Am I the only one that thinks new Yorick is the new juggernaut people will QQ about?

Forgive me if he isn't a juggernaut but I feel he will be QQ'd about for his sustain, ult split push potential, and his ghouls.

hes meant to be one, but his w is really freaking strong utility for a jugg.

and yes. as soon as some lategame squishy gets trapped in and half his health pool chunked by his q, theyre gonna start coming here to complain.

Regardless of any facts people will complain. They could've made him a tree with one ability, stand, and some asshole would make a post that the constant vision he gives is OP.

I think so, but at least Riot learned something from Darius and Illaoi and made his healing flat.

He also actually requires some setup, unlike Illaoi who can wreck face with just the tentacles from ghost and ult combo.

people are already QQing and are trying to talk riot out of releasing the rework by saying "the rework completely changed the champ to be unrecognizable". plz only a hand full of people including myself have played the champ and liked it (current and new on pbe) and it appears im the only one of that group that goes on the boards.

A lot of the PBE games I have watched show him dominating, but it is so hard to determine how strong he actually is based on that either, because the skill level of players vary so greatly. As is when coming in there will be an initial adjustment to his new skill set, a lot of snowballing steam rolling going on and QQ abound. Then people will learn how to play against him and he will be kited, ignored, or countered heavily by mobility champs (anyone with a dash). After that he will likely get put aside and forgotten again, unless of course the debts decide they actually do want him to be a success, because then they may give him an anti dash field for his W, since the wall can be destroyed in a half second or so through autos and such.

Gotta look at his weaknesses as well, his sustain only helps in laning or jungling, his W is destroyable, his graves generation is restricted heavily, and his maiden cannot push a tower by herself (she will die before knocking it down even half). Oh and the walkers themselves are nearly uncontrollable. So no, I do not think he will be OP, and nor do I think he should receive QQ, but that said people cry about anytime they are beat in general. The takeaway is that he could be balanced, but still get cried about.
