Been trying out Yorick, that W change from 6.20 feels clunky as hell

Specifically the one that makes it cast at max range if you cast it outside of the range. Its the kind of ability that you really want at a specific location. I want to know from some people who played Yorick before that change if it felt better before.

It is unnecessary.

My thoughts exactly. Sometimes I'll want to catch up to someone and then W to block their escape path but instead I cast it a good distance behind them looking like an idiot.

that change feels terrible and counterintuitive. usually when you cast aoe abilities out of range, your character will walk up to the location until hes at maximum cast range, then cast it.

it works like this with pretty much every aoe skillshot in the game. i jus cant get used to this.

Was trying to quote ''i just cant get used to this.'' and then say something similiar with taliyah's w changes but idk how it works lol whatever

Guess I'm on the wrong thread for this, but I like the change. I wish all spells except trap/ward placement cast at max range. Too many times have i walked into the enemy trying to cast raka q at max range. And when I take Yorick Into the jungle, i usually need that wall to come up fast, not necessarily in the perfect spot.

I just wish there was at least an option to choose between the two cast modes. There are some abilities where I'd like it casting at max range like that, but Yorick's W is not one of them.

I would appreciate that option. I use quick cast with indicators so I get a feel for spells and their ranges pretty fast. Why would Riot give us 3 different options for how indicators show but not give us the option whether to have abilities cast at max range?

Another clunky W change? Taliyah we feel your pain.

Yup main new Yorick here, Really hate when you are chasing a enemy and you use W but it automatically place it at max range rather then the spot you want to walk to use it at max range. Definitely sure other champion are different from this that's why it's so hard to get use to since practically all the other champion are the same and spending time to remember this and get use to this for 1 champion is kind of hard.

i feel like its most of the reason why a yorick would cast his w outside of range is for chasing potential

not really for a specific place to put your w because how can you predict/know their movements will be there exactly by the time you are in range and walk there?

Everything Riot has done to Yorick post rework has made him worse. Shows how much Riot even understands their own rework.

I stopped playing him after that change, it just feels weird and I'd rather play something else instead

They did the same fucking thing with Taliyah's W and i fucking hate it. RIOT GIVE US THE OLD Ws BACK YOU BAST.... I won't say that just because they gave me a free Kayle skin last month.

When Riot breaks things that aren't broken.

It's times like these when you say "%%%%% why?".
