That is the dumbest reason to do anything in a game. Just because Copenhagen Wolves did it twice, of which, btw, I am aware, doesn't mean it is actually good. Also it was quite a while ago when they did that.


Well it proves that they had good results on it in scrims. Teams don't do anything without having any results in scrims. Plus, it was only two weeks ago.

Like, teams don't do anything if there is no sense at all in doing so.

Obviously. Although, they are the only team who has done that so it doesn't prove anything, not to mention that LCS meta is different. Ranked 5's environment in general is completely different from soloq.

From a general point of view, regarding the role of jungler, I don't really see any reason to run Yorick as opposed to any other meta pick right now. Especially considering Yorick has pretty good matchups as top and even as support.

Get the official Copenhagen Wolves' explanation on how, why, when, where, and who and then you can bring that up as argument. Just mentioning it that they did it twice in LCS games doesn't make an argument.

P.S. We could also bring up the famous Genja build with IE, BotRK, and Zephyr but I'm pretty sure most would agree that the build is inferior to what is generally used even though Genja has used it multiple times.

Hey, I used Jungle Karma :(.

Jungle ADCs are pretty niche, since they tend to lack ganking and clearing power, which is why the only one even remotely close to mainstream jungle ADC is Twitch, but even then he's mostly just a cheese strategy.

Jungle Yorick is slightly different in the sense that he's actually got a usable kit geared towards jungling.

I think the reason CW plays Jungle Yorick is because it's airwacks best jungler. Its not like it can compete with Lee Sin, Elise, Evelynn, etc.

Also CW is 0-2 with Jungle Yorick

But it was still in LCS, therefore: Broken OP!

That doesn't mean he's a bad jungler ;-)

I haven't been able to test him myself so I sadly cannot judge for myself.

Someone mentioned Ezreal jungle. It was a Velocity strat where Nk Inc would come to lanes to help push. It worked a couple of times because teams weren't rotating fast enough to defend the fast push.
