EPTI saw it the other day in solo Q. I wasn't in bot lane at the time but their lane went really well (I think 4 kills up on our bot lane when towers started going down).

R>E>W>Q? or R>W>E>Q R>W>Q>E looking at the skills, maxing W first for kill potential seems to make the most sense, and then I would max Q after for most damage, leaving E for last (although E gives sustain) but looking at this thread people seem to max E first | ||

the problem is that his skills utility don't scale very well. his ult requres an adc that doesn't suck or an assasin mid | ||

If you level W, you will push. Instead, maxing E and spamming it on your opponent on cooldown (hence the Tear) will whittle them down while topping you off, they'll take aggro if they try to answer (esp. melee champions; well Riven wouldn't, but she's going to kill the wave whenever she facerolls anyway). It lets you bully your lane opponent while retaining some control over the minion wave, if you max and spam W you will push hard and Yorick doesn't have any escape. Sure he can still get kills in 1v2s and mitigate damage by blocking skillshots with ghouls and maintaining the damage reduction, but he's vulnerable to ganks. | ||

I took a look at invertedcomposers runes and masteries and he went for scaling cdr and 15 damage, and 21/9/0 some questions: 1. Why no Arpen? 2. Why not build spirit visage/iceborn gauntlet (also gives 20cdr and the passive on gauntlet seems nice, frozen heart/maw seems to give no HP) 3. Why 21/9/0 instead of 9/21/0? 4. I played against an AD nidalee top, who goes AD but does a lot of magic damage, whats the itemization against nidalee? (it makes sense now that i should have gone E first before W for sustain, but W first actually didn't push out my wave since she was constantly pushing) | ||

against a nasus though, hes impossible to kill. one thing that gets me is that yorick is pretty easy to kite if u arent already in melee range, and in this case his Q does no damage since u never get in range to hit the enemy | ||

Doesn't his Q do physical damage? Late game your Q does the vast majority of his damage, and in any all in that Q is where the money is. I also thought his ghouls did physical damage, because I remember them proccing black cleaver debuff. I also thought his ult ghost did physical damage, our when controlled after someone died whatever skill type they used. I checked wiki, it says it's how I have. Can you confirm? | ||
