Hi i was just wondering why you have crit masteries like Lethality and Frenzy but no crit chance it would help alot if you send a reply or fix it if that might be horting the guide. Thank you for your time.
Ah, my bad. Haha, good spotting, i'll fix that now :)
and dont forget...PREPARE YOUR COFFIN TO THE SUMMONER RIFT!
Don't talk only about the notable masteries, talk about each and all of them, explain why you took them. Also about masteries, 9-21-0 is better for Yorick, as he likes to be built tanky. A high damage no tank Yorick is a dead Yorick. Once you put 9 points into offense and pick up Weapon Expertise , dump everything else into defense, like Relentless and Block , they will help you survive poke and escape bad fights.
Runes seem fine, but sometimes flat magic resist glyphs are better then scaling ones, if facing a top laner that does tons of magic damage, such as Teemo.
Why are you building Spirit of the Elder Lizard if you are just going to get rid of it late game? If you need the early sustain, get a philosopher's stone instead, it will increase your gold income even if you never upgrade it.
Black Cleaver is not a very viable item for Yorick, if going AD buy a Bloodthirster instead. Yorick can benefit from the Ionian Boots of Lucidity, as he is an AD caster after all. Doesn't he rely on his spells to do damage? Being able to summon more ghouls quickly is a good advantage for Yorick.
I talk about the notable masteries, as they are the ones that provide benefits that people would want to see, plus the majority of the people wouldn't read the reasoning behind each mastery. Of course, you can swap up your runes, generally you should either have two different runepages for top lane matchups, but if not, alot of people usually just run scaling magic resist for top lane. Black Cleaver is not as strong an AD item as others for Yorick, but I sometimes run it, and it works pretty well usually, so I just added it in there. I don't get Ionian Boots of Lucidity, as I generally try to cap out CDR early on, but, of course, you can choose to if you want. I build spirit of the elder lizard for a few different reasons, being;
1) Strong Early Game Harrass
2) Sustain
3) Counter-Jungling (If you're pushed up or ahead)
4) 10% CDR allows you to spam more in lane, further increasing your sustain and harrass.
You're free to vote down if you wish, but thanks for the feedback :)

This is a great guide I love it. thanks for making it.
Thanks! :)
why is there only 3 yorick guides and why is this only 63%??
I'm not sure. Although honestly, upon release this guide was quite horrid, I spent a fair amount of time fixing it up.
