Man, the heartbreak thing is real. Felt my first real heartbreak back in early may of this year, took me a month or so to finally eat normally and not barely eat at all. Take care of yourselves. I know it feels like nothing matters when it happens, but you matter. Apply some of those irl fundamentals and heal that heart. You’ll only come back stronger. Much love my fellow piggies and thank you for bringing attention to it Alois and editor ❤️
A strat with maiden poking, is when you E a player whos under a turret, typically the maiden will receive agro, so a lot of yorick players avoid throwing E under tower, What you can do to avoid this and MAXIMIZE maiden damage, is if you throw E, maiden runs down and you take tower agro for point second, not saying take a tower shot, just the agro. This will reset the towers agro onto the minions and youre maiden doesnt get hit at all. In some cases, its even worth it to tank a shot for ur maiden.
Hey there ! Psychologist here (also not a native in english so I hope you'll forgive my approximate phrasing). Gotta say that being heartbroken can be compared with grief. Except that the person you mourn still gets their body to live. But only their body. No matter what it will still take time. About what I stated above, let me explain a bit more, if we were to simplify (it's always needed to do so when tryng to access the essence of the subject) there are 2 possibilities realistically : 1 - You don't have to "not love" anymore the person you were in love to begin with. Because the one that broke your heart is not -anymore- the one you love, it's a different person. The only job you have now is just to scrap everything you loved about that person and create a baseline for what you want to see and what you don't want to see in someone in order to be in a relationship with them. You basically shape (and also sharpen) your taste in matters of people. It's called creating limits and respecting them. 2 - The person that broke your heart is still the same that you were in love with. The short version here is : You either lied to yourself or you are still being lied to. Long version is : If you lied to yourself about who the person is, you can take your time to remember about all those times that things sounded off and you just didn't want to see it. Destroy, piece by piece, this person you created and applied like a skin to see the real person that you actually couldn't fall in love with in the first place without applying said skin. If you don't think you lied to yourself and don't see where you were being lied to, you also need to take your time and debunk things with someone you trust, or a professional to help with it. When you'll manage to do these things, do the 1st point after. Also : If you surround yourself with things that make you remember the person, and also keep in touch, chances are that you are walking on a moving terrain and impeding yourself from healing. To put it simply : You can't change your furnitures if you keep the old ones. Get rid of the old furnitures, then replace them. You can't make more room than the size of the room itself, there are only 24 hours in a day, don't allocate them more than needed for those who don't do it for you. As a last word, I will just insist about something : Grief can take time. So take it. Actively, not passively. About YORICK : Maxing W second could be an idea to consider against aa reset champs.
Wow, excellent advice man. I got heartbroken a few months ago, really long term relationship, thought she was the one etc. And out of the countless videos I've watched I've only seen one mention that you don't actually have to stop loving the person just because it didnt work out, which clicked with me more than the other kinds of advice people gave. Thanks for writing this out!
Alois I have been playing league of legends and hardstuck silver for 14 years and watching your videos for the last three months has made me noticeably better at the game. I appreciate you for the educational content you upload, but also I appreciate that you show when you get frustrated and how you work through that frustration. Thank you and continue being cool.
Hey man just wanted to explain that Yorick quote since I get that question quite often ( I have it as a tattoo on my forearm). Quagmire can mean many things it can describe a soft boggy area of land that gives way underfoot. it can also mean an awkward, complex, or hazardous situation. In Yorick's case it can in a way mean both his life is complex to navigate is hazardous, and is really up to him when it is over, compared to others people's lives whom are fleeting and not as much in their control in when it ends. For the boggy area it can be interrupted as where he is conducting his Life's work on the shadow isles'. Although when explaining it to people I tend to explain using the Former since its more understandable, with yours and others knowledge of league the latter is also suitable. Hope this helps, and keep up the amazing content!
