@meddler Yorick seems weak and unhealthy. Any Planned Buffs?

Will we get more buffs for Yorick? Because he just seems extremely weak and feels unhealthy. His mist walkers dont seem to really scale well into late game and when fighting a tower they instantly die and are prioritized by the turrets over minions when it should not be prioritezed over them UNLESS they attack the champion and said could be same with the mist maiden. Their AI is extremely buggy, inconsistent, and stupid. Lets not forget his W isnt really that good. He just needs some tiny buffs to be good.

Reasons why he is unhealthy is because he relies to much on luck that mist maiden and mist walkers do what you need to do and if you are behind you gotta keep running it down a lane and split pushing because you will not be useful to your team otherwise.

So could we get a buffs on Yorick? Here are some ideas.

  1. Mist Walkers and Mist Maiden have better AI
  2. Mist Walkers and Mist Maiden have Armor and Magic Resist scaling off Yorick's Armor and Magic Resist (because they get one shot)
  3. His W's wall HP scales better. 2/2/3/3/4 to 2/3/4/5/6
  4. Q healing changed to heal 3% of his missing HP and is doubled below 50% HP
  5. Mist Walkers and Mist Maiden are not prioritized over minions

Please riot lets make Yorick great!

Even if I'm a Yorick Main , he seems ok/good. I don't think he need another buff at all.

Don't buff that piece of shit wtf

He does a shit ton of damage, and he's able to put you in a small little box and run away as his putrid little gremlins chunk away almost all your health

Yorick is in a fair spot right now, but could use some changes to make skill expression more evident. Very frequently we see him just running at enemies and bopping him with his shovel, where he should be more focused around his walkers and Maiden.

While a huge number of options exist for improving him, I think the easiest would be either better pet health, like Zyra or Heimer pets for the walkers and a certain number of autos to kill the Maiden that regenerates over time like wards. 5 for the Maiden would make it take at least 2 seconds for any solitary champ to kill (immunity to smite, it is already dead, should be immune to things that would affect the living). Other really good choices could be increased production of graves (including both enemy and allied minions), or increased movement speed when using E (scaling with rank).

Yorick could do for some minor buffs focused around utilizing his passive and skills better, not just Q smacking enemies.
