Who Wins
- You lose levels 1-3 to Yorick's superior poke range and minion control, but can start winning at level 6 when your R provides gap-close and burst damage.
- Your revive passive makes diving advantageous even in close fights.
How to Trade
- Use W to pull Yorick when he steps up for Q farm, then E dash to close distance and stack Determination with extended autos.
- If he drops W wall, use Q recast knockup to escape or continue fighting depending on your stack count.
Wave Control
- Let Yorick push into you early, then use W pull to clear his ghouls while simultaneously damaging him.
- Once you have items and max Determination stacks, you can force longer trades in the wave where your sustain and damage scaling excel.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste E dash for poke alone, as you need it to stick to Yorick after landing W pull for meaningful trades.
- Avoid fighting when you have low Determination stacks, as your damage and survivability are significantly reduced without them.
