Yone vs Kayle Matchup Summary

The Yone vs Kayle matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 141 recent matches analyzed, Yone wins with a 58.2% win rate compared to Kayle's 41.8%, giving Yone a 16.3 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Yone controls the early laning stage, but Kayle outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Yone needs to press advantages before Kayle reaches their power spikes, while Kayle should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Yone leads by 0.5s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Yone players can confidently pick into Kayle and play aggressively from level 1. Look to establish lane dominance early through favorable trades and zone Kayle away from CS whenever possible. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

1,016Yone
716Kayle
Yone heavily out-damages Kayle by 300 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Kayle should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Yone's sustained damage advantage take over.

Yone provides 0.5 seconds more crowd control per minute than Kayle, offering better gank setup potential and slightly more team fight utility. This CC advantage helps Yone coordinate with their jungler and control the pace of skirmishes.

Building grievous wounds early is essential for Kayle, and focusing on burst trade patterns rather than sustained fights is critical.

Best Yone Build Against Kayle

Berserker's Greaves is the optimal boots choice against Kayle, providing the mobility and stats Yone needs most in this matchup. The top-performing core items for Yone against Kayle are Immortal Shieldbow, Death's Dance and Blade of The Ruined King. This combination gives Yone an effective balance of damage, survivability, and utility for the matchup. This build performs exceptionally well, achieving a 75.0% win rate across 8 games — well above average and making it the top item path against Kayle.

Yone dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 68.8% win rate — a 37.5 percentage point lead over Kayle. This lopsided early game means Yone can dictate the pace of the lane from level 1, controlling trades, wave state, and river priority.

Late game (25+ minutes) is equally balanced, with Kayle at 50.6% win rate — only 1.3 points ahead of Yone. Team fight execution and macro play determine the winner at this stage, not champion matchup advantage.

The power dynamics shift as the game progresses — Yone has the edge early, but Kayle gradually takes over. However, the margins are slim enough that either champion can win at any stage with the right plays. Focus on taking advantages when you have them rather than waiting for a specific game phase.
