Learn Yorick's counters and discover matchups where they have an advantage! When you're starting a game of League of Legends you should always keep in mind if you'll be at an advantage or disadvantage against your opponent, so you can know whether to bully them or play safe. You can find detailed breakdowns of each matchup on CounterStats, and you can also check out some Yorick guides to see how to build and play against other champions you may find yourself up against!

This counter data is for Yorick Top in Plat+ games. The percent shown is the enemy champion's counter rating against Yorick.

Yorick's Abilities

Guides Builds Counters Skins Abilities Q&A To Top

Shepherd of Souls Yorick's Passive

1000

Yorick raises a grave for every 12th / 6th / 2nd enemies that die near him. Champions and large monsters always leave a grave.

These graves can be used to summon Mist Walkers with Awakening and Eulogy of the Isles. Mist Walkers have 110-212 (+20% maximum health) health and 2-88 (+0.25 of attack damage) attack damage, and Yorick can control up to 4 in an area (depedning on level).

Last Rites Yorick's Q Ability

Self

7 / 6.25 / 5.5 / 4.75 / 4

Yorick's next attack deals an additional 30 / 55 / 80 / 105 / 130 (+0.4 per attack damage) physical damage and restores 10−68 health, or double the amount if Yorick is below 50% health (depending on level). If this attack kills the target, it leaves a grave.

When there are 3 or more graves nearby and this ability has already been used, Yorick can Recast to raise Mist Walkers from all nearby graves.

This ability triggers spell effects upon dealing damage.

Dark Procession Yorick's W Ability

600

20 / 18 / 16 / 14 / 12

Yorick summons a wall of spirits blocking enemies' path, but not allies'. The wall can be attacked, and disappears after 2 / 2 / 3 / 3 / 4 hits.

Mourning Mist Yorick's E Ability

700

50 / 55 / 60 / 65 / 70

12 / 11 / 10 / 9 / 8

Yorick throws a globule of Black Mist that deals 15% current health as magic damage (min: 70 / 105 / 140 / 175 / 210 (+70% of ability power)), slows by 30% for 2 seconds, and marks champions and monsters for 4 seconds.

Marked enemies continuously awaken nearby graves (but not exceeding the maximum of 4, and take 40% increased damage from up to 8 attacks by Mist Walkers. Yorick and his summoned units gain 20% movement speed toward the mark. Mist Walkers will leap once at marked enemies that get away from them.

Eulogy of the Isles Yorick's Ultimate (R) Ability

600

100

160 / 130 / 100 / 100 / 100

Yorick summons the Maiden of the Mist and 2 / 3 / 4 Mist Walkers. The Maiden has 350 / 1100 / 3300 (+75% of Yorick's maximum health) health, deals 0 / 10 / 40 (+0.5 per attack damage) magic damage, and raises Mist Walkers from nearby enemy deaths. When Yorick damages the Maiden's target, he will deal 3 / 6 / 9% max health magic damage. This effect has a 2 second cooldown.

After 10 seconds, Yorick can Recast this ability to free the Maiden, sending her down the nearest lane.

Is Yorick strong (if he was before) anymore?

Asked by sirell on January 21, 2013

I recall in S2, [[Yorick]] was difficult to counter in lane, but then had a questionable mid-late-game impact. But now it seems like even his laning isn't that strong. What are your opinions of this?
