Yorick is my favorite top lane champion since he stomps low elo. He pushes extremely hard and nobody can 1v1 him. Once I get t2 top tower, I rotate bot and do it for bot then go back top and get inhib. With the new runes coming, I need to know what runes to use. So far, resolve is the way to go. But what about the secondary tree. Do I go percision,domination, or inspiration.
ReySolomon1 votesYou gonna have to experiment them see which you like better.
Variks the Loyal1 votesExperiment. But Grasp of the Undying + Demolition seems really good for him.
Shuriman Curator1 votesSo far on Nasus and Garen I've tried Resolve + Precision for the tenacity stacking.
On Darius I've had the most success with going Inspiration (glacial augment rune)+ Precision.
Id try precision and inspiration.
Overall in my opinion Juggernauts will be strong with the new runes, the tenacity stacking in precision alone puts them back I to the game.
I've also been going Trinity and Steraks as core on Nasus, Garen and Darius with much greater success then Black Cleaver.
I'm going to play some Yorick today(I played him a good bit on live and curious how he fairs with the new runes) I'll report back.
DragonShea1 votesGrasp is the best rune so far, taking that and then going demolish, conditioning, overgrowth and then either take Legend: Tenacity and last stand in precision or Gathering storm and The ultimate hat/Nullifying Orb in sorcery as your secondary rune path.
Jaspers1 votesI went through this the other day. Loves me some Yorick. Just take towers = win, screw kills.
Sadly you nearly always have to go Resolve as most other options aren't great but this does help you overall.
Grasp is the only main rune you can use, other 2, one is for support the other CC, Yorick has neither. Next Demolish - for obvious reasons (I think this will be abused and nerfed, full HP tank cho can take a lot of health from a tower with no minions about, if they removed the HP scaling on it and just make it scaling, that would be great as then it's intended for Yorick, Nasus and alike). Iron Skin/Mirror Shell - Change based on your lane opponent. With Q's healing, you proc this easy... once you have level 5 at least. This last Resolve stuff is all pathetic, 0.2% of your health, perminant increase or not, Yorick isn't building HP tank. Second Wind.
Then this is where it's confusing. What you pair it with.
I don't like Precision or Inspiration here to pair with.
Domination - Ghost Poro and Ravenous Hunter, the former to help split, the latter as I presume your ghouls and Maiden all count in this, healing you as you fight.
Sorcery - Harder choices. Manaflow Band and Absolute Focus will help in lane, Ultimate Hat allow you to summon maiden more often. Absolute Focus mentions nothing about being out of combat so extra AD when full health taking turrets?
Alternate idea.
Have Inspiration as main Runes. Summoner Specialist. Use it to take smite to secure Herald or objectives later. Biscuit for lane sustain. Minion dematerialiser to help push waves. Celestial Body for 100 health bonus, only 8% damage reduction? Fine with that. Then with Resolve and get demolish and Iron/Mirror. Bit more troll split push but might work.
