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.

Viktor 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

Your standard trade is with Yone EE and Q3. Bait out his Q1 (which gives him a shield and damage amplification) before you engage to make the trade more advantageous. A good specific trade is E + Q2 into Viktor; if he uses his Gravity Field (W), you use the stacking Q3 to dodge the stun and continue fighting him.

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.
