Yorick Rework

Sereníty··2 votes·676 views

I realise that the do over of Yorick's abilities has been in the game for some time.

As a returning player who has been playing LOL since S1, I just wanted to say "Fuck you, fuck you in your stupid asses."

There has been many a rework of champions since release, some I agreed with, some I did not. This however was the proverbial straw. What were you thinking? The champion was fine. Not only fine, but fun to play! Maybe not exactly over represented in the meta, but you know what? Not every champion needs to be! If literally every single champion was considered viable in the meta then it would be an utter cluster fuck!

I took it quietly when you took away AP Yi, I said nothing when you took away AP Tryndamere. I muttered quietly to myself when you decided Katarina needed to be destroyed. No longer.

Fuck it, if you all want to make your game completely devoid of fun then that's up to you, it is after all, your game. I just wanted you to know that you have finally broken me. I will not be playing again.

GG, WP.

New yorick is fun af though.

Edit... Re read your post, and literally none of it makes sense. Sorry fam, the new kat is far from "destroyed."

Honestly the new rework would be a huge improvement and bring justice to the old rework, if the zombies just weren't so stupidly unreliable or hard to achieve.

Downvoted because you have no idea what you're alking about. Fun is for the most part subjective. The general subjective opinion on old Yorick was that he was boring, he didn't give you much to do other than hit buttons, spawn minions, watch them harrass and kill enemies; furthermore, he was pretty much dead weight once team fighting erupted because none of his abilities offered anything at all to team scenarios. Plus, when he wasn't nerfed into invalidity, he was atrocious to face in lane - he was imbalanced to the exteme.

New Yorick changed all that while preserving him as a necromancer. He actually gets to do things other than watch his minions, and he can throw his weight around the map and team fights. Yes, he does not play the same, but he's infinitely better than what he was.

So your down voting my subjective opinion because of a subjective opinion. I see logic has escaped this one.

Yorick was so anti fun before his rework that they actually removed him from free champ rotations. I remember a week leading up to his rework that when he went on free week riot removed him from it and didnt even replace the champ so we had 1 less champ on free week.

Yorick was not fine. he was really dumb to play against. He still is but at least his gameplay is more than spam E as fast as possible.

Also Kat isnt destroyed, She is significantly stronger than she was previously. Old kat a hecarim could make useless in the fight by knocking her out of her ult. New kat dont give a fuck

Also AP yi was very oppressive and wasnt what they wanted the champion to do, so they fixed it. Same with AP trynd

As a player who has been playing since PREASEASON 1, you are clearly stupid.

Whilst Oleandervine did somewhat invalidate his argument by using subjectivity to try and outweigh subjectivity, at least he tried to justify his argument for why I'm wrong. Posting, "You are stupid." doesn't add anything, why am I stupid? If you are going to reply in this thread then take two seconds and think about why you think I'm stupid then post that. God forbid it might actually lead to a constructive argument on the internet...

I large number of people would disagree with on him being fine in his old state.
