How to play Yone
Read the full guide
Build lane contact around Q3 and W, not just the dash in: if Q3 makes them give ground and W clips the champion plus something else, the shield often buys the extra step or auto that makes Yone’s trade actually stick
A lot of fake Yone trades start when you E in before the charm, stun, or disengage spell has been spoken for; the snapback is strongest when E is answering a specific button, not just announcing that you want to fight
Yone’s better games usually open after one mid-lane punish buys a shoved side wave and a hidden Q3, then R is used as the door through the peel line or onto the champion guarding the carry instead of being saved only for a perfect backline clip
Ult once the fight gives you a line that changes access, not only when it offers a perfect carry highlight. If their carry is still fully guarded, look for the peel champion, the support, or the frontliner holding the space you need to cross; hitting that target can open the rest of the fight for your autos and Q cycle. In lane and small skirmishes, the same rule applies: use R after you have already forced a bad step, burned mobility, or made them respect Q3, so the cast finishes a problem instead of starting a guess. If the ult lands and you still have room to keep hitting, it was probably a good one.
Yone deals magic damage with every second Attack. In addition, his critical strike chance is increased.
Thrusts forward, damaging all enemies in a line.On hit, grants a stack of Gathering Storm for a few seconds. At 2 stacks, Mortal Steel dashes Yone forward with a gust of wind knocking enemies Airborne.
Cleaves forward, damaging all enemies in a cone. Grants a shield to Yone, the value is increased by the number of champions hit by the swipe.Spirit Cleave's cooldown and cast time scale with attack speed.
Yone's spirit leaves his body behind, gaining Move Speed. When this ability ends, Yone's spirit is forced back to his body and he repeats a portion of the damage he dealt as a spirit.
Yone blinks behind the last champion in a line with a slash so powerful it pulls all enemies hit towards him.
