How strong will the new yorick be

d4rkshock·Aug 24, 2016·1 votes·1,068 views

The yorick rework is here after 3 years. He's good top and jg. His. Kit is interesting and isn't nearly as frustrating. I want to buy him so I can try it out. I like to exparament from time to time. Now urgot is the new worst champion. Next in line is ww, Akali, eve, Pantheon, mundo, cho'gath, urgot, galio, swain (he has 3 mowhawks), (better nerf) irellia, rammus, nunu, mordakaiser, and the diver reworks. Anyways his ganks are good. I don't see him as a mid or support. He will be a good splitpushes. He seems like undying from dota but as a carry instead of a support. He is a good duelist. His ult is simular to undying's e which is a tombstone that spawns zombies and stays for 30 seconds or until it its destroyed (let's just hope yorick isn't too big of a threat in professional games but still strong like what happened to undying in dota). Now you can do shit. How strong is he. Also top or jg???

Wait at least 2 weeks after Yorick rework, and some more senseable and reasonable answer might surface on the board. At this point no one knows.

And no the "new worst champion" is Azir.

Azir is just a hard to play champion. He has the highest skillcap. Even professionals had problems playing him while he was broken.

Before the 6.14 patch yes, now he is just bad.

Nunu is even worse. Kled and ryze don't count since people haven't mastered them yet. Poppy support isn't a thing anymore. So urgot is no. 3 he's considered a troll pick and his visuals are far below the industry standards. Shark take has better graphics. I bet nunu and urgot are next after ww. Divers will probably be the next major class rework. Thos refers to a non bursty champion who's purpose is to dive and kill a high priority target or sometimes the whole backline and have no actual escape menmechanisms. Just to clarify, yi and nocturne are divers and not assassins They are too balanced to be strong again so they either get ahead and do what they want to do and are useful or don't and just become a detriment to the team. Especially shyvana since she needs to farm alot and that leaves your team having to improvise for 15 min although you do slow their jg down by stealing camps but yi and nocturne can't do that. Yi can only wreak havoc if he gets ahead. Jax and Xin Zhao are hypercarries and suck when behind. They both need verry expensive items. Nocturne is just a degenerate champion where one item or new champion can make him op and same with shyvana so they need to take them into consideration Riven and fiora are more like skirmishers so they won't be included. Bit anyways urgot, azir, and nunu are bad champions. We need to wait until s7. They still have a plethora of champions that have been problematic like cho'gath, swain, galio,mundo, irellia, etc. They aren't op but unhealthy.

Well your title was "How strong will the new yorick be", so we all assumed you are discussing how "strong" all those champions listed, rather than how "disfunctional" their kit is. Hence I said azir is the worst as in he is the weakest.

But I do agree with most of what you said there is a bunch or champions that have really awkard or outdated kits. Some champions you mentioned does have a "bad" kit, which I think you meant as in disfunctional or poorly designed rather than just weak.

The next part is just me explaining why Azir is the weakest atm. You don't really have to read it if you ain't interested.

If you check champion.gg you will see this out of all the champions going into different roles. Midlane Azir has the 42.41% winrate. The 3 other cases that is lower than that is Nunu Top, Nunu Support, and Kled jungle.

Both of those are not Nunu strongest role, which is jungling of course, and argueably quite troll to pick him in those roles. For Kled, ppl are just trying him out in the jungle since he is new, thus the low winrate, and tbh Kled probably is best suited for Top. Nunu and Kled both do better with higher winrate in their meta role.

Thus, I said Azir is the worst champion in terms of "How stong".

I think more ppl are happy that he is nerfed since the player base that plays him compare to those that don't are heavily in favor of the "don't".

He will have an ult that one-shots everyone, including his teammates, all at the same time and regardless of their location on the map.

That's how stronk he will be.

New worst champion is Azir hands down, and Kindred but Kindred are getting some buffs on PBE.

Cho'Gath and Galio are weak? What the fuck is wrong with you?

PS: I'm asking that as an actual question. I'm just amazing how anyone could POSSIBLY think they're weak.

Just watch Stonewall's video on champions to be reworked in the future and it explains everything. Cho'gath is only works if the meta is in his favor. If combo champions are meta, so is he. Then he leaves after they get nerfed. He just sandbags lane and then people exploit his weaknesses heavily. besides I never said he's weak, I said riot wants to rework him. Galio has powerful abilities but he's highly telegraphed and very sluggish. You can make these two work sometimes but won't work most of the time. Also Akali and irellia are on the list and they actually work. I play Akali mid and it works. Irellia probably still works. I tried cho'gath not too long ago and didn't do so good late game. The reason those champions are being reworked is because they are broken when strong or their kit is weak. Like mundo can double dip into his gold so he basically has free money. That's why riot wants to rework him.

Ohhhh. I thought you were implying that they were weak, since you said he was next in line after calling Urgot "the worst champion". Whoops! Thanks for not taking offense to that.

Also, thanks for explaining the rest to me.
