Well with the new 15 gold feeding streak the #1 strategy is to feed enemy team, give carry killing spree gold, ulti carry and win.

From what i have seen so far this guy is doing exactly what Riot did not want. Make the entire game around 1 carry that you just support/heal/shield/revive till victory.

i was top lane GP with 170 more creeps then the enemy annie, 5-1 while the team was 9-30

the yorick goes "9-2 aw yeah" and i was confused for a split second til i realized what he meant
next team fight he ults me, i get a triple into a delayed penta thanks to his ghost. lmao. yorick might not do SHIT all game and the dude ended like 1-11-15 but holy shit he carried us so hard

I didn't pick up yorick so i could support with him. I picked him up because riot told me he was a fucking tanky dps! THEY LIED TO ME! HE AIN'T NO WHERE NEAR CLOSE TO BEING ONE!

the only good thing about Yorick is his cast range is pretty long so characters who have short ranged abilities and weak early games can find laning against him frustrating as he is hard to trade with then.

but then 10 minutes later you decimate him with your first real item.

well, better this than nocturne, I suppose.

So far I've been having a lot of fun with Yorick in normals. He's not a very good champ but it is possibly to carry with him (in low level games).

Here's my build:

Masteries
9/21/0
Masteries on Leaguecraft

Runes
9x Flat AD Marks
9x Dodge Seals
9x Mres/lvl Glyphs
2x HP Quints
1x Flat AD Quint

Summoner Spells
Any combination of Ghost, Ignite, Exhaust, and Flash. Heal/Rally for trolling.

Items
Open Boots + 3 pot or Regrowth + 1 pot
I always aim for Boots, Phage, Philo Stone, Chalice, and 2x Doran's Blade before any kind of mid-game team fights start happening. So far this is the most cost efficient way to not be completely useless in your lane and in team fights. I've had the most success in solo lanes against AP champs with little sustain or range, because it is very easy to make winning trades and position yourself with the speed boost from nimbleness. The Mres from chalice/merc treads help you continue to dominate your lane after they build some AP items. Consider Ninja Tabi or an earlier Chain Mail against physical or auto-attack champions.

My final item build is Merc Treads, Frozen Mallet, Atma's, Guardian Angel, Shurelya's, and Chalice. In team fights I generally ult myself (meepo style) or my most fed team mate and go straight for their squishiest champs, mashing QWE the whole way. After you kill their carries or otherwise take them out of the fight you don't contribute much, so use Shurelya's to help your allies if you haven't already to take down their carry. Playing in this way feels like a bad version of Mordekaiser, but it has gotten the job done in normals.

Skill Order
E, Q, E, W, E ... R > E > Q > W

I've read other builds involving an early manamune and E > W > Q, but this doesn't seem very effective because of the nature of Yorick's skills being magic damage that scale off of your attack damage. If you build squishy and spam E and W from the back like a caster, you won't do any meaningful damage because of the lack of effective penetration items.

EDIT: I've been playing with manamune... it's really strong on Yorick. If you are dominating you can go manamune -> trinity force and start stomping. Manamune + Brutalizer + Spirit Visage also seems very potent and allows you to get 40% CDR early on with proper runes/masteries. Also consider items like Aegis if your team needs it, or Stark's if you have a particularly fed ranged carry.

I've been doing quite well with him actually. In terms of skills, you really want to abuse that lifesteal and maybe slow, if you have the mana pool for it, if your opponent can't trade well with it. I figured out a really solid build where I end up having near 3.8khp and 360+ AD. I out-dmg the carry sometimes so it lets me run in and do crazy shit with my ult.

If you position properly and make some good trades, I've gone 14-2-13, 10-2-8, 10-3-10. Despite that though, I do think he could benefit from higher AD ratios, higher base damage on his skills or just increased tankiness in general.

It will be interesting to see where riot goes with him. More supporty or cut the ulti down and give him damage. I kinda hope the former.

I really think manamune is his saving grace. He needs so much mana to support his stuff then i go warmogs -> atmas. Only build i have with semi dmg/health. I'm looking for new builds so please feel free to reply/disagree

Noticed that immediately after my first game. So easy to go OOM on Yorick. Not to mention he hits 2k mana easily which is 80 AD.

Clearly Phreak owned it up with his BURST DAMAGE where Yorick presses Q/W/E to make Blitz/Xin/Nidalee attack enemies.
