Yorick in Ascension

Akindled Soul·Jan 14, 2017·13 votes·1,426 views

If you ever played Yorick, you'll probably know that his Ghoul summoning is based on whether he last hits with a Q, kill an enemy champion, use Ultimate, etc.

HOWEVER, I just recently played Yorick in Ascension and...apparently you can't summon your Ghouls on your own accord since there are no minions/monsters to constantly summon them from. I find it really aggravating and overlooked as the Ghouls are a key part of his kit. Although in most other game modes this is not a problem, in Ascension this is very bad as he is underwhelming without them being constantly up.

My suggestion is that you allow Yorick to "slowly" summon one Ghoul every X seconds and such as the game prolongs. Also let him start with full team of Ghouls.

Thank you.

Kindred loses half of their passive, which is a pretty substantial part of their kit Shyvana can't stack her passive at all Veigar can't get stacks Nasus can't get stacks I'm sure there are others I'm just not thinking of right now. But basically, he's not the only one that kind of gets shafted in ascension.

I agree on most terms of those champions. However, you do have to keep in mind how they stack their passives and how much power they give to a champion. Kindred is sort of fine since they can just assist on a kill and still get stacks. Veigar can stack his passive just by hitting any champion with his abilities.

Nasus and Shyvana, however, are rather crippled by this. But I don't think too much as most people will probably play AP Nasus on certain game modes like Ascension and Shyvana's passive isn't too significant as it's just 5 Armor and Magic Resist per stack.

Overall, a lot of champions that has certain passives are shafted by certain game modes. Most of which are not too significant although I can be wrong.

shyvana is easy to fix, get the passive stacks upon taking down xerath

kindred can still hunt people so i see no issue, its kinda the same as sion

veigar can still gather stacks too

nasus does get shafted he might need some help

Veigar passive stacks every time he hits a champion with abilities. Play ap Nasus .

AP Nasus as opposed to an actual mage that deals actual damage.

The only good thing about AP Nasus is the ridiculous pushing power of E against minion waves. If you're using it as your only source of damage in a teamfight you're basically just a worse incarnation of every other caster in the game.

Plz check his scalings before talking crap. His ult also scales really well meaning you can play similar with Swain by trying to keep the enemy in your e and ult range. His q is useless?Get a item 3100 and you are set.