Nah i was not expecting that heartbreak thing and honestly it could not have come at a better time, Thank you for all the in game and irl fundamentals you teach us boss
I'm a person who follows a pretty strong moral compass, so hearing Alois be so kind about giving real advice makes me wanna support him even more. If more famous people had a good heart, this world would be a lot better place to be
Hi Alois, i don't know if you're going to read it but i don't wanna go to Reddit again. I'm a jungle main from a small asia server and it hasn't been a great year for me. I learn from your videos alot and i appreciate what you're doing for free. I have the basics prep for next season imma quit jungle for my mental health sake. Thankyou my pig king.
Yeh jungle is stressful bro normally in a lane if you lose lane your feel like your lane is out of controll , when you play jungle you feel like you are responsible for everything... It can get very overwhelming
@@iplayvayne9769 generally i don't have problems with losing lanes but in my server they just turn their brain off after losing playing like they don't want to win. I have all these knowledge about lanning and i can't apply it to my games because i'm a jungler that's pretty much it.
i love the edits in this video. normally it can get annoying when editors spam memes and i want to just watch the original content, but this is really tasteful, kinda like the editor is also a spectator
Hey Alois, on yorick you pretty much go tri into Serylda's Grudge. Afterwards its free reign. Liandries/shojin/Eclipse/Steraks are great items. But the 2 item Core is a must.
I disagree, especially now that eclipse triggers faster from ghouls it’s a completely valid first item, and then depending on enemy comp you can go Iceborne/trinity/strikebreaker into shojin liandrys and/or tank items
So a Quagmire is kind of like a swamp, where your surroundings are mushy and give way underfoot. So the line at 25:25 means that life is slow, unmoving, and almost suffocating with how difficult it is to trudge through
@@tidalwaffles I'm building Triforce into Serylda's Grudge every single game. Lethality is dead imo, especially with Conqueror being so strong. You don't lack raw AD and would rather be beefier while getting the Sheen proc early on. The MS, AS, and health you get from Trinity work amazingly with the setup I'm running, especially with the Conqueror buff this patch. Your ghouls now deal the equivalent damage of last patch's lethality build just by spamming E, thanks to the Conqueror stacks. I go secondary Inspiration tree with Approach Velocity and Free Boots so I can rush Trinity and Grudge as fast as possible without worrying about boots. With Ghost, Approach Velocity, and Free Boots, you get so much MS when you land your E, it's actually busted. I also start Longsword since I realized that most matchups are so sh*t that buying a Doran item is just a waste of money when you could build toward Trinity faster.
My girlfriend broke up with me a day or two after this video, I just now am seeing it 10 days after its release, and holy shit that beginning segment I needed to hear soo badly. Thank you, Papa Piggy
Remember if you feel bad, take a moment to let those emotions pass through you and be aware of them, don’t push them away and deny them. Good luck out there bros
I almost feel like that guy was trying to make a joke, saying "hearth" instead of "heart". But then it got way too real, way too fast, so there was no backing out 🤣
20:17 i know he's joking but he simply didn't build a release Maiden build, usually maiden alone bodies aatrox with just liandry, also love the plentyful of moments where alois would have won by pure skill but didn't because of them surviving with 1hp, all because of the massive nerfs to yorick ghoul damage
It’s a nice change, one really weird thing, bug I think is that the jump attack the gouls do itself doesnt count towards Conq, only the first auto after the jump. Can’t think of any reason why it should be that way
Only once to select a target for maiden to do her job and it works like a briar R I believe + if you use it on a lane Maiden pushes that lane by herself and can has her own 4 ghouls but once you got too close max 4/4 ghouls comes in to play
I wouldn't say releasing madden is a useless feature. there is some good situational uses for releasing her. such as a 1/4/1 push (4 members in mid one in side and madden in side).
I actually need to test some stuff if they fixed yorick conquerer. Last time malignance, conquerer and shojin all broke on yorick which sucked. Gotta update ma spreadsheet
Alois I had a question for you if you can answer it I play Yorick I never build eclipse on him I got trinity force into prof hydra than either hull or a steraks depending on enemie comp if I need more sustain. Just wondering should I be rushing eclipse in games instead as I feel like trinity rush gives me more split push power from one item spike. Please let me know what you think.
