Why doesn' Yorick get a mana buff??

With the removal of mana potions, we can also retune some champion mana values back to a middle ground. We’ve looked at the data for champions that frequently bought 2 or more mana potions in the game and we’ve either increased their maximum mana or the mana regeneration values based on their class.

I can promise you,Yorick buys probably 10 or probably more mana potions a game... He's definitely on of the mana hungriest champs in the game

Doesn't get mana buff.

Wtf. He's going to be literally unplayable with mana potions removed.

I don't understand the decision to remove mana potions in the first place. It's a perfectly reasonable tactical decision to make available. "Do I want to stay in lane a bit longer? Is it worth sacrificing a bit of gold for?" Why is that bad? Who cares if not every champion can use them? I don't get the whole "sustain = health" notion that Riot seems to be pushing. We're not all manaless..

Buff Yorick like you did everyone else please

Yorick builds Tear and still runs out of mana without pots. Even when it's fully charged.

Yorick isn't being given a mana compensation because Riot hates him.

Yes, but you know who else builds Tear and runs out of mana?

Anybody.

Then why bring Tear up if it's presence doesn't invalidate the OP's premise of Yorick being too mana hungry to not have mana pots to purchase?

Did you even think your response through at all?

Yeah, I understand. I start item 1027 and item 2004. I still have to buy pots the whole game, even with fully stacked tear. There are plenty of other champions in the same boat, but they all got compensation buffs to their mana regen. Yorick is pretty much the only champ who didn't get one, even though he is one of the most mana hungry champs in the game.

And I'd appreciate it if you didn't just downvote my thread when I'm just trying to have a reasonable discussion about the game.

Chogath didn't get a compensation buff either, but he doesn't build tear

You know what I do as Yorick, I force the enemy out of lane before i go oom, then base while they're gone/dead, then return to lane and repeat.
