This has been in the works for over a year by now, and I'm finally happy to put it out. This guide contains most of the information I have about Yorick in League, and although there are a lot of stuff I would of liked to talk about still, for the sake of clarity and time's sake I want to leave it to you guys to discover it. Thank you guys for 20k subs, and I appreciate all the support I've been given. I look forward to uploading more and more Yorick content, and spreading this community about. With that being said, you, who is reading this description, I ask you one favour. yorick

BEHOLD, MY FELLOW MAN, THE HOLY GRAIL HAS ARRIVED.

[@Rivalrvn]

slog the goat fr why did i watch 20 minutes of this i dont even play yorick

[@dog5047]

You are a gem slog, we are glad a person like you specialized yourself on Yorick of all champs. May more attention be brought to this absolute chad of a champ.

[@shahalom7511]

YES SLOGGY IS HERE FINALLY

[@haythamgrari924]

no...people should fear yorick, fear the unknown.

[@thatonelight1002]

i just started out playing leauge and ended up picking yorick and loving him :)

[@Fruitn1nja21]

Life is fleeting but for me it is quagmire

[@dynhoyw]

i hope you really read this dude so i started randomly playing yorick out of nothing. my main motivation was pokerick, another yorick main. i liked the way he played and it captivated me to start playing the champ too, in top, mid and adc. a while later, i got tired of him, ended with a sad winrate of about 33% but i had some fun. mostly stress though. when i came across this video, it really fueled my desire to play yorick again, to splitpush until i die, to have marry maiden and raise four adorable ghouls, take down all towers of the rift and ignore all champions. you made me realize that yorick kind of lives in his own world and has his own extensive range of techs, combos and when to use those techs and combos, not mattering at all what my kda is being someone with difficulty in playing outside of support, pokerick and you are the two people that made me discover a passion (and reignite it) for a character i started playing literally out of the blue and could have fun with, regardless of how many deaths or kills i had. thanks so much bro

[@candleo.]

yup, and yorick jungle is even better. no one realizes I exist till they see me at the end screen. "Wait, they had a Yorick!?" "Wait, we have a Yorick?!" amazing.

[@Yorickmain2]

after watching this guide i'm not allowed near cemeteries

[@Terry.M.I.]

a W tip that you didn't mention is that it technically counts as a knock up to cancel peoples teleports with the edge of the cage displacing them if they are in the way

[@exclipse7277]

Thank you slog daddy, thanks to this video, my wife has come back to me, I now have 12 maidens and 1 million ghouls. I cannot emphasize how much you have improved my life.

[@VivoDraconis]

and through the blood and sweat of his labor, paired with his right hand maiden the final guide was born

[@jordanrushing5049]

Love this video. Will now main yorick thanks to you

[@acesecus]

Yo this guy is too fucking funny Lmfao hahahahhaah, I just found out about Slogdog on my recommended page and I don’t regret clicking on this video even thou I don’t play yorick at all and even thou prior to watching this video I had 0 interest in ever learning or ever playing Yorick. But now due to slogdog’s hiliarious commentary and hiliarious guide, Yorick has caught my interest Lmfao.

[@Chaziltasm]

Side note. Love Yoriks voice acting and voice lines. Great stuff.

[@pogo_the_spike5472]

Playing Yorick really gives me motivation to play League again, thank you slog for the inspiration.

The Ratbags are ready to dig the rift now! ty slogbob

[@YipperX5]

all you did was mention "The 8 ghoul setup" and I as a novice Yorick figured it out before you even showed it :P elevated my gameplay instantly. I also appreciated the Maiden AI tutorial, she has always been my weakness and still is but I keep her alive so much longer. I also have used her in ways i never thought you could after watching you for a while.

Thank you Sloggy, I was literally Bromze stuck, then reached Diamomd for no reason lol. I just dropped league coz I need to work, but you, introducing me to Yorick was life changing. Never thought I would be attracted to men. 🎉

Thank you, the grand dad yorick, the first yorick, the mightiest yorick, the chad yorick, the slog dog

[@AzureRuby96]

One thing that you didnt mention is that you can easly freeze waves with ur W if u need to buy some seconds for ur wave to come in front of ur turret another thing is that you can acutally have more than 4 ghouls if ur not close to them - make ur ghouls go with the wave and tp somewhere else. If u place ur R on another lane u will have 8 ghouls on the map and you'll be pushing 2 lanes at once. Those 4 first ghouls u placed wont disappear until you come close enough to them with another 4

[@lordmonocr6206]

… I need to test this. In my mind that seems insane and a thing I want to try abuse

[@MrrBeann]

[@zudi8709]

Thanks for the guide! What starter items do you recommend? I usually take corrupting potion for life + mana sustain but I was wondering what your opinin is, if DShield or cull might be more worthwile in certain matchups.

[@ascendantking34]

LETS GOOOO

[@SpearSwordGaming]

Slog I love you

good guide

Okay, this made me want to main yorick

[@weedblaster2125]

THE DOGGA IS BACK SON

[@puncakes2876]

As someone who JUST watched bits of this before hopping into like 6-7 games of just Yorrick, something I also noticed with regards to Maiden AI, is that if you walk into a bush she will also walk in and stand on top of you. I don't know if it operates as if she has no vision of you and therefore needs to go in the bush to see, or the more likely scenario is thats just the mechanic as its understood that the bush is meant to be out of site so its coded as such. Just an observation thought from playing my games for the last 3 hours or so.

[@Mikalya]

As someone who want to start ranking after playing this thing after years, this motivated me to be the biggest asshole i can be to the enemy top and stablish my ghoul supremacy. Also get a maiden bodypillow.

[@lioz9457]

I'm going to let the new viewers know that when you start to follow this man's advice, you too will adopt the "If I'm not ahead, I'm behind" mindset. You will achieve mastery level 7 quickly, but the yearning for more is intense. Strive for greater heights, remember your roots, and ultimately, develop your style. GLHF

Best guild for a hero I’ve watched on KZbin. Been a yorick main for 3 years and I didn’t know about the tower W trick. Only thing I’d say is if your yorick got to have the meow skin 😂😂😂

Matchup that recommended cosmic, is it better to use first strike?

[@EpicGamers9111]

So with the duskblade changes for patch 13.16 is the build still good?

[@antoineguillou2823]

hello, what do you think about the player Pokerick ? he specialised with yorick with comets

[@efebey76]

Thank you so much. Literally started playing Yorick because of you. Gotten to Gold 1 and heading to Plat now.

[@gkj3427]

I have a question. Are both hydra variations good on yorick? I really love split pusher champions.

[@L6FTY]

Do you still recommend dusk blade with the 30 second nerf?

[@du_san]

1:03 random slogdog noise

[@MrBraleee]

love the risk of rain soundtrack

[@tomalexander9140]

Quick question with regards to summs is it situational on their team or against laner? loving the guide

[@grez8379]

depends, first prio is for ur lane (eg take ignite vs irelia) after that pick for the split whether that's flash ghost or still ignite
