Look, I just played a game as Yasuo and got destroyed by Yorick, I went like 2-5 in lane. Normally that's fine cause, ( I won the game)I'm not that skilled of a player and sometimes I make stupid mistakes that cost me my lane. However, playing against Yorick just felt entirely unfair. He can heal, and yet poke for a lot of damage, but that is not the most frustrating thing. His slows almost guarantees that I take a few hits while being unable to poke back, AND if one does manage to poke back he does extra damage while healing most of the damage done to him.

I can stall for his mana to run out but if I do I feel like I'm missing so much cs, and on top of that his abilities cost barely any mana so when I try to fight he can still to my surprise use all of his ghouls. To make things more frustrating, when I do out trade him in lane and decide to commit to killing him, he suddenly gains a surprising amount of health back, but even if I do out damage his heal, he gains a massive increase in movespeed that makes it nearly impossible to gank and/or catch him. In addition to all of that his ultimate makes it nearly impossible to win a 1v1 without it ending at a loss or a draw at best (at least in my experiences).

I just don't feel like playing League anymore after playing a game against Yorick. People can lose a couple of games and it tilts them, but for me, facing a Yorick in lane just makes me feel empty and upset, because I feel that there is nothing I can do to even stay in lane, he can constantly poke me under the turret without any loss of health. To think anyone can buy him and play him scares me, I'm glad they don't, buy I really don't want to ban Yorick out of fear. Yes it may be fun to win a tough game as a team, but I just feel like I lose no matter who wins.

enemy first picked yorick. I played nasus. He didn't want to spam ghouls for some reason.

The thing about yorick, is his ghouls can't follow you if they can't see you. Walk into a bush and they go away. although like a nunu item 3123 get rekt yorick mains I have shown your true weakness xD I Was fighting one as kennen, He'd have his jungler duo come in and use his ult to tower dive and absorb the tower shots. But it costed them their game because they lost so many objectives because of it

Well, you were playing Yasuo... Yasuo has a lot of match ups like that. Probably not the best pick if you don't want to have some shitty lane match ups.

Ever played vs singed? You lose by trying to interact with him. By far the least fun character to play against in league.

Yorick isn't all that strong right now anyway tbh; as Yas, you should be shoving the first 2 waves, hitting level 2 first, and pressuring him hard. Yorick doesn't have good wave clear, and relies on sustain/poke/extended trades. If you go in on him super early, he'll struggle, since he usually builds tear first. After you get some lifesteal/sustain, things become even easier, since you can just kill the ghouls for gold without losing HP.

1 auto attack and a q and any ghoul is gone also his ghouls give your free mobility with your e. lots of champions have high spell damage and yorick cant build full dmaage like yasou can he is squishy with out any defensive items with little mobility or utility his w slows for a little bit on cast and barely does anything. yoricks mana pool early game is blitz cranks mana pool its incredibly low and his range is very low

I picked Malphite into Yorick. yorick got destroyed, and by the end of the match he was so angry and toxic I'm pretty sure he got a 9 player report.

Does that count?
