Just for reference, I've been playing a ton of Yorick lately and LOVE the following setup and build I've been doing. It allows you to be a massive bully early game and win lane against anyone.

Runes: Movespeed Quints, AD Reds, Armor Yellows, MR Blues

Masteries : 8/15/7... 3 Brute Force, 1 Mental Force, 4 Alacrity, 1 Resistance, 2 Hardiness, 2 Toughness, 4 Durability, 3 Vigor, 1 Veteran Scars, 2 Indomitable, 3 Expanded Mind, 1 Summoner Recall, 3 Meditate

Flash and Teleport

Item build start boots and pots. Get a CHALICE once you reach 890g there abouts. Skip Manamune or ToG. It doesn't help you early enough when you need it. Chalice and a Codex allow you to spam Ghouls all day long. Plus the CDR is great when you build for Athene's Unholy Grail. That's the only item you need to solve Yorick's mana problems. Plus the added CDR, MR for tankiness, and Ability power to make W hit harder when you summon the ghoul is all gravy. Spirit Visage is the next core item. The type of boots is either ninja tabi's or merc treads depending upon the other team. If no one else is going for Frozen Heart I pick it up. With Grail, SV, and FH you'll hit 40% CDR. Actually over that, but no biggie. That allows for maximum early ghoul spam. Finish with a Tri-force and item of your choice. Need more AD? go for it. Need more tankiness? Go for that. But should be doing very well with just that setup. Early and mid game you are a massive immovable bully if you level up E and W, with emphasis on E first. Put a point in Q early if you are drawing a lot of ganks to your lane. Which is more than likely happen as you WILL own the lane you are in. Enjoy the build.
