Who Wins
- You lose most pre-6 all-ins due to Yone's mobility and burst potential, but can win short trades with Q shred into W auto attacks if you maintain proper spacing.
- Post-6 you gain significant safety with R for disengage and poke, making it much harder for Yone to execute clean all-ins.
How to Trade
- Your trading pattern focuses on Q to reduce his resistances, then W auto attacks while maintaining maximum range to avoid his E engage.
- Use R for poke when he's low or to disengage when he commits with E, never face-tank his full combo.
Wave Control
- Farm safely and give up CS when necessary to avoid Yone's E engage range, using your superior scaling to justify the early deficit.
- Freeze waves near your tower when possible to make his E engages more dangerous due to tower and minion positioning.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste R for poke when Yone has E available, as you need it for disengage when he commits.
- Avoid face-checking brushes or overextending without vision, as Yone can easily set up ganks with his E mobility and R engage.
