A good Renekton makes the game end by 20 minutes. He has just that amount pressure. And when late game comes, when he is no longer a threat to many champions, he can still sit on the ADC and act as a meatwall. Even kill them, sometimes. However you do need a diving champ that can kill an ADC to acompany you. Kass is my favourite mid laner to play Renekton with. If you can compensate for his weak early by creating large amounts of pressure top lane, you'll probably snatch a win.

To me, the biggest buff Yorick has recieved is that ADCs are in a really good spot with the item changes (late game ADCs even more so). This coupled with good TP ganks means that if you can snowball Trist/Kog/Twich and ult them in teamfights you have a very good chance of winning even with Yorick's mediocre late game.
