Yorick Rework Idea (2016)

Some ideas for his abilities

P-Undead Servants Yorick's lantern spawns a ghoul every 30 seconds, he will stop spawning ghouls when he has 3, and the lantern will instead heal the one with the lowest amount of HP every 30 seconds. The ghouls protect Yorick, redirecting 5% of yorick's taken damage to themselves for every ghoul, stacks up to 15%. The ghouls have X% of Yorick's HP and X% of his AD. the ghouls follow Yorick and attack whatever he attacks.

Q-Shovel Sweep/Backslash 1st cast: Yorick strikes with his shovel in a semi-circle shaped area in the direction the ability was cast, dealng damage (+AD)to all enemies hit and granting him a burst of movement speed, Similar to Darius' Q, Yorick can move freely while casting this ability on the 1st and 2nd cast. Yorick's availible ghouls will also swipe in a 360 degree area around them, dealing 130% of their AD.

2nd cast: If Yorick succesfully hits a target with the 1st cast, he can recast the ability to slash once more,granting him another boost of movement speed, but doing this will make the cooldown of the ability longer. his ghouls will also swipe around them with this cast, dealing 130% of their AD once more.

W-Ravenous Leap (Name Suggested by NJALobo ) Yorick leaps (dash) forward and upon reaching the end of the dash or hitting and enemy champion, he will pin whatever he hit into the ground, rooting them for a short duration and dealing damage [+% of yorick's Max HP], his ghouls will stay at the original location for 0.5 seconds before quickly going to Yorick's destination, if he hits a champion and has ghouls availible when casting this ability, they will turn into Explosive ghouls, quickly charging towards the rooted target and exploding on impact.Ghoul's spawned by Yorick's R are also turned into explosive ghouls if they are currently alive.

E- Dirt Throw (So original) Yorick launches a long range but thin skillshot of dirt, slowing enemies hit and dealing damage. If he has ghouls availible, he will instead throw one of them, it will go through minions, dealing damage and fearing enemy champions hit.

R-Ghastly Demise (Name suggested by NJALobo ) Yorick opens a hole in the ground at the target location, after 3 seconds, it will rapidly spawn 6/8/10 ghouls in 3 seconds, during the 3 seconds it takes for the grave to open, enemies can hit it 5 times to destroy the grave, stopping any ghouls from spawning but reducing the cooldown for Yorick by 70%.

As far as Lore goes maybe he could be a gravedigger*[zombie-brand-mindblown]*

I hope Riot takes these into account when creating the rework. Have a nice day
