Who Wins

  • You lose early trades pre-6 due to Yorick's superior sustain from Q healing and his ability to poke with E ghouls while staying safe.
  • Post-6 you can potentially win all-ins if you land E into wall stun, but Yorick's cage W can trap you and his Maiden provides significant DPS advantage.

How to Trade

  • Look for short trades using Q empowered autos then backing off, as extended trades favor Yorick's sustained damage and healing.
  • Your best window is landing E wall stun into full combo, but this requires proper positioning near walls.

Wave Control

  • Focus on shoving waves quickly with Q to prevent Yorick from building up graves for ghouls.
  • Avoid letting him freeze as his zone control with ghouls makes it difficult to break freezes safely.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't get trapped by his W cage during trades as it leaves you vulnerable to his full combo and ghoul damage.
  • Avoid fighting in areas without walls nearby since your E loses its stun potential and primary engage tool.
