Which one is better?
Wingborne Storm is good against Yorick, not necessarily great against everyone. I would put more faith into Wilding Claw on the normal solo top. Phoenix allows you to push, which is great against Yorick's summoning. Turtle is also a strong repeatable shield, which is GREAT against Yorick. Pushing the lane opens you up to jungle ganks, but equaling your opponents pushing can warrant great results.
Tl;DR
Phoenix Udyr is a very strong solo top counter to Yorick, but that doesn't mean its great against all champs. They are both situational choices.

I personally prefer maxing Turtle and then tiger, followed by bear. basically makes you unable to be pushed out of lane
Yea this is what I do also.
It's not really about being able to harrass yorick with the AOE as much as it is the fact that phoenix allows Udyr to push the lane and go take golems like HSGG did once he was itemed. He actually was getting beat, but udyr scales so so so much better than yorick, and once he was itemed he couldnt really die to shyvana gank since between the two of them yorick has the only cc which is a ****ty slow. And HSGG is a very very very good player, remember that too haha.

There are also more options. You can still max Iron Mantle first for more sustain.
So, what do you think?
