@riot Yorick's Maiden thoughts?

After yoricks rework i became a yorick main, i love him, he's honestly in my top 3 champions and is even first up there on many occasions. His maiden though...she's kind of dumb at times. Don't get me wrong, i like the idea of her not being controllable, that's good it sets him apart and makes it feel more visceral when playing him, especially the music.

The issues with her AI though is that because she literally doesn't listen to ANYTHING(cause i don't have any gym badges) I used to be able to E a camp to get her to stop splitting and come with me, i feel safer with my maiden nearby because a lot of yoricks power is in her. The fact i can't E to make her not die and go on a freaking three minute cooldown is kind of annoying. The maiden should also try and run away(towards yorick) while taking damage if yorick isn't within a certain area of her, this way when the tower starts attacking her, she won't die as easily and if champions go to stop her split push, she can run away.

I'd really like changes like this, no changes to damage or scaling, simply changing her AI to be smarter than your average minion.

Edit: it would also be kind of cool if the maiden could be told to stay with a certain ally champion, say the ADC wants to go and farm a wave, get the maiden to go to because it's better than having the ADC go alone. Or if the maiden didn't just run to yorick when in danger but towards the nearest ally champion and stayed with them until reunited with yorick.

She, Tibbers and Daisy (I THINK that's all the large-scale summonable AI helpers) all suffer from varying AI issues. I would like to see her made smarter as well (As I am a fellow Yorick player) because sometimes I mark someone with the E, and she stands there and watches like I'm an exhibit at a zoo.
