Buff Yorick
Because we all know he is in need of them.

Yeah he needs a revive passive and a knock up on each of his ghouls. His ult should spawn a yasuo as well. Then he will be a slightly okay champion

Don't troll his thread. Serious responses only please.
He doesn't need a buff.
He is incredibly oppresive in lane and is why he was not on free week for a very long time.
Not to mention riot just gave him a tiny little buff. I've never played yorick myself but he is very hard to kill, and also does decent damage with his manamune, ghouls, and his ult that can change many teamfights ( ulting cassopedia, yasio, your ADC, and that jax... )
The sad thing is, we still see
a lot even though he was oppressive. By now, with the health item nerfs, mana regen nerfs, and such,
became more and more viable yet they never seemed to care...
The thing about Lee being oppressive is by him being able to gank as often as he can. Yorick is oppressive because you get a Tear and spam ghouls on people until they have to go back. All his ghouls, unlike Malz's voidspawn, automatically chase the nearest champion and will only hit a minion if a champ isn't near. His ghouls have one of the scariest AI's around and with the right amount of CDR, he can keep up his 20% damage reduc for the duration of his ult by keeping his ghouls up.
He's oppressively annoying and with Front Liners and Peelers being more popular, he'll likely make his return and be as irritating as he was back in S2.
But they die fast. Like, within 4 to 7 seconds, they will die. They do deal damage, but against ranged, his W is all he has, besides the E which is used as a heal.
Malz can keep his up for more than 20 seconds at a time, they even get stronger and gain more AS and health.
They're both strong, but I can handle Yorick's minions, and I love Yorick, really. He's fun and he used to oppress but now he's just viable but barely played since he's not on Free Champion Week.
It may had been a dream or something but back about 2 or so years ago, I thought I saw him on the Free to Play.
They die fast because he can have so many all at once and he can spawn them rather quickly. A good Yorick is like a good Nasus. You get your max CDR and become a wall of huge damage and ungodly tankiness.
His Q has a 5s CD base by max, his W has a 12s CD (His longest of his first three and the only ability that doesn't reduce in CD with level), and his E has a 6s CD. His R lasts for 10s. When you take into consideration that his ghouls last about 4ish seconds on average if not being AoE'd down, which usually means they have to save their AoE's for just his ghouls, he'll still sustain 2-3 ghouls in a team fight until his Revenant (Or the person the ghost is of) dies.
Each ghoul also has 35% of his max health and 35% of his max AD. This means they do a lot of his damage and still manage to sustain a large amount of health while also taking 50% less from AoE abilities.
Pretty much. Yorick is a Peeler and would definitely be considered an 'Avoid at all costs in a team fight' kinda champion.
Maybe his ult just spawns Xiaoweixiao
Isn't that what he said?
I agree
Needs more shovels

Yes.
if you think yorick needs a buff then you don't know how to play yorick XD , just cause hes a forgotten champion and hardly anyone knows how to play him doesn't mean he needs a buff :p , he dominates in the top lane against anyone

Can you link the account you play Yorick on? I'd like to see your build that you're dominating everyone in top lane with.

