Yorick Matchups Overview

Yorick General information

Yorick tips and tricks

Look to split push with your Ultimate Eulogy of the IslesR to take down towers. Ignore team fighting if you’re not 100% sure you can win them- especially if your Ultimate Eulogy of the IslesR 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 Last RitesQ during basic trading. Your abilities cost a lot of mana and you’ll be defenceless while they’re on cooldown.
