PLEASE Change Arclight Yorick's Voice

Hey there, I've been a Yorick player off and on since he released and I still stuck around after the rework. I don't play him in ranked but he's fun to bust out in normals, which I play the most of anyways, and I'm extremely hyped that he is FINALLY getting a new skin. However, his voice does not at all fit the "Holy Knight" personality that Arclight conveys. Varus is corrupted by a darkin and going for vengeance, so his Arclight skin was changed to remove the corruption sound and make it make more sense. Arclight Vel'Koz has his voice changed around to kind of make holy sounds in the background. PLEASE tell me you are changing Yorick's voice in a similar fashion? I know 1350 is technically a fair price for all the models of the ghouls and maiden and new effects you had to create, more than the usual champion because he has so many pets, but please go one step further. The skin can be a solid 10/10 if you just edit the voice to match, you can even use the same filter you did for Vel'Koz.

Hi Naalith,

There are currently no plans to add voice processing for Arclight Yorick. We feel that he's still human, he's just wielding a different source of power. I think it makes sense in Vel'Koz's case as he's a Void entity, but Yorick is human.

It's just a pre-release, they'll probably add a voice filter on the final product

There's no indication of Archlight Yorick at the moment, but he's made voice mods for Archlight Vel'koz and Vayne, so it's not out of the question. Try leaving a comment on one of his videos about Yorick and see if people get behind you.

Just to be clear, these are fan-made mods that are not recorded by the original voice actor, and they do not provide players with the skin associated with it. They are safe to use as they don't provide you with any kind of unfair advantage or stolen content.

i love it when a holy skin for a bright touch up on a dark character just says "all my friends are dead" while walking to lane. of course i mean it just fits the concept 100% Mordekaiser

I don't see why it's nessecary, he sounds just like most of "Old Man Paladins", that I've listened through DnD and the like. It's not like his normal VO has that much processing to start with, that it reaches to the point of Velkoz or Varus, who actually sound corrupted/different.

Hey guys, Riot Ponytail here. We could really go for some big sum of skin money right about now but the truth is we don't wanna put unnecessary effort into it, so here goes.
