Well at least now we have a valid reason that Yorick isn't in the free champ rotation anymore.

The problem was that the part of his ult where it revives a champion for 10 seconds, is coded in a way that classifies the revived champion as a pet (ex:tibbers) This coding caused it so that when an ascended champ was revived by Yorick's ult, the ascended xerath would sometimes not re-spawn after they died

The true valid reason is because Riot believes that Yorick is the most toxic champion in the game (and to an extent they are right).

Toxic champion? I thought that went to Urgot...

You take that back, Man Crab Zombie Robot Dude is nowhere near the most toxic champion in the game.

At least he has very clear counterplay, as in dodge his E and he's way past fucked.

I seriously bought him just because he was the last champion I never tried because he was never on free week. Was disappointed.

you don't like Sir-Spam-Alot? Then let me tell you a bad joke. Yorick walks into a bar........but there's no counter XD.....

I'm not saying he's bad, I'm saying he doesn't click with me as well as I hoped. His gameplay style wasn't what I imagined.

ah.....but I was trying to be corny..... item 3070 ...............srry to hear that though. What about his playstyle don't you like (now I'm curious)?

Just that it's a lot more...basic. I pretty much thought ghouls would last longer and have more of an effect, but it's more just really basic abilities with a little ghost that pops up for 5 seconds that you can't even really see that does nothing much before going away. Twin Shadow's ghosts are more satisfying to use.

I thought they'd be like swirling around him in a big circle and messing things up, weaving all over the battlefield to whack everything. A lot like the proposed rework for him actually, though not quite.
