How the fuck is new yorick better than Old Yorick, again?

Wind Whistler··5 votes·2,803 views

He heals for less, has less mobility, is squishier, and once you kill him, he's no longer a threat at all. Could someone PLEASE help me understand how the old one sucked, yet the new one is somehow better???

Also, R.I.P. Old Yorick. The few people who understood you miss you dearly.

He's a better duelist and has better specific skills instead of being a non-interactive drain tank.

He's not a better duelist. Like, at all. The old one would fucking run over you like a lawnmower if you tried to fight him, especially late game, when he got his full build.

Seen it already. Old Yorick could do all of that, but even quicker. Still rather impressive of Cr1tikal to do, though, so props to him, I guess.

The trap thing goes off too slow. He is also kind of boring. Give him something like +5/ or 10 ms, so he won't get permakited.

Old Yorick was cancer that they removed from the game for a reason.

20% damage reduction+significant sustain+20% bonus damage+perma-ghost was stupid, and that's before you consider his Ult.

Let's not forget how problematic his early game was.

So you're actually admitting he was overpowered, besides his early game?

Any time he wasn't purposely under-tuned to the point of being nearly unusable, yes.

Surprisingly, prior to his rework was not one of those times.

Awww, I thought I had you there for a second.

Mind telling me exactly how he was undertuned? I was running over people the day before he kicked the bucket.
