How to play it

✓ DO

Respect his E

His ranged E is the only tool he's allowed to farm and poke with — don't let it zone you off the wave.

Taunt at level 2

Get in range to taunt the moment you hit level 2 and punish him hard whenever he walks up to melee-farm.

Blade up, slowpush

Place your blade up and set up the slowpush, but don't overpush if he's farming far back under tower.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Overpush when Yorick sits far back — he just wants to farm safely, so force him to walk up to you.
