Aatrox	Easy	284	50%	-264	+507	Do not trade with him when he has his passive auto up. Use your e to dodge his q2 or q3 sweet spots or use it to get out of his w. Avoid fighting him when he is in his ult, since he might be able to outheal your damage.

Syndra	Hard	281	49%	-402	-554	Syndra is an annoying ranged lane, but she is weaker early after her rework. When trading, E to the side or behind you to dodge her E stun. Do not Q at her when she is about to Q-E. After Level 6, it gets easier as she lacks a dash. If you can't dodge the stun, time your Q3 as you are getting stunned to buffer the CC and hit her.

Orianna	Even	266	53%	-178	+384	Orianna is unique because her hitbox of concern is her ball, not herself. You want to position to force her to choose between attacking you or the wave. You want to time your E when she Q's to negate the Q damage, and then run at her. If you dodge her Q, she has no damage.

Sylas	Easy	264	52%	-153	+804	Sylas is tricky; it can feel impossible if he goes Ignite/Electrocute. Go Doran's Shield for sustain. You must save your E for when he uses E to dash into the minions, so the second part of his E does not land. Avoid taking even trades because his W gives him superior sustain.

Sion	Easy	256	55%	+260	+1,256	Sion is one of the easiest lanes. Use E to dodge his Q charge-up. You can easily get his W shield off him. Only watch out for lethality Sion holding Q in a bush.

Ahri	Favored	252	48%	-179	+125	Always CS away from your wave so she must choose between poking you or the wave with Q. When you trade, position your Q3 so that the minions are between you and her, making it impossible for her to land Charm. Advanced trick: Q-Flash to the side to dodge her Charm, then quickly Ult her to catch her off guard.


Akali	Very Hard	236	38%	-585	-820	Very difficult matchup for Yone where you don't have agency. Only go for short trades, taking Grasp. Only Q3 if a minion is between you and her to block her E. Never use E until she uses her W (stealth), or you will get zero value from your E duration. When she Ults, instantly Ult where she dashes or Ult away to trade Ults/escape.
