Bard vs Yuumi

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Use brush control to threaten (Q) wall stuns and create engage angles for your ADC.
Prioritize crashing waves to open safe roam windows with (E) for mid and jungle pressure.
Protect your ADC from Yuumi's poke by denying her attach and controlling river vision.

Trading pattern

Trade with meep autos and look for (Q) stuns from brush when Yuumi is detached or cooldowns are down.
Hold (W) to sustain your ADC through Yuumi's poke and speed boosts.
Use (R) only with confirmed ADC follow-up to isolate Yuumi's host or stall enemy engages.

Danger windows

(R) root during extended fights creates follow-up risk; hold peel cooldowns accordingly.
Yuumi attached with (E) sustain and (Q) poke makes your ADC vulnerable if you roam too early.
Yuumi's host positioning near brush or river can bait your (Q); maintain vision to avoid bad stuns.

Early game

Track level 2 to secure (Q)+(W) trades with ADC follow-up before Yuumi attaches.
Hold brush to threaten stuns and prevent Yuumi from safely poking with (Q).
Crash waves quickly to enable roams without leaving your ADC vulnerable to Yuumi's sustain.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks your (Q)+(W) trade combo; use it to pressure Yuumi's host before she attaches.
Level 3 grants (E) for roaming; crash wave and roam to impact mid and jungle.
Level 6 (R) can start picks or deny engages; time it with ADC follow-up and river vision control.

Win conditions

Convert brush control and (Q) stuns into ADC access denial and pick setups around dragon.
Use wave crashes to create safe roam windows with (E) for mid pressure and vision control.
Time (R) to isolate Yuumi's host and enable your ADC to follow up for kills or objective setups.
