Today, let's talk about the most broken league of legends champion of all time, the old yorick, and him in league of legends history. From a champion who was known for being so broken, so overpowered, and so unfun to play against, that he was removed from riots and league of legends free week rotation, to now being a champion that is great for climbing in low elo. This is a video covering the history of yorick, and the history of league of legends, and Season 10 League of Legends, Rise of the Elements League of Legends.

Just realized old yorick’s abilities are the four horsemen of apocalypse: famine, war, death and pestilence

[@SharkfightersSH]

well that was the reason I played him. I liked old yorick, even thou he got nerfed. I played him. I also liked new yorick, but now he's basically nerfed into non-viability again and that kimda pisses me of, since one can now play Nasus - who actually got buffed massively in the same timespan, and have a better splitpush. the mechanics are also basically the same - smash Q, deal damage. if you hse your E well, deal more damage. I didn't mind old yorick being a sucky champ because his kit was fun and unique, despite all the nerfs. the rework somehow lacks that feeling.

[@wickedbrain6076]

These are NOT the four horsemen. You only named three. The first rider you didn't mention is justice and purity. Its a rather common mistake, maybe not a mistake at all considering pop culture believes famine, war, death and pestilence being the four riders. Death and famine is actually one and the same rider, so you only named three.

[@Hai43561]

Yorick used to be my pocket pick whenever someone picked darius or a cancer range champ :)

[@ProjectMakeleio]

@qeuarfbhq3iwushbq I am a darius main and all i can say is that nasus can do nothing to stop darius. Darius got Nasus 9/10 times

[@ProjectMakeleio]

@qeuarfbhq3iwushbq every nasus i have gone against is trash then. Illaoi is a big problem for me, i have never even defeated her in lane phase

[@itachiuchiha4838]

@qeuarfbhq3iwushbq actually picking nasus in high elo is a suicide option :> I'm d2 mid main. Nasus severely needs his stack to win the lane, ans if you dont win the lane in high elo unless your team is smurfing theres no real way of coming back, since high elo players know how to snowball their lead and put you more behind so that you cant catch up. With proper wave management and good pick nasus is a suicide pick. One can just build up a wave before level 3 while harassing nasus away of it and after you build the wave to a canon wave you can crash it and do a cheater recall or if nasus is low enough for you to solo dive him or if your jungle is a champ who can dive easily like elise then put him more behind by diving and making him miss those xps from the built up wave then do a cheater recall with an item and level advantage after that the wave would just bounce back to you so you dont rly have to do much but to make sure that the enemy wave would slow push towards you and freeze it in front of the tower with this method you can avoid nasus stacking and if he tries to break the freeze you should use your item advantage and level advantage altho be wary of minion damage since a built up wave actually hurts more than the enemy laner. Or u can just call your jungler since its a free gank since nasus would have to step up to get at least xp. Although you can also hard shove everytime with your lead and use your lead to snowball otherlanes its not advisable against nasus since he would be able to stack. Freezing is the best method as you said players are impatient so that nasus would 100% tilt and throw by stepping up and u can take advantage of it by either hard pushing to get damage to the tower or if your too low set up your freeze and recall. After laning phase you should use your lead to snowball objectives you should deny objectives like dragon against nasus since he scales pretty good. This is just how to put behind nasus during laning phase. If you know how to take advantage of this lead to win the game then thats nice.

[@HappyGick]

He's still quite good against Darius. If Yorick doesn't win lane one way or another against Darius, that Yorick sucks. I went 2/6 vs Darius, because he grabbed a few kills here and there (never killed me once), he went 7/1, and I was still able to outduel him. He lost the game, and I won. The dude still thought that Yorick didn't counter Darius, when his laning phase was hell, only managed to go 7/1 because he made a bad roam that only got punished by me taking his turret, and was 30cs behind. Yorick is still good in low elo because people are bad. Hold my 62% WR in Bronze-Gold elo.

[@kalls2k907]

@@itachiuchiha4838 yeah, in EUW the server I am in, you can climb with nasus, sure, the highest possible rank you can climb with him is high plat, maybe low diamond too ( trust me I've seen dogshit low diamond players lmao) but after that, you are never winning lane unless you're picking someone in meta especially in the top lane, like you mentioned all the wave management and stuff that you can abuse out of nasus, that also applies to anyone with a weak laning phase or someone who just lost a 1v1.

[@wolframstahl1263]

This reminds me of an old video about "winning by feeding", I need to watch that again! The idea was to feed kills to the enemy adc for some time, so the enemy team's strength was pretty much concentrated on one over-fed auto attacker. When this was achieved, you suddenly stopped playing like crap for a moment and killed the enemy adc in a team effort with a Mordekaiser R. Then copy the Mordekaiser ghost of the adc with your Yorick R and suddenly you have 2 copies of the strongest champ on the field, and you just run down the base in a single death push.

Old Yorick will always have a spot in my heart. The only season I seriously tried for diamond was season 6.

Never would've reached diamond without him! I do enjoy the new Yorick nowadays though.

[@StarfieldDisarray]

It's also worth noting that InvertedComposer understood something that a lot of other people who'd pick up and play Yorick for a few games didn't understand about the champ. For as strong as his dueling, sustain, and damage reduction passive were, they were not good enough to let Yorick excel in teamfights like other tanky champions. Yorick's role during teamfights was to be on splitpush duty (where his incredible dueling potential shines to deter the enemy team sending people to him) or to play as a tanky backline caster that eats skillshots and spanks assassins for your ADC/Mid. Lesser Yorick players would apply their "run them down" mentality from laning phase to teamfights and just get kited, CCed, and blown up either forcing them to ult themselves or just dying without using it which was a big part of Yorick's perceived "win lane, lose game" mentality of the time.

