making him a manaless hp caster would have solved so many problem but instead Riot does what they do too frequently: Overbuff to shut up complainers then over nerf to shut them up again, by then a new champ has their attention and no one cares about the old.

Why a manaless HP caster? Yorick is too resource intensive in lane and unfortunately requires philostone or Tear Asap despite being a tanky dps (rushing tear does nothing for his damage or mitigation, it merely allows him to actually stay in lane). Making him an hp caster would encourage players to build hp and subsequently tankier builds, this would synergize GREATLY because his ghouls get a percentage of his max hp, each summoned ghoul grants him percentage damage reduction (which possesses the best synergy with HP), plus he can regain his spent HP with E.
