What are some tips for the Yorick vs. Jax matchup?

Jax is a classic hard counter to Yorick. His E (Counter Strike) completely denies all of Yorick's auto-attack and ghoul damage, and he possesses high mobility and tankiness (R + Frozen Heart synergy). However, Yorick has outplay potential. If Jax ever uses Q (Leap Strike) onto Yorick, you can guarantee trapping him with W and E. From this bad position, it is vital to kite in and out of the cage to avoid damage while your pets DPS him. Fight him only after his E ends. Poke with Q when he tries to CS to bait out his E. If he gets on top of you without using Q, W yourself, forcing him to jump, and then walk outside the box. Build Tanky.

What are some tips for the Yorick vs. Renekton matchup?

Renekton is one of the strongest early-game champions, with insane damage, sustain, and two dashes. However, his abilities have long cooldowns after his combo. The strategy is to bait him into using his full combo, then go for an extended trade looking for a solo kill. Do not engage with the four-grave setup; let him engage on you. Never fight him on full Fury, and respect him above 50 Fury. If he attempts to trade when you go for CS, always respond with a Q. Play relatively safe and scale until you reach two items, at which point you beat him.

Jax	Not Favored	140	44%	-199	-206	Jax is a classic hard counter to Yorick. His E (Counter Strike) completely denies all of Yorick's auto-attack and ghoul damage, and he possesses high mobility and tankiness (R + Frozen Heart synergy). However, Yorick has outplay potential.

Renekton	Very Hard	136	43%	-600	-575	Renekton is one of the strongest early-game champions, with insane damage, sustain, and two dashes. However, his abilities have long cooldowns after his combo.

DrMundo	Easy	135	57%	+831	+1,536	He has strong early game damage and tankiness but is quickly outscaled because you can easily kill tanks and he cannot escape your W. Do not get poked by his Q and E early; play for your 4-grave setup. Ignite is very effective in this matchup. An early Executioner's Calling is also crucial, as it negates a large part of his kit.

Gwen	Very Hard	129	40%	-120	-1,399	Gwen is very strong into Yorick, and her W is obnoxious with ghouls. Be extremely cautious of her Level 1 E cheese. Play safe and work towards the four-grave setup, using it to whittle down her health. Focus on quick, short trades (E-Auto-Q) and then disengage. Be precise in dodging the center of her Q-E combo. You can win the all-in pre-Level 6 if you sidestep her Q and use Ignite early to stack Conqueror. Save W for when she E's. After Level 6, if she wastes E or Q on Maiden, engage on her, making sure to sidestep her ultimate. If she lands most of her skills, you will definitely lose

Aatrox	Easy	126	51%	+18	+453	he struggles hard to kill your ghouls and Maiden because your pets take 50% reduced damage from his AOE Qs. This makes it easy for us to whittle him down. Early on (Levels 1-3), just chill and farm safely.

Irelia	Very Hard	123	37%	-1,216	-2,339	Irelia is one of Yorick's worst matchups, as she can Q (Bladesurge) all your ghouls, easily dodge your W and E, and quickly stack her passive. Despite this, Yorick can win through key micro-plays and the use of Ignite. When you engage, walk on top of your ghouls; this makes it harder for her to Q them, and she might accidentally Q onto you, forcing her mobility onto cooldown.
