TO GET TO THE POINT, SKIP TO SECOND PARAGRAPH

Rito has done a very good job of filling in the slots in champion element. What I mean by that is this: Every champion is unique in it's own way. We needed a champ to personify poison? Boom, Twitch. Fire? Brand. Stone? Malphite and the list goes on UNTIL you get to the undead. Yorick's role in League of Legends is not what it could be, and I'm pretty sure we can all agree with that. What I have wanted for a long time, is for the TRAINER element to be filled. We don't have any champs that exercise authority over another creature or creatures to do their bidding other than Yorick, and Lulu. I had a dream about a champion element that could "Train" it's subjects to fight for him. It could have multiple subjects that fight for him. They follow him and grow with him. Need a group of bodyguards? send a defensive command to the units and have them encircle you and grant bonus armor or something. Need an elite group of hitmen? Send an attack command to the units and have them aggro an enemy unit. Perhaps you need some quick vision but can't carve out the opportunity to check a brush.. Right click and send one of the units there to scout the area itself. Yorick's current abilities also give room for improvement. If he hits his opponent with a shovel, a ghoul shows up. Ghouls should strictly come out of the ground if these abilities are to be in line with his lore and champion element. In addition, Yorick should be able to control one or more ghouls like mordekaiser, only, the ghoul or ghouls have their own abilites during this control, such as dashing, slashing, and slowing.

This is how I think Yorick could fulfill his role. These are the changes I suggest: -Ghouls appear STRICTLY out of the ground, or have some other association with the ground. -One or more Ghouls can be controlled and given special abilities, perhaps like Kha'zix' ulti passive. -Ghouls still lose life over time, but may be kept alive longer by attacking(Just like SION) -The majority of Yorick's Power comes from his ghouls and therefore is not very strong without them present -His ultimate shies away from being like Zilean's, in that it involves a ghoul army rising from the ground enacting revenge for their fallen king. -Ghouls are leveled up as individuals, possessing some of Yorick's traits, yet branching out in their own uses. -Yorick can walk over dead bodies of champs and 'salvage' in whole or in part, some of the champ to use for later in upgrades or combination ghouling. -Yorick could have a legit dragon trainer skin, giving him mastery over feisty little dragons, and also SKYROCKETING the skin sales for dragon trainer. These are just some of the ideas. Yorick Yorick Yorick Yorick Yorick

It doesn't feel right. Don't get me wrong, I actually like the idea, but it doesn't feel right for Yorick. 'Close, but no cigar' so to speak. My gut feeling is that the ghouls shouldn't be trained, or trainable--perhaps more 'managed' or 'controlled.' As if Yorick just barely kept a grip on them through a tremendous power of his will. But even that doesn't quite feel right because Yorick is undead himself. My feeling is that these ghouls should be near manic, and perhaps Yorick simply unleashes them on the world to wreak havoc for his enemies. Though I do like the idea of an ult that unleashes a tide of undead. (Yorick definitely deserves a rework though. He's kind of stilted.)

Singed Teemo Cassiopeia are more poison then Twitch

Azir Commander of an army

Annie Master of a demonic bear

Orianna Master of a killing machine

Zyra has specialize pet somewhat

Heimerdinger would represent the opposite of Yorick, where yorick constantly send pet at you Heim has you come to his pet/units

Personally I don't think Yorick can work with specialize ghoul. Right now the way he work is bombarding you with ghoul and i think it he should retain that aspect. Like what CrimsonCobra3 say he should't have complete control over the ghoul all he do is unleashes them. Personally I would love to see a dedicated summoner in league but I don't think it would work. It would either feel too efficient and enemies can't get pass his ghoul or his ghoul are too weak and they feel useless.

Also i think Ghoul can appear out of his shovel it is a family heirloom that hold the soul of his ancestor.