" It would actually be cool, interacting and promote gameplay.

[@thesun5275]

but then you'd have the set of players complaining and going all "ugh you just cater to the idiots, how about you let people learn how to play the game and stop treating them like idiots!!!1!!!!11!" Same people who don't get why Akali continues to be nerfed despite the fact she is garbo low elo People are and always will be idiots and no matter what they do people will always complain about it. Some people complain about them nerfing too much, others complain they don't nerf enough some complain about too many buffs others complain about not enough buffs and surprisingly you have those kinds of people about the same champions.

Better than a tutorial video on how to beat each and every 120+ champiosn of this game, they just need to make it readable. What is the source of the damage, what is the source of the healing... Take Lux for example. She's not OP, but if you don't understand the hitboxes of her skillshots, she might feel completely unfair to play against. And recently riot made the animation of her skillshots much more readable.

[@khazms]

I started playing Yorick in late 2019 and I really liked his kit, it was so unique and simple. So, for top, he's always been my main pick. Obviously, he's very weak until level 6 and is heavily reliant on ganks or counter ganks, but I love how he easily destroys towers and objectives. He's super useful in team fights, he can slow, trap and do heavy damage to anyone. I just wish he wasn't so team reliant. That's never good for solo queue.

[@CrazyIvan865]

You must not have played in 2016 and 2017. If yorick wasn't winning lane top it was because someone had a champion that could hold out against him and knew how to play defensively. In which case he would just hold lane till level 6 before beating down the enemy 2 or 3 times and then start running all over the map making more bodies. Because after all, the difference between a good necromancer and an enthusiastic necromancer is a good necromancer waits for bodies to naturally present themselves. Where as an enthusiastic necromancer is all about making new ones to play with. It was a good thing tha the had medium high difficulty for learning and playing him. Well also not a good thing. Pretty much you waited to see if someone was just learning and wasn't any good. If they weren't any good you could take him in a teamfight. If he was any good you just FF'd at 15 and banned Yorick on the next game. Lol. Then again those 2 seasons they didn't really have good free rotation champions. The only had the stupid over complicated to play (like Azir, Nasus, Chogath, Camile, Kalitta, Oriana, Akali,Akari, Riven, Irelia, Talia, old Heimerdinger, urgot, Fiora etc) or ones that weren't complicated but were just stupid and under powered champions like old Warwick, Garen, or old amumu. Back then free rotation pretty much. Sucked. But they hid most all of the champions that were pretty easy to pick up as far as how they worked, stalled well and could hold their own even in early game.

[@lykzar]

I have played Yorick for a while now, but when I first picked him up I was confused as to why we never really saw him in competitive play or high elo. I was dominating with him consistently, even when he was being nerfed. This video helped me understand why people don't really play Yorick. The pros started playing him after realizing his power, which led to him being nerfed. This caused the pros to stop playing him as he wasn't really viable in that high level play, which in turn caused the lower elo players to not play him much anymore due to low attention from Riot and little presence in competitive. People in low elos didn't (and still don't) know how to play against a Yorick, because they have never seen a Yorick, and don't really know what he does. This domination in low elos led Riot to keep nerfing Yorick, making even less people play him and have the knowledge to play against him. Nerfs to his stats wont do much if your opponent doesn't even know how to play against the idea of his kit. Why are newer champions always played in competitive? Well, the fact that they are new leads everyone to try them, which allows people to more quickly realize the true potential of their kit. This puts them in the spotlight in competitive play. But why do newer champions (and also the starting champions like Miss Fortune) often stay there for longer periods of time, while champions like Yorick get a small taste in the spotlight, yet quickly drop out? This is because Riot wants the new champs to succeed. Riot doesn't really care too much about the champs that aren't the ones that you start with, and also not the newcomers. This is because the starting champs are the first experience you get, and they want to make them great introductions into the game. And the new champs are making them the most money, and also keep you coming back for more, so they want them to stay in the spotlight as long as possible. Sadly, this leads to most of the champions in the game never really getting a taste of competitive play, even though they are champions that have lots of potential to be viable. These champions just get stuck in a loop, and can never really find a place to fit in. Although I still frequently crush people with Yorick, I don't really feel satisfied, because I know that I will soon get to a point where people will know how to play against him, making him not nearly as powerful as he is in my current elo. I picked up Yorick not because I could crush people due to their lack of knowledge, but because I genuinely enjoy his kit, and the fact that he simply becomes irrelevant at a certain point makes me really sad. I hope that Riot will try to give every champion a better chance to actually impact the game, as every single champion in the game has potential to be great. I spent over an hour on this comment, and I hope that you enjoyed reading it. Thank you.

Idk, sion for me is the most fairly designed champion in league. He has very rewarding but telegraphed abilities with reasonable counterplay.

Hi, i play teemo for a living yeah, but his playstyle can be pretty braindead in some case like low elo by just splitting top, using the turret rune and the fact he scales health really well, makes him take a long while to take down and a threat that can take down turrets w/ ease, and open up other objectives as well

[@poggers4392]

Rock Lee sion literally loses to nearly 1/4 of all top laners if played correctly. He doesnt have enough sustained damage, he relies too heavily onlanding q, E max with comet was nerfed to the ground, w max makes his all in just be straightup bad, and vayne exists. Even with all of these weaknesses, people in diamond and beyond still find ways to use him properly since sion’s macro play is very rewarding. low elo is low wlo, in my eyes they dont matter.

I played league along time ago like there was 10 characters when I started. There where alot of guys back in the day that had to be nerfed to obvilion. I remember mordakai, Shen a bunch of guys that could solo Penta kill quite easily by LVL 6-7. It is unfortunate that alot of older characters are losing relevance tho.
