Easy way to buff Yorick

Just make his Q hit towers like trundle. You may have to put a damage reduction on it if it's too op right off the bat, but this guy was MADE to be a split pusher. The fact that trundle can split push faster and be useful in draining tanks in a teamfight while yorick is 'meh' in both catagories is why he needs to be buffed. His E slow is fine the way it is, just make him THE split pusher in the game. He's already forced to stay in lane with his passive, making his teamfights a lot harder if he doesnt have his ult or the enemy team kills it in 2 seconds (which doesnt happen as much anymore because of the hp buff). He's just lacking that oomf to make him viable.

The difference between a Trundle pusher and a Yorick pusher, is that Trundle eats towers while Yorick can't and shouldn't.

Lets say they allow Yorick's Q to proct, that won't be enough.

If you have that, with both champions having just Trinity Force, it will be a close race but Trundle will have the advantage through his slightly quicker animation and the AD boost on his Q. If you have those and add in Yorick's 4 ghouls vs Trundle with Frozen Domain, Trundle will win. I don't know by how much to an exact % or time, but Trundle is more consistent with his damage because it's just his damage, while the ghouls don't hit nearly as hard as Trundle's added attack speed when factored in.

The only way Yorick would possibly win is if the Maiden gets involved as well, otherwise Trundle is superior because his kit supports his single-target playstyle's quick and harsh damage output. Meanwhile Yorick's style has a better wave clearing focus to it, which causes it to lose out when attacking towers when compared to other tower killers.

Taking towers down isnt a problem so long as you build item 3512. Yorick's problems lie elsewhere.

I could get into it, but I can't be bothered. Play him for yourself and see with your own experiences.
