Yone Win Condition

You win by aggressively pressuring and snowballing, as these champions' damage is low, allowing you to abuse them repeatedly with your sustain and mobility until they are forced to take a bad recall or trade. You are not threatened by their low poke damage.

Veigar Win Condition

They win if they can constantly poke you down or if they manage to secure an early transition gank from their jungler. Veigar wins by scaling, so you must deny him a handshake lane.

General Strategy

You want to be aggressive and try to keep the wave on your side as much as possible once you hit Level 3. You can be non-committal with Q3 forward and be completely fine due to their low damage.

Trading Patterns

Standard trades are with Yone EE. You must pressure him; do not handshake the scale. His Cage (E) does not stop the recess from your E (Spectral Falle), but it does stun you at your initial location. If you E + Q3 forward into the Cage, you will be stunned and stopped, failing the full dash.

Wave Management

It's very similar to Strong Early Laners, but you are way more aggressive post-Level 3, trying to keep the wave on your side as much as possible. You will use this state to pressure them until they are forced to take a bad recall or trade.
