As mentioned before in this thread, Nhat Nguyen (2k ELO and pro player) has been playing support Yorick in ranked games and having success doing so. This is his stream.
Cool. Does he says that yorick is anything better than niche though? Cuz that is what matters.

I wasn't the one who was rude to begin with. If you'd like kind words, then you should exercise kind words, whether or not you agree with me.
Nobody has said Yorick isn't something other than niche silly willy.
I'M saying Yorick -IS- NICHE, lol.
I think everyone comfortably agrees that he is niche.
But being Niche does not mean that he is not viable. In fact, being niche is not even bad.
He could potentially be (Potentially, keep this in mind) brutally strong in and against the right team compositions.
When the opposition has no reliable heal in the bot lane, and/or your team has a mean right clicker, those are the niches that Yorick fits perfectly into.
I don't know what lanes would counter him etc, but, he's not an "Every game" support that you bring into solo queue.
Also there are certain combos which work better with Yorick than others would in lane phase, naturally.
He also potentially allows for some very interesting champion selections.

Searz, start using smileys in your posts - It makes it ALOT easier to figure out if you are "DEAD SERIOUS!" or "Just chillin' around ^-^"
I agree with both you and Duff, unfortunately I haven't been in the mood to play support all day, but I might give it a shot in near future again :)
And if you don't think Nhat is high enough then I dunno mate xD
Nhat got 55,3% winrate, and that guy DOES NOT play solo lane Yorick.
It's his 2nd most played champ only next to soraka in season 2.
Need more proof or can we agree that he is good? :'3
Nhat's runes for Yorick are: Mpen Marks, Mp5/lvl seals, flat CDR glyphs, gp5 quints
EDIT!: He is apparently Experimenting with Ashe support aswell, got a runepage with AD marks, Mp5/lvl seals, cdr glyphs and Arp Quints! o.o
Sounds interesting to me :'3

Daauum. Those are kinda bad.. I think I'd run:
ArP marks
Armor seals
CDR glyphs
HP, AD or GP10 quints
And yea, Nhat has the AD runes backwards.

You need to log in before commenting.
I never said I was correct.
Your reading comprehension failed.
Thank you for the kind words --.--
I misread your comment. That can be attributed to a few things, most notably the fact that I'm writing this on a mobile with a really tiny screen and that makes it a royal pain in the *** to comment and the fact that you didn't quote the part you were responding to.
It's just a misunderstanding.
It's useless to discuss this any further. You're rating yorick highly while I'm rating him medium and that's that.
