Usually when playing things like and, facing champions like ,  or  is a royal pain in the but indeed! You need to make your damage stick, or burst them down during a gank.

Which is the route I go with Yorick more often then not. I don't have to win lane, I don't have to out farm, I just have to survive, do the best that I can without giving an inch on the tower. The play style is quite like, level Q and farm to late game. As for build, I rock mana regen on runes go for an early homeguard + flask combination, but only when in a tight spot. Because when you are using Q sparsely to secure low minions or to get away (movementspeed huzzah), you don't really have any issues with mana. They only arise when you excessively spam or herass.
