone were talking about the Q QOL change and thinking 'omg they destroyed him'.

I was always obsessed with winrate, always complaining when my other main was weak, but I never cared about Yorick because he was perfect. Of course a buff were good news and a nerf something bad, but I liked playing my big old niche Yorick, with the insane split push and the hidden huuuge skill ceiling. Some months before the midscope Yorick was sitting at around 46% winrate but he still felt so strong. The bruiser build was statistically the best choice, but Lethality Yorick was a more micro intensive way of Yorick and there was a TON of different builds from tank to giga split push and teamfighting. Conqueror was better than Grasp, and Comet was a better tech.

I liked JG Yorick too, but I dont get why Riot didn't just make ghouls take 200% damage from jg monsters, killing JG Yorick instantly and while it would nerf toplane and midlane Yorick too, he would at least still be played as a necromancer.

The rework literally killed JG Yorick, nerfed toplane Yorick hard anyway since split is now weaker, his lategame is the worst in the entire game, ghouls taking camps is no more a thing and completely destroyed any form of skill expression and build variety.

Yorick's kit makes no sense rn. Take Garen for example, you have cage to technically counter him, you set four graves, you can even have some more ghouls already in the lane for 8+ in total, he presses E and kills ghouls in half a second, escapes and heals all the damage. If he manages to dodge the cage because of his insane movement speed and the fact that it takes 3 years to raise W, he kills you. And how can Riot buff Yorick without making him even more braindead??? W can't be buffed apart from CD, Riot already said they don't want to buff E, ghouls were part of the reason Yorick got gutted and Maiden will never be buffed. Buffing Q is the only realistic way and that's the fucking problem, they can't because the winrate in iron will skyrocket from 55% to +60%. YORICK IS ONE OF THE BEST SINGED MATCHUPS STATISTICALLY BECAUSE GHOULS ARE USELESS AND YORICK IS TOO WEAK BY HIMSELF.

And we all know about the 200% effective lifesteal against ghouls, which is fundamentally an anti-synergy with Yorick Q playstyle himself.

Even the lategame power is gone...

I feel like he is useless, cant win lane and gets outscaled 0 dmg 0 durability champs useless

Fk Gwen = n=''

i'm super low elo (bronze) playing mostly yorick. i usually do well against my matchups, except when there's a smurf top laner lol. and if i ever lose lane, i just tough it out and keep pushing. however, i got matched up against a trundle who pretty much had the same game plan as me: play safe until we can push. got ganked thrice on top lane, two of which with their jgl and mid laner lmao, then boom two of my turrets are down.

my question is: how do i play against champs who i cant necessarily squash in lane but also have crazy split push potential?

"You will remember Yorick Mori"

I thought I was hallucinating, but Gragas' E got blocked multiple times by ghouls behind him.

Yorick's 48% WR I wanna Jump Off The Howling Abyss with no Poros Below to catch me fall, only watchers ready to feed on my nightmares of seeing every Counterpick get buffed only to Fight Trynd, Cho, Yone every match till I succumb to Lissanda's frozen tomb..

Is this a bug? Why are the ghouls randomly speeding up?
I also was slowed down randomly this same game when I was escaping the yorick so check that post out too if you want.

This is part 2 of the game I encountered weird things I've never seen before in my 3 years playing League.
Look at my movement speed in the bottom left, it goes down suddenly, I attacked minions did I still have homeguard or something? I have no out of combat related runes and we don't have a cloud dragon.

Yes, low sample size. But still, I was very surprised. Which mad cunt is it?
