Something from Nexus Siege I think, but it isn't even in the mode.

Saaame singed support is really fun and good despite what others may say

I actually can see him working support with the wall and maiden of mist

I think his minions might steal too much of the farm as support. Sort of like Heimer support. It works for lane push, but the ADC will only be at half the farm of the enemy.

I heard him talking about item 3068 in one of his quotes, so I definitely want to use that for non-subliminal advertisement reasons. Also taking item 3512 cause of the triple lane split push with his Ult. I think I will probably do something like this:

item 3068 item 3512 item 3053 item 3748 item 3742 item 3111

and see how things go from there.

You don't need item 3042 any more, the specifically changed his spell setup so that item 3070 wouldn't be needed since you're no longer spamming spells.

item 3078 is clearly a must, since his Q is an empowered basic attack that will get bonus damage and give him a speed boost from triforce. item 3512 should be good for extra split push power. Past that you might want some more damage items. Keep in mind that Yorick is a bruiser, not just a tank.

item 3078 item 3071 item 3156 item 3143 item 3047 item 3512 would probably be a good final build, with plenty of resistance and AD, also 40% CDR for more ults and minion spawns.

You should also build up resolve into Strength of Ages for the 300 health late game, since minions can't proc thunderlord's. After that go Cunning tree into mana regen.

I'm kind of tired of Trinity Force being crammed onto every champion just cause. It doesn't actually give him optimal stats for what he's trying to achieve. Yorick doesn't seem heavy into auto-attacking, so the Trinity Force wouldn't be much of an advantage to him and he'd honestly do better using Iceborn Gauntlet for the slow field Spellblade mechanic. Yorick seems designed to hinder opponents and overwhelm them with his ghouls, with minor emphasis on his auto attacking. Adding another slow and sticking potential into his arsenal would better fit that mechanic that what Trinity Force offers, especially since he'll be building Black Cleaver, and the Phage mechanic won't stack.

Well you really could build item 3078 on any champion because it's a huge ball of stats that's overall very decent and valuable to most champions. Though Trinity force seems too expensive for some champions. I think his AD scalings doe make it far better to build an AD item than a sheen.

Now I should note that I haven't actually played Yorick but these items based on simply reading his scalings and watching some game play I have come up with these thoughts.

I would think item 3142 or item 3074 would be a good first item for split pushing effectively followed by item 3071 if there are tanks on the enemy team as it also provides cooldown reduction, armour shred, damage and health with the phage passive. Go with item 3158 because I figure cooldown reduction is very important to Yorick in particular. item 3022 would be good for chasing enemies down and sticking to them. item 3742 is definitely a good item on Yorick and works well with his slow.

My final build would be: item 3142 item 3071 item 3742 item 3158 item 3156 item 3026

Some experimental theory crafting for Yorick's release. item 3146 seems like it might be valuable on Yorick if you don't pick up item 3022 since you could steal the enemies movement speed and use some of the ap it offers on top of healing but I'd personally have to wait to find out. item 3153 might be decent if you're versing a champion stacking hp but if Yorick's attack speed scalings are crap then I don't recommend it.

dunkeroniAug 25, 20161 votes

If you think Yorick isn't built around auto attacking, then you should go watch the recording of the livestream riot did.

In any case, you still should build something to bonus his auto since he has an empowered auto, and he needs to build AD and HP anyway since his ghouls scale off of both.

redfeenixAug 25, 20161 votes

You don't need manamune new Yorick doesn't have e mana problems.

He has huge scaling on his q (160℅ AD) SO stacking ad would mskr him hit like a truck

He gets free ms in his kit and has an aoe cc so I dont think stacking ms is too important.

Why don't you go try him out? Personally I found him really boring. Just spam q all day just like nasus.

Sept nasus is more fun

I don't think he'll need Muramana, I think Triforce, Death's Dance, Sunfire or Deadman's, Spirit Visage, Sterak's Gage, and boots will be amazing on him though.
