"All in all, Yorick looks to be the perfect way to kick off a new mechanic, minions, in a balanced-but-formidable form."

I guess PC gamer has never played Annie or Mordekaiser, or Malzahar.

Annie and Morde have pets, not minions. Malzahar technically has a minion but can control it to an extent with his E.

This is the first champion that is based around swarms of small, uncontrollable creatures, much like minion masters from Guild Wars.

I guess.

I just think that calling it a new mechanic is a bit of a stretch.
Tri lane for life.

To use better words, Yorick could be called a Swarm champion.
Where you produce your own mini-minion-wave for a creep advantage and have to know how to maximize.

This is very different from Tibbers, Children of the Grave, or Hallucinate.
Malzahar is similar, but imagine if he could get out 3 Voidlings at once; add in that they're all uncontrollable (no E targeting) so you had to time when/where they spawned. Then you'd have a swarm champion.

Probably AD.

Green ghost deals a DoT for magic damage though.

@Atheb:

There aren't any actual videos. If there were, it'd probably be blurred out just like the Lee-Sin thing.
Or was that nocturne...

Anyways, this is just them leaking information to PC Gamer. Maybe someone got to see play-testing being done.

Oh, this just in guys.

Yorick's Ultimate concept has been changed into something "far, far sexier" in a last-minute sort of thing.
