Overview

Deny Yone's scaling by punishing his committed trades and forcing him to miss his (E) snapback.
This is a control vs scaling matchup where Poppy aims to disrupt Yone's mobility and snowball potential.

Trading pattern

Trade around your passive shield and terrain, using (Q) to slow and (W) to deny Yone's dash engages.
Punish (E) when he commits near walls by landing your (E) stun and follow-up damage.
Avoid wasting (W) early; hold it to interrupt Yone's gap closes and force short, favorable trades.

Danger windows

Respect (E) knockup and snapback as a main engage and disengage tool.
Avoid fighting when your (W) is down, as your anti-dash threat is significantly reduced.
Be cautious around level 6 when Yone can use (R) to instantly turn fights with displacement and knockups.

Early game

Focus on short trades using (Q) and passive shield while holding (W) to punish Yone's dash engages.
Use terrain to threaten (E) stuns and avoid fighting away from walls where your stun threat is weaker.
Avoid extended trades before your first tank item when Yone's early combo and shield are stronger.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to disengage or isolate Yone, resetting bad fights or creating numbers advantage.
After first tank item, hold (W) for dashes and fight near walls to maximize durability and control.
Respect Yone's level 3 unlock of (Q)-(W)-(E) combo and his first attack speed item spikes by playing safe and punishing cooldowns.

Win conditions

Deny Yone's dash-based trades with well-timed (W) and punish his positioning near walls with (E) stuns.
Use your tank durability and crowd control to peel for your team and disrupt Yone's all-ins.
Control fights by using (R) to disengage or isolate Yone, preventing him from snowballing through side-lane pressure.
