Yone Win Condition

Your primary goal is to minimize early losses until you get your Berserker's Greaves and Vamp Scepter, after which you play for the lane win. You must abuse the sustain provided by your D Shield against their constant early damage.

Ahri Win Condition

They win by capitalizing on your weak pre-spike phase, preventing you from farming, and keeping you unhealthy, forcing bad trades.

General Strategy

Your mindset is to minimize. You should utilize Doran's Shield (D Shield) against most of these champions, often paired with Second Wind, to help stay healthy. The general trades involve using Yone EE and Q3.

Trading Patterns

Avoid standard Yone EE + Q3 trades because she will Charm you due to your linearity. Only trade when her Charm is down, or you can reactively E back into your Precast E to negate the Charming effect. A highly isolating strategy is to trade Ultimates (R), understanding she will probably dodge yourYone RR with hers, but leaving her without R for the next 70-80 seconds, allowing you to beat her on your own strengths.

Wave Management

Let the wave slowly push into you, minimizing CS loss while staying healthy. It is essential to keep the wave tentative and frozen on your side for around 80% of the lane phase.
