Just got done with my first game as yorick, he seems remarkable unexciting... not underpowered, just not exciting. Maybe it was my build or the enemy team but i just felt like i was standing around a lot not causing a whole ton of damage. I was just wondering if anyone else had a similar/different view on him?

Thanks to Xiaowiriamu for the awesome Olaf sig.

I think he's Morde's brother. He's not that strong, but not easy to kill. He's an offtanker.
I played my first match and I liked him, but still have to work on a build. I cant get my Morde's build because Yorick has mana. The recommended items are good, but it doesnt have armor there. Maybe changing spirit visage for randuins is fine.

He's very boring, and inefficient.

Minions die too fast to live up to his "the first minion champion" title.
Mana pool disappears like water into the ground.

And his Ultimate just doesn't hold up compared to Zilean.

Plus, he's got this horrible bug giving opponents 50+ kills within minutes.

Imma go ahead and point out that Yorrick is pretty boss. He's not a "Minion champion," that part is exaggerated. However, I tend to think of them as mobile totems. His ult is good. very good in fact. Casting in on a Glass Cannon carry makes the team fight a pretty good GG, or even casting it on yourself for some extra punishment time for those who tread on your shallow graves. As soon as people start to realize "Oh, this isn't a real revive, just a temporary one," that's when you have fearless zombie allies, charging in to wreak havoc. The short lifespan of his minions is a bit of a problem though. Granted, their bonuses own hard. If you don't rely on them to do damage, but rather for their effect buffs, and damage increase to Yorrick himself, then you can really start to get a hang of him. They're excellent for creep farming, and I have yet to try, but jungling might be viable as well.

All in all, with a few (minor) tweaks, I think Yorrick is a great addition to the League of Legends.

Sheen > warmog's > atma's ?

I figure the health would help minions a bit and atma's for some AD from the HP. Sheen obviously hurts when you do E and W then follow up with Q as the minions and the Ability itself boost the next hit. That would be my starting build what do you think?

For the few i've played, i got the Glacial Shroud (pretty sure its right) for the mana, cd reduc, and armor. After i got that I didnt oom once. then i followed up with almost exactly your build followed by sunfire>BFsword
