Yorick: the Oldest Champion

The Loganater··3 votes·532 views

Hello! I don't normally post on any LOL forum, but I've decided to break my silence to hopefully get some feedback from somebody on the Riot team on the state of Yorick Morri the Gravedigger!

Now I have been in love with this game since I started in season 2. I'm using the same account now as I did then. This game speaks t me aesthetically, and competitively. I am continuously impressed with Riots ability to create a fluid, ever changing competitive atmosphere. And every character comes out is something new and exciting. They are unique and each one of them in their own way, special both in character design, as well as game play mechanics.

But there is one thing that has bugged me over all these years. That is Yorick has been tweaked a total of five times since season two, none of which were significant. A range on Q increase, gold earned from killing ghouls, an armor buff and a few bug fixes. There was a time not long ago when he was in this boat along with a few other champions, e.g Karma and Poppy. Since then both those characters got full reworks leaving poor Yorick all alone. Not only that, but he hasn't received a single new skin since then, only a texture update along with every other old champion.

Yorick has been my main since I started playing. I love his character design and have grown accustom to his mechanics. But recently I've become very curious about when he will be shown a little love because gosh darn it, I love him. And I know you guys do to. So I am really, very interested in hearing about his status, however brief that statement may be.

Thank you Riot, you guys are awesome!

Can you people shut up about Yorick? Seriously.

He's getting reworked completely. A matter of fact, his rework is this year Riot has said MULTIPLE times. First it's gonna be Taric's complete rework, and visual updates+new skins. And later this year, Yorick again who will get all his skins updated, all his skills will be tweaked differently and everything.

Now shut up.
