Yorick Matchups Overview
Yorick General information
Yorick tips and tricks
Look to split push with your Ultimate R to take down towers. Ignore team fighting if you’re not 100% sure you can win them- especially if your Ultimate R is on cooldown.
Yorick needs time to come online. Keep the minion wave close to your Tower before level 6 to increase your chances of getting a lead and reducing your chances of dying to ganks.
Avoid using any of your abilities apart from your Q during basic trading. Your abilities cost a lot of mana and you’ll be defenceless while they’re on cooldown.
