Who Wins the Yone vs Zed Matchup?

Yone vs Zed Matchup Summary
The Yone vs Zed matchup is a very close matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 123 recent matches analyzed, Zed wins with a 51.2% win rate compared to Yone's 48.8%, giving Zed a 2.4 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Zed controls the early laning stage, but Yone outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Zed needs to press advantages before Yone reaches their power spikes, while Yone should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Yone leads by 0.4s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. While Zed is slightly favored, Yone can absolutely win this lane through smart trading patterns and wave management. Focus on playing around your cooldowns, conceding CS only when necessary, and capitalizing on Zed's mistakes. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.
