yorick's power curb is a mess.

Sooo can we make up our minds on yoricks power curve please.

Is yorick supposed to be strong early or not?

Because right now his lvl 1-5 is embarrassingly terrible and riot has repeatedly gutted his early game damage output which has put him in awkward spot because he doesn't exactly have the best late game scaling. And comparing him to Jax/ ireila/Darius who all have strong early games plus hard scale it doesn't make any sense.

So either 1, increases yorick's scaling so he actually can do something in late game besides run it down in side lanes.

Or 2, make him a lane bully again like every other juggernaut so he doesn't lose lane to every champ besides nasus.

First time seeing the term "power curb"...

Same thing can be said of Aatrox and his balancing mess. Is he gonna be early or late? Currently he's neither since anything that can match his aggression will at some point put his ass in the dirt before midgame. (Not to mention the plethora of early game nerfs toward him) And fixing his late game issue? God, the answer is so obvious, but they dont want to even touch it because they want Aatrox to remain a balancing nightmare like he was in his previous iteration. https://www.reddit.com/r/AatroxMains/comments/9iz90i/i_like_new_aatrox_but_some_things_need_to_change/ This guy couldn't hit the answer any more dead-on than that. Sucks that Jag's work is being muddied and left in a semi-viable state, which was something he was aiming to fix with the rework.

Sucks that Yorick also had to eat the ass of the "meta" balance team. Hate to say it but they need either a shakeup or have community and pro feedback be more influencing to balance decisions (lets face it, this whole "main" balancing shit doesn't matter anymore for champs like Yasuo or Riven, especially Riven. Riven, a champ who is "hard to play" has a 3 to 4% playrate throughout every ELO. Who knows how many are "mains").

Honestly. I hope riot forgets Yorick . His name is a target for rick&morty fans, and that community is some how more toxic than league.

God help us if they start coming here.