i don't play yorick top lane i play yorick in the jungle but here is the link to my yorick match history ( please note there are many many more games ive played with him but it only started recording when the new mh came out )
{quoted} hardly anyone knows how to play him
Yeaah. No. Leave him alone he is already quite strong and slated for a rework.
This is the key mentality behind this. Riot is perfectly capable of making buff such as "Movement speed: 335 ->340" or "Scaling changed from .5 -> .55" until a character is in a spot where they are picked on par with the others. The issue with this is that it wouldn't address the innate flaws in his kit that Riot stated they are planning on changing. His kit is more binary than many of the newer champs, not good for someone who can be such an oppressive lane bully from quarter of a lane away.
I want to also emphasize my earlier use of the word "picked" because his winrate in hovering just below 50%, so it's more likely that some of his larger problems are mechanical problems rather than number problems.
They don't want him played often though, he isn't on the free week for a reason. His kit is toxic in the right hands (And by god I love being one of those right hands) and no one wants to see him often.
We could buff movement speed, maybe a small mana pool buff (honestly the most reasonable) but again putting him in a spotlight isn't a good idea, and will most likely just put him in Warwicks position where they overnerf him until they can properly fix him.
He doesn't need a buff, he needs a rework.
Swain, Riven and Renekton shit on Yorick
Yorick is a beast in lane. He's just poorly designed because he's only as strong as his mana pool. He doesn't need a buff he needs a rework.
How about just give the old lump a rework for god's sake?
Buff 
Because we all know he is in need of them... Kappa
300% AD scaling on ult please
or we can make his bleed have 9000% AD on bleed. Q deals around 60% of maximum health, W deals = to 5 tri force so thats around 1000% bonus damage on attack AND it slows for 100% turning into a Silence AND it automatically makes his attack speed to 0.00 AND it reduces his damage output to 1%. Make his E give 70% armor penetration and 50 flat armor pen. AND NOW HIS DUNKARINA!!! It deals 100% maximum health and the scaling is around 500% AD (NOTE NOT BONUS SUCKAS) AND NO IT REFRESHES AT LV 6 NOT LV 16!! WHO IS GOING TO WAIT FOR LATE GAME WHEN I CAN ONLY DUNK ONE PERSON??!!??!!?. Rito pls if you do implement these promising changes, i will make sure to buy ALL skins for Darius <3 c: #BuffDariusOrWeRiot!!!!
I think each of his ghouls should possess the opponent into walking into your turret, and you get double gold for each CS as a passive.
I think yorick would benefit greatly from an item that burrows from black cleaver and wits end.
In that youd need a way to debuff the enemy's magic registance faster. Wits end takes too long to apply enough stacks to take advantage of the debuff with your w and e. Its also single target which is tough to consistantly apply wits end as yorick is easily kited. If he could debuff thei magic resist as well as say a riven with hydra and blsckcleaver can their armor resist then yorick would shine. To make it less op this debuff would have to apply only to him not allies. That way your w and e both apply 1 debuff penetrating and helping you heal.
Or have an item that creates an aoe 400 radius similar to
spirit fire that would reduce the magic resist of enemies within the area. The reduction wouldn't stack with abssyal scepter to prevent it from being broken.
It'd be a unique active with like a 16 second cool down. It wouldn't do any damage like spirit fire does only debuff.
Item in question would likely be hybrid ap/ad leaning towards ad. Or be somewhat tanky. I could see it be built out of seekers armguard and pixaxe or something. Like a hybrid abyssal scepter but instead of aura its an aoe active.
Much more deserving than Varus I might say.
Give him a revive passive on top of his passive's passive.

I disagree. Varus needs them more. He's never been OP and Yorick has no counters. Varus has counters, so therefore he is more deserving of buffs.
His E now spawns teemo shrooms throughout the AoE
We must also change his visuals. He needs a fedora.

Stop derailing threads.
I am this thread.

He's perfectly fine right now - very balanced actually.
Yorick definitely has counters - that is crazy talk.

Who? Trundle? Cho'gath? Volibear? I've been on both sides of those match ups. Really not as hard a counter as Yorick countering a Shen.
When Yorick walks up to the balanced bar, there is no counter.

You ever laned vs a Yorick? It's worse than darius, he has probably the best laning phase in the game, he's ideal for lane swaps or for shutting down a lane, and his ult on the right person can turn around team fights, he falls off pretty hard late game but he eats lanes. Basically the opposite of Poppy.
Want to fix Yorik? Move his Q's movement speed boost to activation instead of on hit.
yorick doesnt need buffs
I first played yorick during that gamemode that everyone gave people supports for. Can't remember the name of it now. Didn't have a clue how to play him but realized he was something so I bought him and learned him. I am not a super great player but from my opinion he is not OP and not really underpowered either.
In most of the games now you deal with super assassins that gap close and jump away, and every other non assassin champ that has mobility and range. They can shoot down the minions from distance, they can just jump away. With the low move speed he has trouble even trying to close with most popular champs despite the slow minion. the q speed boost does no good when he can't get in range to get a hit for the speed boost in the first place. But if you get a champ that doesn't have that range and mobility then he can do great.
His biggest problem that I see is that he is designed for past seasons and is countered by too many new champs or old champs with mobility reworks. If his q granted the speed boost on activate, then I think that would put him in a decent spot vs newer champs. Maybe make his minions start hitting when they spawned instead of sitting there. The other downside is that he needs the tear first, giving other champs an earlier power boost, and that to spam the spells needed for the manamune upgrade, he just doesn't have enough mana to keep it up. So you get the choice between getting damage or mana early, with the former meaning that you take longer to get tear stacked up which is pretty much mandatory. That would be okay if he was powerful enough to take the hit to early game dominance that other champs get. But it's entirely situational on the enemy team how good he can be right now.
We need a shovel knight skin for yorick
People who took this thread serious should be ashamed of themselves
I don't understand people that are saying he is oppressive in lane. Like I've played Yorick and he is tremendously weak. He might as well be a jungle camp instead of a champion. Definitely in need of buffs.
