You're right on the knife timing. It's a cost, so it'll be in the discard pile before Yorick's reaction triggers. Newspaper is fantastic, although Yorick's hand slots may be full.
Eucatastrophe (TCU player card) on Yorick is great if you can afford to keep paying for it. As it's already in your discard pile when you get to the point of resolving the Elder Sign effect, it recurs itself!
Will Yorick + badge + time worn brand = murder machine. I’ve been playing him through Dreameaters (which i’ve also videoed,plug,plug) and he’s both great fun and very efficient. His only drawback is that his assets can get expensive....There’s all sorts of assets you can add to mix things up a bit as well. Probably my favourite character in all of Arkham lcg.
Thanks you for this, your guides are always really helpful. For a true solo build what would you replace "Let me handle this" with? Any other solo build recommendations for Will Yorick to play Carcosa? As well as 2 Core sets and Carcosa, I have Dunwich.
Looking through the cards, it's a tough call. I like Resourceful, but it only hits Lucky (and the Shovel, Keepsake, Coat if they're in your discard pile). I'd also consider just switching it out with an Unexpected Courage.
Question, could I use "Bury them deep" against "the thing that follows" from another player's deck and take it out of their deck for the remainder of the scenario?
I had this same question and unfortunately the answer is no because "The Thing That Follows" reads "When TTTF would be defeated instead shuffle into it's bearer's deck" where "Bury Them Deep" reads "play after a non-elite enemy at your location is defeated". The Thing That Follows has a replacement effect meaning it's technically not defeated meaning you can't add it to the Victory Display. Sucks, but Bury Them Deep is still an amazing signature that can remove really annoying non elite enemies

As an experianced play I still love these videos.
The knife is valid target for your after defeat trigger as it was placed is discard as a cost for the attack.

Any suggestions on the upgrade cards , which of the starting deck cards to drop? (besides the obvious beat cop upgrade etc)

I own a few other cycles (Dunwich, Forgotten Age, Dream Eaters). Are there any inclusions from those that you recommend?

Looking for an investigator to pair Yorick with. Any thoughts?
Yorick is a very solid monster fighter, so pairing him with a clue getter would be great. Daisy/Rex/Minh are all good choices.
Mihn. She can easily boost your stats for checks even from a distance once she has her unique card out.
Old key ring instead of newspaper/shovel.
I disagree, there is no test for shovel and Yorick has one book.
Does "old shotgun" (from Edge of the Earth expansion) come in play with 2 ammo when you use his free triggerd ability after he defeats an enemy?
Old Shotgun says "while playing an event" so it wouldn't come with ammo.
