My personal thought about Yoricks Yorick rework is that it's good in ways but bad in others, I think the wall he now gets is bad, I like his new ult though. I think they should've made his passive every Blank seconds Yorick brings a ghouls from a grave and a Blank max of ghouls at a time and keep his old Q, W and E, his ult could make it so as long as it is alive you have an unlimited number of ghouls and its current passive. And for his other moves instead of spawning the minions it empowers his autos with different effects and damage boosts and if it kills a minion it spawns a grave for that type of golem and the ghouls have the effect his auto did.

not sure if he's meant to be a late game champ or not but he does not feel very good at all with just one item. seems like he desires too many stats all at once and I don't really care much for Trinity Force on him.

for being a champ supposed to excel at splitpushing, he's pretty shitty at it given that his ghouls and Maiden are the first things the turret will aggro onto, so they never actually last long at all. I have better success just trying to teamfight most of the time

I had so much fun against Yorick as Nasus and he wasn't too tough to deal with as Udyr I've heard a few Gnar and Yasuo complain about him.

I think he's a fun pick that fits well into top lane; he isn't unstoppable, but seems to switch up what people should be thinking in champ select.

Visual wise he is pretty boring. His new model isn't near as interesting looking as the old one. He kinda looks like a bigger Taric. His abilities are kinda boring looking as well. His ghouls are so so but are in need of some detail/color pallet changes. Tbh I'm most disappointed with the maiden. She looks a lot like some protos unit from starcraft to me doesn't really give off the ghostly spectre vibe at all.

Ability wise he seems ok. The E could have been more interesting if it had some pairing with his wall same with Q. The wall block is kinda boring at this point since creating impassable terrain isn't a new concept at all. Woulda been more fun if he had more a skils play off eachother more than they do now and the wall had instead been a mass graveyard creation with buffs to him and debuffs to enemy for fighting on it. It would be cool if they change the maiden to alter based on his item build path. Like a visual change if he focused on AD vs APvs Tanky.

Also in the future due to his summons he may end up going down the Zyra path of lack of skin creations. They could just alter him but that would be kinda lame.

Pretty damn fun. I dislike most of the juggernauts, but Yorick...he feels satisfying. Leading a bunch of minions, the maiden, and your own zombies down a lane to take a tower just feels powerful you know?

He hits like a truck and I love it.

I really, really enjoy it. I've been playing him in the jungle more than top lane, and his ganks are horrifyingly good if you land a W. He has great objective control with his ult and minions, and can kill herald pretty early with help, and solo it later on.

I like his aesthetics, though his walk animation kind of bothers me if you look at it from behind (looks like he's wearing cowboy boots and is totally bow-legged), but the gongs and bells and everything you hear all the time, I love it. When you walk down a lane with a giant wave of minions, your zombies, and your ult... you feel unstoppable.

Gameplay-wise, he's really fun. He has a lot of damage if he gets to you, but is easy to kite (kinda like Susan), and can go either a Triforce build for damage, or an IBG build for being tanky. I've taken him top, jungle and support, and find him the most fun in the jungle, and had pretty good success with him as a support (he works kinda like a Trundle support). I don't have any complaints about his kit, but his E is really easy to dodge.

Overall though, I might become a Yorick main. I'm really enjoying this rework. xD