Eclipse is matchup specific... Think of it sort of like irelia rushing edge of night into a vayne instead of the normal bork start ... It's only better in certain situations
Yorick has been so much overnerfed because of lower elo bracket that he just feels weak to play against anything above plat. They nerfed his ghouls damage to the ground, to the point that the ghouls feel like I'm applying a DOT to the enemy. It's to the point that we have to build liandries to do damage, like how sad is that (fyi: Liandries remain only a situational item into split pushing maiden strategy, which is only used in very few games). Also, eclipse is extremely bad on him. I have over 100+ games with first item ravenous hydra on him being the best (sustain is just too good, along with high AD and ability haste, plus tiamat). I was a Yorick main until Riot pushed the last 2 Yorick nerfs that reduced the bonus damage ghouls do after E hit and then they even nerfed the base damage of ghouls, and then after extensively testing him out, I came to the conclusion that he's just not worth putting much effort into. Another biggest problem of Yorick is that his ghouls damage is heavily pushed into level scaling (the base damage). This means a lvl 18 2 item Yorick is much better than a lvl 12 4 item Yorick. You can go look at his level scalings of ghouls, they scale very aggressively from lvl 13 onwards, and early game, they're extremely weak af, which just feels even horrible to play in lane. Like early game scaling is even worse than what you would allow a real scaling champion in their kit. Just overall irregularities and inconsistencies all over his kit makes him feel very unsatisfying to play (and play against at times). Unless they do a sort of mini rework on his everything, he's out of my champ pool. They need to also stop with the mixed damage in his kit. The damage being so split up, I see people saying it's hard to itemize against him and all that, but in reality, just the base scalings + a little bit of extra resists (say from a single item or a support's kit or whatever) is enough to make that split damage be equivalent to nothing). I'd much rather prefer a full AD damage or full AP damage rework of his damage type, like how Ksante got that recently. This would also somewhat fix him being low elo skew since enemy building armor would be efficient. The best benefit is that you can benefit from armor/MR penetration items yourself throughout the whole kit, instead of your E and Maiden doing magic damage which gets 0 benefit from your Serylda's or Cleaver. Like it just sucks, the best penetration item for him is unironically terminus, but as you can guess, terminus's benefits are good but it's very hard to keep it's uptime on Yorick unless you're constantly able to stick to enemies and auto attacking them, which is just not realistically possible in 90% of the scenarios. Hence a rework is desperately needed. He will now only remain a very situational pick into very few champs, otherwise there are so many other champs that will perform much better than him with much less effort and also feel *SATISFYING* to play meanwhile.
Wasn't this the behavior like last season or a couple splits ago? But it was Yorick was OP bc it also applied Eclipse, so they removed it? So they just brought it back?

Alois and Yorick, my favourite combo
It’s a nice change, one really weird thing, bug I think is that the jump attack the gouls do itself doesnt count towards Conq, only the first auto after the jump. Can’t think of any reason why it should be that way
I love you AloisNL!!
Are you not able to control the Maiden like you can Tibbers?
Only once to select a target to attack until either the target or Maiden goes %0 on hp i believe
Only once to select a target for maiden to do her job and it works like a briar R I believe + if you use it on a lane Maiden pushes that lane by herself and can has her own 4 ghouls but once you got too close max 4/4 ghouls comes in to play
I thought youtube deleted the comment because of "attack" or something like that sorry
game 4 is absolutely killing me at the start 🤣🤣🤣
Haha you funny I like your video time to subscribe!
He is back 🥶😱
I wouldn't say releasing madden is a useless feature. there is some good situational uses for releasing her. such as a 1/4/1 push (4 members in mid one in side and madden in side).
also dont release maiden if you dont have AP items
irelia is the worst matchup... jax is manageable , you just need to take your time and slow the game
As an Irelia player, Jax is NOT Yorick's worst matchup, lol
thanks a lot bro

ngl didnt expect the heartbreak part. I watch vids on youtube to think about something else. caught me offguard there
You should do a Bel'veth.
