Yorick minion targeting really annoying, and why ghouls dont do spell effects?

  1.  I used to really love yorick , but right now i am having a few problems with his ghouls and maiden. Their will be times where i will land an e on an enemy they will leap at them but then proceed to hit minions by them. it also doesnt seem like they prioritize champions the way zyra/shaco/heim do. another problem i have is the maiden is awesome i love it, but their is so many times it just kinda derps around not knowing who to hit. was their reason they didnt make it like tibbers/daisy. where you can move it and tell it to target things. I understand maybe it might be because of the no leash range but make it where he has to be in a certain range to control or even better make it where he can just control it. you split top its bot then tell it to go mid as your going mid. having something cool like that would be awesome. 
    
  2.   ghouls and spell effects. From what i can tell they proc lifesteal and they proc black cleaver "thats just bcause all physical dmg does". but can someone tell me the reasoning why ghouls dont proc dft? Liandry's? Even the Summoned minion 20% slow on rylais? i really dont wanna run grasp od undying on yorick it just feels meh, I used to run fervor but not sure after changes. dft would be great on him and I don't even believe it would be broken just make it so they do what zyra/heim/shaco/malz. pets already do.

that doesn't really explain it. if malz minions heim turrets even chaco boxes why cant ghouls? you just posted a picture of rylais and said this is why?

Because Yorick is a juggernaut.

But she doesn't have any AP scalings.

so why should it work fo someone with no ap scalings and not for the person who has n ap scaling on top of magic dmg scaling to ad and hp% mag dmg. it wouldnt make him broken it would just open up new items for him

what i am trying to get at is every other spawned minion in the game gets it why doesnt work for him like i want a decent reason other than well rito said so XD

if you look at his actual kit, it becomes quite obvious Riot gave Yorick a lot of handicaps to prevent him from being a very problematic champion like old Yorick.

  • Mistwankers die if they get AA'd once
  • Mistwankers have like no attackspeed at all early on
  • Mistwankers often don't even get a single AA off early on unless Yorick landed a W.
  • Mistwankers don't apply spell effects to prevent Rylais being abusable.
  • His Maiden has some completely retarded AI and has an extremely long cooldown
  • His E is extremely slow and dodgeable to prevent him from being oppressive.

i guess thats understandable why bother still having him as a champion if they are gonna give him so many handicaps without a decent benefit why would you want yorick on your team at this point. :P i just want him to have intellegent ai or at least something other than his e to have them target ie ghouls target what maiden is targeting type of thing. right now i barely see him played sure he is fun but losing game and being raged out playing playing useless champpion is pretty annoying. their should be ways to make him both viable and not problematic. I just feel like they don't wanna bother their just like heres yoick rework play him for like a week to see that we did it and then never touch him again. thanks for feedback im just trying to figure out their reasons for handicapping him so much. i would be ok with them dealing less dmg with less scaling for them to be smarter and apply spell effects or even just maiden applying spell effects.

I have probably seen a total of like 5 yoricks since his rework sure its more than their used to be but considering after the intial omg he got reworked he went back to not being played its kinda annoying :P
