Yone vs Yasuo

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Yone is a scaling melee skirmisher who uses E + Q combos to force trades with planned exits.
Yasuo has medium early agency and lane pressure, so Yone should avoid giving him free all-ins by respecting his mobility and knockup threats.

Trading pattern

Stack Q, then use E plus second Q to gap close and snap back with E to avoid Yasuo's counter.
Respect Yasuo's Yasuo W cooldown; when it's down, step up to trade aggressively.
Avoid using E from bad positions since Yasuo can predict your return location and punish.

Danger windows

Yasuo's second Yasuo Q tornado knockup and Yasuo R follow-up create lethal all-in windows.
Be cautious when Yasuo's Yasuo W is up, as it blocks many of your projectiles.
Vulnerable if you miss your Q knockup or R displacement, as Yasuo can punish hard then.

Early game

Focus on reaching level 3 to unlock your full Q-W-E trade pattern with E extension and W shield.
Avoid extended trades before level 3 as Yasuo can use his mobility and knockups to punish.
Use controlled wave states to limit Yasuo's E mobility and prevent him from dashing freely.

Power spikes

Your level 3 unlock of Q-W-E combo and first back attack speed boost are key to winning trades.
Yasuo's level 2 Q plus E mobility spike lets him control space early; respect this before level 3.
Yasuo's level 6 R is dangerous if he can follow up on knockups; keep track of his knockup availability.

Win conditions

Use your E + Q combo to force trades and disengage before Yasuo can retaliate.
Punish Yasuo when his Yasuo W is down or when he overextends using E from bad positions.
Scale through early levels safely to reach your stronger mid and late-game power spikes with attack speed items.
