No hate intended but, your guide still advertises chrysalis which has been removed ages ago, I don't think i can read through it if it still advertises rune choices that have been removed from the game, I see you update it but haven't removed it till this point.

Thank you for letting me know!! I totally forgot to update the rune descriptions but have that fixed now. Still trying to update things when I have time. Full time job and school makes it harder to put all my attention to it right now.

A nice guide, I play Yorick since May/June, always builded similar to your build... and it works! It really works, splitpush = win guaranteed! I climbed all the bronze in solo with Yorick, love him!

Such a good guide, I personally have been having a bunch of fun with the support section you mentioned :D

Hey, pretty new Yorick player here, thanks for the nice guide!
Small and complete, it provides all you need to know to pick up Yorick and start digging them graves! (without cigars)
Quick question, i really liked taking Resolve as my main tree, with Grasp of the undying, demolish, Chryssalis and revitalize and i saw a pretty nice synergy with Yorick's Q healing, especially if you build a spirit visage on top of all that! Any opinions on that?
Great job again, keep it up!

Hey thanks! I think it's situational, the meta seems to be shifting towards damaging top laners so the extra tankiness from resolve could be a good move. I've tried the revitalize rune recently and have really liked it as well.

hi, i just picked up yorick and your guide is awesome! just a quick note for runepage: i run grasp of the undying (wich seems to work better for lane sustain, u don't get as much kills but u push better) with overgroth for the max health and precision secondary (alacrity and triumph)
what do you think of that?
ps: once again, you're guid is awesome

(1) |

Yeah, I could see that working well if you were going for a more push oriented strategy, overgrowth is really only beneficial if you can be in lane for a long time and build it up but late game can have a very surprising bonus.

Hey! love this guide but, what about olaf top?

(1) |

I haven't personally seen Olaf top enough to give a valid opinion on it, however I would imagine it being a match up where you'd want to get a bramble vest or Ninja Tabi early on.

Just a heads up, Garen's Judgement (His E) does not kill Yorick's walkers.

Oh dang really? Thanks for letting me know

Thanks dude for this guide. It helped me a lot. Now I have found my champion. Already have 9 win streak in platina.

Hi, Love the Guide. Just picked him up and been applying some of the things to top lane and even jungle, my only question is since they took out banner of cmd, and ultimate hat has been split into two runes (the better for Yorick being in domination) do you think its ever worth it to run domination for that rune? just a slight update tweak would be appreciated for these small changes. Once again ty for the guide! Loving this champ so far! :)

I love this guide!! It was a wonderful help when I picked up Yorick - the guide explains perfectly why certain items should be chosen in certain match-ups which was fantastic as a beginner. Perfect guide for our perfect gravedigger! Kudos.

Glad you liked it! Thanks for the feedback!

loved this guide, rly helpful but i did a game against a tryndamere and i got totally destroyed, didnt have any chance, but still was a pretty good guide

Hey thank you for letting me know I thought I talked about him.

I miss playing the gravedigger. Now that I've found this guide, I'll take him for a spin again soon, seems like people aren't really appreciating him, I think he's a lot better than he was pre-rework.

Hey greetings
So I read all your guide and I found very interesting that triforce + steraksgage combo proc. I did not know and im glad you explained that very well but I have some doubts
Well first of all if you get behind or the team you are in gets behind what items should I rush after triforce becouse since im hqving difficulties on laning face or team fights im not going to buy steraks and start rush tank any opinions how to play in these situations?
Furthermore yorick in comparison its like a garen gives nice dmg destroys tanks and other carrys has on his poket some cc and endurence but can get countered easely with cc or good kiting what are your recomendations to pick yorick in champ select? (What should I care about in the pick)

(1) |

Hi there!
Thank you for taking time to look into the guide and ask questions :)

In terms of being behind, if I find myself struggling or other lanes are having difficulty. I will usually get sheen, then Bramble Vest (or if laner is ap grab Spectre's Cowl) . You don't have to finish Triforce as your first item every time, as long as you have at least sheen you can build what you like to a certain extent.

If you are ahead and your team is behind that's when I recommend the Titanic Hydra build so your damage output can substitute where your team is lacking.

Lastly, if I am counterpicked agasint a ranged champion or anyone else that you may have difficulty with. Start dorans shield. Try to finish ninja tabi or bramble vest when you can. In matchups like Quinn or Fiora I tend to focus on farming and not go in until later in the game. Just play very passively as if those champions are ahead, there is very little you can do to stop them.

I personally play Yorick any time I am top lane unless I see champions like Fiora or Pantheon. These champions will move around your kit and can do serious damage to you as well. I would not recommend Yorick is your team needs AP as well, in that case I would play Swain or Vladimir.

However if you get counter picked the best advice I can say is to play safe, and change your mastery from Insight to Fearless, so when they dive you, you will be slightly safer and have a better chance to outplay or escape.

Hey again
Well I got into yorick in a ranked game and I got surprised about the dmg he dealt and on the pass few days I have been kinda one trick him now (still need practice in trading and sometimes what to build)
Btw I sent you a frend request in the mame of meiogordo so if you still have the invitation accept it I would like to play qith you and learn your yorick skills

Regardless I appreciate your time to explain how yorick works
To be honest laning vs fioras is not the biggest problems for me since lvl 6 with the right poke you can kill her
For me I believe the most hardest champions for yorick are reneckton,darius and pantheon

In terms of builds I dont know if im cursed kappa when I buy triforce I lose the game and if instead I buy titanic I tend to win. XD basicly the split push yorick
(But I will try as you said buy sheen and go tank seems a way better strategie)

Once again I appreciate your help im kinda bumped to someday watch you play and learn
