How to play it

✓ DO

Dodge his E

After the first waves it's a dodgeball game — you must expose yourself for prio but dodge as many Es as possible or he'll win out.

Abuse early

He's weak level 1 — abuse ranged-vs-melee to get prio, crash the third wave, and poke him while he farms ranged creeps.

Clear his ghouls

Use your ranged W to kill ghouls when he hits E, and keep a safe distance when his cage is up so he can't trap you.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never let Yorick stack a wave — he snowballs out of control the moment he gets that value.
