How to Use Yorick Counter Data
Every figure on this page, covering which champions beat Yorick and which ones Yorick beats, comes from live ranked Top lane matchup data. At present, Shen, Singed and Gwen give Yorick its weakest win rates in the current data set. Shen is the hardest matchup of the three, with Yorick winning only 43.6% of 913 recorded games. Going the other way, Yorick does well against Vayne, Poppy and Kennen, so those are the safer matchups to take on.
Each card displays Yorick’s win rate along with the number of games it’s based on, and a result backed by tens of thousands of games deserves more trust than one resting on a few hundred. The Easy, Even and Hard labels come straight from those win rates: under 48% is labeled Hard, and over 52% is labeled Easy. They’re meant to help you read the cards quickly and aren’t a separate statistic. The data covers ranked games at Emerald and above across all regions, reflects patch 16.13.1, and updates every 48 hours, so the numbers shift as the meta does. Matchups are only part of the picture, so pair them with the current Yorick build for the best items and runes, or visit the Yorick champion page for ability details and everything else.
