yorick....yeah not a name you read often while looking at the team compositions in the post game loading screen but it was a normal thing before his rework,he was the definition of an anti-fun lane-bully champion but even after his in my opinion successful rework and after that hipe of a new champion if you could say,you still don't see him that much.
as a yorick main i love him for many many reason i could go on for days but i have always wondered why is he put in such a shady corner why is the player base of one champion is very large but the player base of another is very small it's not that i made all of this to cry about why is yorick not that popular i actually like the fact that i see no yorick players other than me and some rare people i have met in the field.
the point of me writing this thing is i hope that a simple question would be answered.
what does the community think that has gone wrong with yorick after his rework and why haven't his pick rate gone up???

Honestly I think the main thing is he never really appealed to players that much. Like when his rework came out his play rates didn't go up that much. Not a lot of people actually tried him and now many newer players or returning players don't even think about him because they don't see him played.

When I first fought against a reworked Yorick I was annoyed by how insanely over powered he was. That is the reason I eventually tried him out and found him to be an insanely strong top laner. He can win majority of match ups and is a strong split pusher. He's also great in team fights.

Whenever my high elo friends invite me to custom games with Gold - Diamond ranked people I just choose Yorick so I stand a chance and I normally end up carrying or putting up a great fight because of how strong he is. I hate how he looks though, he's so ugly and has boring skins.

I loved old yorick even during the end of his days. He was extremely annoying has a laner and with a Black Cleaver + Iceborn Gauntlet all the "easy to kite" gig became a detail for all except Kalista and Ashe (coz of his Q ms as well).

Nowadays I just don't recognize him and that saddens me. Also, the fact that he is a splitpush bot doesn't appeal to me at all.
Thank you Tsuki for the sig!
