(Champion Concept): Yorick Rework

Ours10589·1/30/2016, 6:03:27 PM·1 votes·496 views

Hello Everybody! I have been playing league for a few months now and I thought it was about time to join the boards. So, I have been thinking about this for a while, and I would like to propose my idea for a Yorick rework (if it ever happens).

Abilities: _Passive- Unholy Covenant _ While an ability is active, Yorick takes 5% reduced damage and takes less damage from basic attacks.

Q- Ghost of War A ghost appears in a violent explosion, dealing 30/60/90/120/150 damage on impact. As the ghost attacks, it will sap health from it's target, healing Yorick for 40% of the damage dealt. The ghost can deal 8/16/24/32/40 per auto attack.

W- Ghost of Pestilence A ghost appears in a violent explosion, dealing 30/60/90/120/150 damage on impact. As the ghost attacks, Yorick gains mana back for 30% of the damage dealt.

E- Choke Chain Yorick throws a chain in a targeted direction. The chain will latch on to the first enemy it collides with, dealing 40/65/90/115/140 damage, and slowing their movement speed by 30%. While the chain is active, Yorick deals increased damage to the target.

R- Omen of Death Yorick marks a target enemy for death, both the target and Yorick dealing increased damage to each other. The mark lasts for 8 seconds, and if neither Yorick or the target are killed within that time, they will both take fatal damage. If Yorick kills the target, he will be healed for 110/140/170 and gain extra gold for the kill. If the target kills Yorick, they will be healed for 110/140/170 and gain extra gold for the kill.

He is scheduled for a rework after the mage update.

Q and W are too similar the passive does not go with his lore at all the e doesnt really make any sense and the whole concept is hard to base is this a tank a mage something else? It is really hard to tell as the abilities are all over the place.... also he is getting an update very soon.

okay so i yorick main,

and honestly this is all very very stupid.

your Q basically dumps every one of his current abilities in to one and makes it shittier than all of them.

your W is basically just his current E with mana instead while also giving him life steal on the Q (combining both leave him with no issues managing either his HP or mana pools)

E again does almost the same as what he currently does with the W, but is worse.

R - just when i thought the suggestion could not get worse, you set it up so his ult is literally suicidal to use, AND helpful to the enemy when he gets killed in a team fight.

this is all BEFORE i get in to the fact that you completely destroy/ignore his basic character traits of using ghouls to augment his damage.

if i could telepathically punch you in the balls right now i would (please tell me if it worked)

so you do not make this sort of epic waste of time again, some advice, please, please please do not assume you can remake a champion people (like me) have played since he was released when you have only played the game, let alone the champ more than a handful of times. (from what i see of your match history you play mostly support, so you do not even seem to have the experience playing against him in top lane either.)

frankly if you dont even have mastery 4 in a champion you have no business talking about what should be reworked and what shouldn't.
