What are some tips for the Yone vs. Viktor matchup?

This is a boring and telegraphed lane. Early game, time your W to negate his Q damage while farming. When trading, get Q3, E at him, deal damage, and E back before his W is about to stun you. If he walks back up (since his W is his only defense), you can Ult back in to kill him. You can time your Ult right before his W stun to buffer it.

Viktor	Favored	363	50%	-7	+434	This is a boring and telegraphed lane. Early game, time your W to negate his Q damage while farming. When trading, get Q3, E at him, deal damage, and E back before his W is about to stun you. If he walks back up (since his W is his only defense), you can Ult back in to kill him. You can time your Ult right before his W stun to buffer it.

Ahri	Hard	358	43%	-240	-99	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.

Syndra	Very Hard	346	42%	-390	-1,052	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.

Akali	Very Hard	322	40%	-511	-711	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.

Katarina	Even	294	47%	-427	-730	This matchup is often harder than people think. Your E is mostly useless because she can E right back to minions. Save E to interrupt or escape her Ultimate. You must avoid standing next to daggers. Ult her only if her E is on cooldown. A trick is to Q3 or run at her, aiming your Q3 at the dagger spot to confuse her.

Sylas	Easy	293	54%	-25	+998	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.

Aatrox	Easy	268	55%	-198	+889	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.
