Major Yorick Rework Ideas (pls read)
Okay so there has been lot's of talk on Yorick due to his upcoming rework that should appear late 2016 or early 2017. Riot has probably finalized his kit, but I think summoning Ghouls is too much like Azir and his sand soldiers. I like the grave digging personality about Yorick, and this is what I think his rework should be like. I believe that more abilities should work around minions and bushes and you can see that my abilities show this.
Yorick: The Grave Lord Not much is known about him, we know that he lives in the Shadow Isles, and we know he commands the dead. Recently people have seen him digging up the dead, and manipulating them to do his bidding. Nobody knows why but again not much is known about him. (I'm no writer)
<<<DISCLAIMER>>>: I am not giving lot's of statistic because I am no champion creator and I have no experience balancing champions.
> Passive: Find Them Every 10 seconds Yorick's lamppost lights up and gives vision in bushes to him and his allies. This effect lasts for 1 second. Cooldown does not affect the lamppost cooldown reduction but does affect the vision range and time to 4 seconds at 40% cdr.
(So think of Quinn's E but on a passive.)
> Q: Hidden Active: For 4/4.5/5/5.5/6 seconds Yorick summons bushes in a circle on and around him. If he is in the bushes he gains extra movement speed and attack speed. If his passive Find Them is on while he cast this ability, then he gains permanent vision of the bushes and gains bonus health and attack damage. If any enemy is caught inside then they are slowed. If they are snared by his Doom's grasp then they are stunned for 1 second.
(So you might be thinking, THIS ABILITY IS OP! But it isn't really, Yorick has no long range abilities in this kit so he can't abuse the bush vision. This ability can be used both as an escape and an engage. There is counter play by stepping out of the bush.)
> W: Breath's Loom Active: Yorick casts a rage spell on a minion, if they die in the next 3 seconds they will transform and go attack the desired target that Yorick wants to attack. Yorick can cast this on any minion and kill any minion that is affected. The rage lasts for 3 seconds. 4 charges with a cooldown time of like 10 seconds. The get extra damage and movement speed and Health. If you kill a minion that is affected with Breath's Loom with a raged minion than the new raged minion becomes even more powerful, and you can do this up to four times of course with your charges.
(Again I am not a statistic guy so I can't give a good cooldown time, and YES he can kill his OWN minions, this works well with his ult. He won't get gold from killing his own minions though.)
> E: Doom's Grasp Active: For 8 seconds Yorick's shovel becomes enchanted with the spirits of the dead and deals damage based on his max health. Every 4th auto attack he snares the enemy. The snare lasts for 1 second.
(Think of Yi's E but every 4th auto attack you snare them like nautilus. Also this encourages people to go tank.)
> R: Summon Pain Yorick summons a number of raged minions based on 25% of his creep score. They last for 6 seconds.
(For example; If I have 200 cs, then I summon 50 raged minions. Allied minions that you killed with Breath's Loom count as cs.)
