Rework removes all that makes yorick unique
Old yorick was a hunchbacked beefy grave digger, his idle animations showing him trying to get himself comfortable and his walking animation showing his difficulty to walk. his model being outdated and his kit being terrible was his only issue.
New yorick is nothing more than taric cosplaying a WoW warlock. I mean even his new VO sounds like taric.
Riot took his shovel and the concept of summoning, and nothing else when making this rework. New yorick is generic and boring visually (not including skill animations) Old yorick only needed an update on his model and animations to fit his new kit. This rework might has well just been "yorick was removed from the game"
Dont get me wrong... the new kit is interesting, but the redesign just removed so much that it might as well be a new character.
