His purple shit has a lifespan, but I realize now what idrisz is getting at with casting that shit on his ghosts, it’ll just keep bouncing around.
But he will possibly out damage Malz while Malz runs out of mana. There are less creeps in Dominion.

His malefic vision will bounce between yorick’s summon, since yorick’s summon have so little health.
Also malzahar kills tanky character with W.
I never had much of mana issue in Dominion, I believe they boost mana regen in that game mode, like 100% more.

It’s boosted but you will still run out attempting to keep up with Yorick.
What’s a good Yorick build, and how do you play him? Tank? AP?

Popular choice is Manamune and Spirit Visage. He’s tanky AD.
You know who doesn’t counter Yorick? Anivia.

I’ve been fucked up by a Yorick rocking Triforce, I don’t know if that’s a thing.
A clearer explanation of Malzahar’s Malefic Visions: it’s cast on a single enemy target and has a fixed duration. If the target it’s on dies while Malefic Visions is still active on it, it jumps to the nearest enemy target in range. If there is no such target in range, it ends.
I took Malz bot against Yorick recently, it is a little tough to keep up at first but if you’re maxing Visions it’s not too bad after a few levels in it. You can drop your pool under them and even hit them with Q if necessary to keep your E going longer, if you’re trying to hold back Yorick’s lane pushing and you don’t expect to need them for Yorick himself before they’re off CD again. The great thing about Visions is that, like Morgana, once you have enough AP to keep it going perpetually, you can drop it and walk away if things might get hot there.
EDIT: I almost forgot. You get mana back when a Target with an active Visions on it dies, which helps you stay there pushing back.
And unlike HoN, you get full experience from creep kills that you got the last hit for with a spell, even if you’re not in range, right?

Correct. Morgana can pool a whole creep wave and then walk away.
Heimer also with his turrets can collect gold and exp while being back at base.

Tri-Force on tanky DPS is a thing as much as AtMogs on tanky DPS is a thing.

On 9/13 Toshiba received my laptop. On 10/14 they shipped it back. World class service, ladies and gents.
Can’t wait to see how rusty I am.

god, why don’t you just buy a proper desktop like a normal person.
Nothing happened while you were gone.

I’d never buy a Toshiba either.

Poking around a little more tonight. Are some champions just always available to play? I notice I don’t actually own any of them, but I have quite a few to choose from anyway.
There’s a rotation of ten different champs every week.

Toshiba owns Westinghouse. They are the best nuclear company, and the AP1000 is the shit. Anyone who says otherwise is full of it.
Annie weirds me out.

Man, I always forget how hilarious Nasus’s power curve is.
“Lazy, watch out! You’re alone up there!”
DOUBLE KILL!
“Never mind.”
Cooldown Xerath didn’t do great. In the end, the fundamental problem is that if they dodge your Q, you’ve got one spell to do anything to them with and then Brand runs into your face and eats you.
And Q is laughably easy to dodge.
Won a game and a lane with Morgana vs a capable Brand… so I’m not completely awful, but I really think Xerath might be a bit that way.
