Leblanc Win Condition

This is considered a fantastic matchup for Leblanc. Your win condition is to "absolutely bully the living shit out of him". You win by forcing him into predictable situations—his linear trading style makes him vulnerable to yourLeblanc EE (Chain) and allows you to easily dodge his damage using your mobility.

Yone Win Condition

Yone must minimize your burst damage and avoid your chains. He wins by successfully using his linear dashes to evade your abilities and farm safely until he can out-sustain you in longer trades.

General Strategy

Because Yone is a "very linear champion," it is easy to read his engagements and disengagements. The strategy revolves around using a slow push to keep the wave pushed onto him, creating trading windows. You must abuse his predictable movement to land yourLeblanc EE. If he starts acting erratic, he is "getting completely lost" due to the pressure.

Trading Patterns

You have a specific, highly effective strategy to counter his movement: When you hit him, drag the minions back to force him to walk up further into the lane. A key tactic is hitting him in the tower (i. Leblanc EE.

, hitting him with a Leblanc WW or Leblanc QQ under turret when he is near it). Post-six, if he Ultimates, the goal is often to use yourLeblanc RR or other mobility to keep space and deny his damage.

Wave Management

Use a slow push to move the wave onto him, creating trading windows. Because your auto attacks are slow, you can effectively hit him under his turret. You want to maintain the minion wave slightly closer toward your side to drag the minion wave back and manage your tempo.
