What makes Yorick dangerous
Yorick summons ghouls from graves to swarm you, walls you in with his E ring, and his ultimate raises the Maiden of the Mist — a powerful minion that shreds towers and champions. He's a relentless split-pusher who wins side lanes 1v1 and takes objectives with his ghoul army.
How to play against Yorick
- 1Clear his ghouls or don't fight surrounded by them — they add up to huge damage. Kill the Maiden to cut his push and dueling power.
- 2Dodge his E (a slow-marking ring/mist) — it slows and lets his ghouls swarm. Sidestep it to avoid getting walled in.
- 3Answer his split-push with numbers, not a 1v1 — he wins most side-lane duels. Trade map pressure instead.
- 4He's immobile with no gap-closer — kite him and his ghouls, and focus the Maiden in teamfights.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓No mobility — kiteable.
- ✓Kill the Maiden to cut his power.
- ✓E wall/slow is a dodgeable skillshot.
- ✓Weak in coordinated 5v5 vs strong 1v1 split.
