He can CS with his E, but that's just more HP in your favor. Save resources when he's below 50% so you can burst him to zero with ignite. And IMO his passive is retarded. Absolutely no reason he needs to be invulnerable for the duration. Should be takes reduced damage at best, because free GA is dumb. Yeah, so as I thought you need to outtrade him really, really, really hard (which means burst because his dumb as fuck W lets him sustain any dps-oriented fight), and then still be able to beat him in a 1v1 spells on cooldown fight so you can keep him off creeps, and then somehow manage to have a wave pushing your way so you can freeze otherwise he's just going to give up 5 cs so he can heal to full as soon as the wave reaches his tower and you have to do it all over again. Of course when you outtrade him you have not to use ignite or any stuff that you'd need in an all-in otherwise he'll just ignore you, and you have to remain high health enough that he can't just say "0K, whatever, I'll sack my passive on this trade but as soon as I revive I all-in and kill you". ... This champ design is even more mind-bogglingly retarded than Yorick. "Fun" they say. Wtf. And if you fall a tiny bit behind (or aren't able to outtrade him 1v1 to begin with, which is probably the case of a lot of champions) then then you automatically lose the lane. Such great counterplay and healthy "top lane" design. What. | ||

That said Aatrox is pretty fucking good against Yorick lol | ||

He also doesn't scale nearly as well, nor does he 1v1 as well in general out of lane, and he sucks way more at killing towers. He's much less useful in teamfights. I mean, I'm not forgiving the damned soul who designed Yorick. I'm just saying some twisted dude apparently took on the challenge to make even worse. | ||

His sustained DPS is actually insane. The thing is you have to build a comp around it for it to be reliable (Q is hardish to hit and it's hard to get a respectable duration of W onto someone). Again Ult is largely icing on the cake and it works great with W. Also Aatrox's 1v1 is a teensy bit silly. | ||

Stick the support tag on him and all's good. Malz would be a pretty good support if he wasn't so farm dependent. Large aoe 3 second silence, pretty good zone control with void zone thingie since it absolutely melts shit that doesn't move out of it, long-ass single target disable. W's out of place for a support skill set, but meh nothing's perfect. On September 20 2013 03:33 Mauzel wrote: Did I see someone say Malz's sustained DPS was bad? His sustained DPS is actually insane.

His sustained dps is great, it's jsut easily countered by QSS, which makes fitting him in a team comp a huge problem. You really don't want one of your carries practically nullfied by a single, relatively cheap, item. | ||

You can walk out of his W, Q is more of a lucky-shot than a "im incredible at hitting" and his E is only good for pushing. Where exactly is the sustained dps in a kit like his? | ||

'cept the part where I don't talk about his competitiveness but how stale and boring it is to lane against him. Doesn't need to be good later to be an horrendous design. Also EUW seems to have random huge lags. Good thing for me I was playing Vi so as long as I was near people the autos would do their job, but choosing a target was really hard at times, including for my ult (and try to ult a Fizz during a cc before he can E or Zhonya when you're not sure what's happening). Another person had the same in my last game (I thought he was dc'd at one point) and neither my displayed ping nor my latency seemed to be changing. So I'm guessing EUW's servers are having some kind of trouble again. Welp. :/ | ||

Yorick is niche and requires specific picks to remain relevant, but that doesn't stop him from being a giant cunt to everyone he lanes against and require no skill to do so. | ||

Also I hope vi ult gets nerfed.I don't really care about the champ but her ult being imposible to dodge no matter what you do is just stupid.Every single other cc in the game has counterplay(banshee doesn't count since it's rather easy to get rid of).Nauti ult is the only similar mechanic but its a lot weaker because it is slower. | ||

I can't think of many other tops that are as braindead to play as Yorick is once he gets Tear. Even the strong ones have counterplay/require a measure of skill to dominate with. | ||
