Yorick is my number 2 most hated champ to face at top. Number 1 is AP nunu. Yes, I hate him more than Darius, Jayce, and Shen combined. The only time he's weak is before his first b, after that, once he gets his Tear, there's nothing you can do against him.

The one flaw about him is that he doesn't carry as hard as some top laners, such as Riven, and he relies heavily on his adc to be successful for him to be of any use late game.