What a great video omg
I wish riot would make this change for Naafiri..
can make a video when the enemy doesnt push the bounce
You should try comet on Yorick with serylda, yomus , shojin, profane hydra and Opportunity or Edge of Night
That build is op but if you can't hit your e consistently is sucks ds

I wonder if this means manamune works on every ghoul aa now...? Could be good
Alois I had a question for you if you can answer it I play Yorick I never build eclipse on him I got trinity force into prof hydra than either hull or a steraks depending on enemie comp if I need more sustain. Just wondering should I be rushing eclipse in games instead as I feel like trinity rush gives me more split push power from one item spike. Please let me know what you think.
Eclipse is matchup specific... Think of it sort of like irelia rushing edge of night into a vayne instead of the normal bork start ... It's only better in certain situations
I was going to roast you but I saw the other comments so I'll wait til next video
Yorick has been so much overnerfed because of lower elo bracket that he just feels weak to play against anything above plat. They nerfed his ghouls damage to the ground, to the point that the ghouls feel like I'm applying a DOT to the enemy. It's to the point that we have to build liandries to do damage, like how sad is that (fyi: Liandries remain only a situational item into split pushing maiden strategy, which is only used in very few games). Also, eclipse is extremely bad on him. I have over 100+ games with first item ravenous hydra on him being the best (sustain is just too good, along with high AD and ability haste, plus tiamat).
I was a Yorick main until Riot pushed the last 2 Yorick nerfs that reduced the bonus damage ghouls do after E hit and then they even nerfed the base damage of ghouls, and then after extensively testing him out, I came to the conclusion that he's just not worth putting much effort into. Another biggest problem of Yorick is that his ghouls damage is heavily pushed into level scaling (the base damage). This means a lvl 18 2 item Yorick is much better than a lvl 12 4 item Yorick. You can go look at his level scalings of ghouls, they scale very aggressively from lvl 13 onwards, and early game, they're extremely weak af, which just feels even horrible to play in lane. Like early game scaling is even worse than what you would allow a real scaling champion in their kit. Just overall irregularities and inconsistencies all over his kit makes him feel very unsatisfying to play (and play against at times).
Unless they do a sort of mini rework on his everything, he's out of my champ pool. They need to also stop with the mixed damage in his kit. The damage being so split up, I see people saying it's hard to itemize against him and all that, but in reality, just the base scalings + a little bit of extra resists (say from a single item or a support's kit or whatever) is enough to make that split damage be equivalent to nothing). I'd much rather prefer a full AD damage or full AP damage rework of his damage type, like how Ksante got that recently. This would also somewhat fix him being low elo skew since enemy building armor would be efficient. The best benefit is that you can benefit from armor/MR penetration items yourself throughout the whole kit, instead of your E and Maiden doing magic damage which gets 0 benefit from your Serylda's or Cleaver. Like it just sucks, the best penetration item for him is unironically terminus, but as you can guess, terminus's benefits are good but it's very hard to keep it's uptime on Yorick unless you're constantly able to stick to enemies and auto attacking them, which is just not realistically possible in 90% of the scenarios. Hence a rework is desperately needed.
He will now only remain a very situational pick into very few champs, otherwise there are so many other champs that will perform much better than him with much less effort and also feel *SATISFYING* to play meanwhile.
Thumbnail is cursed
Always has been
Wasn't this the behavior like last season or a couple splits ago? But it was Yorick was OP bc it also applied Eclipse, so they removed it? So they just brought it back?
How to know if you are strong lvl 1 vs panth or not because I know this info for specifc matches, is there a website or smth?
definitely the worst yorick matchup is not jax, its irelia, jax would be like fighting a rottweiler while irelia would be like fighting a grizzly bear
