his wall needs to be one hit to destroy. Also Maiden needs like.. some sort of duration that is shorter than Forever.

Otherwise I think he's fine.

His wall needs more hp and lower duration + prevents short range dashes. (champions with longer cd/range dashes/blinks like trist zed ezreal or summoner 4 will remain unaffected and escape as normal)

-Champions building attack speed and auto resets don't get out instantly.

-Champions that are immobile and don't have attack speed/auto resets are not punished as hard, they may get out sooner than they do now.

-Champions with low cd/small dashes shouldn't have been caught in the first place, they had the opportunity to avoid it so now they will be treated as immobile, they will now be punished but not too much since ofcourse the duration will be lowered.

Way more balanced against a variety of enemies which makes Yorick into less of a win hard + opponent cant do anything or lose and Yorick cant do anything.

Agreed. Personally, the entire problem is Yorick's kit is designed to completely dominate a lane, whether he's behind due to the early game or not. His kit just out trades most bruisers and tanks by mid game. Part of the issue is Yorick has a ton of damage coming from a large number of different sources that each stack on each other.

For example. Yorick's Q is an aa reset and by mid game it's not unusual for it to deal 500 dmg or more on a 2.4 second cooldown. But that's not all. Each Minion of Yorick's can do up to 150 damage each depending on your build. Assuming Yorick has 4 minions up, that's 600 damage each per attack. The Maiden also deals 100 damage per second as magic damage, and if Yorick attacks her target, Yorick deals up to 10% of his targets max hp as bonus magic damage. And if Yorick has conqueror he also gets 10% of his damage as true damage and heals for that amount on top of healing up to 128 per Q if Yorick is under 40% HP (64 if over this).

So... basically he deals a shit ton of damage. Maiden allows Yorick to do even more damage, and conqueror combined with Yorick's Q healing ensures he's twice as dangerous to fight if he's low on hp. Also each minion maiden attacks that's killed is automatically raised.

So how do you beat Yorick? ... ... You don't. Not really. You beat his team, that's part of the problem. Good teamwork and a good team comp will beat Yorick in a 5v5 easily because Yorick is only good if he can afk in a lane against one or 2 enemy champs while the rest of his team wins across the map. Cuz not many champs can beat Yorick in a 1v1, let alone 1v2 save someone like Renekton, but even he gets outscales and will always end up losing to him at some point by Yorick's kit.

Yorick is a powerhouse post level 6 and you have to understand his kit very well to beat him consistently in lane at all points of the game. Because if you're not very familiar with how he works, how strong he is, and how strong he can be if he, at any point, decides to ult; he will ult, and kill you immediately.

And if Yorick's really fed, it will require at least 3 people with hard cc to take him down or he will afk shove his lane until the game ends, unless an entire team comes to stop him, which can lead to a 5v5 against 4 champs and a WoW style Raid Boss named Yorick and The Maiden.
