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.

Vladimir Win Condition

They win if they can constantly poke you down or if they manage to secure an early transition gank from their jungler.

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. The main thing to respect is his Q3 (Crimson Rush/big heal). The moment his big Yone QQ is up, you must not trade.

HisVladimir WW (Pool) cooldown is 28 seconds, so if it's down, he is a "sitting duck". A powerful trading pattern is to stack Q1 beforehand, then Yone EE + Q2 into him. While you are dashing, your Q3 stacks, forcing Vladimir to choose whether to Yone WW early or late, guaranteeing you get some damage off.

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.
