Yone Power Spikes (Patch 26.20)

Jungle

When Yone Jungle gets stronger, in the order it happens in a typical ranked game: ability unlocks from the most common skill order, item spikes at the median minute players finish them, and the game length Yone wins most.

  1. Lv 3
    All three basic abilities at level 3
    Yone's full combo is online — the first point where trading all-in is realistic.
  2. Lv 6
    Ultimate rank 1 at level 6
    The biggest early spike: look for a kill or a roam as soon as Yone hits it.
  3. Lv 11
    Ultimate rank 2 at level 11
    Lower ultimate cooldown means more fights Yone can start or win.
  4. Lv 16
    Ultimate rank 3 at level 16
    Lower ultimate cooldown means more fights Yone can start or win.
  5. 0.2 min
    First item at 0.2 min
    Scorchclaw PupScorchclaw Pup is done — Yone's first real damage or durability spike.

Item timings are medians: half of players finish later. Fall behind in farm and every item spike moves back with it.

Yone Mid and Late Game

What Yone does better or worse than other champions after laning, from this patch's ranked games — percentiles where 100 is the highest of every champion.

Play to these strengths

  • Yone is a main damage source (93/100): stay alive and in range for the whole fight rather than diving first.
  • Yone farms well (percentile 87): keep catching side waves between fights.
  • Side-lane pressure pays: Yone rates 85/100 for damage to buildings. Push a side wave while the team holds mid.
  • Play around dragons, Grubs and Baron — Yone rates 71/100 for objective control.
  • Yone wins 2.3 points more in long games than short ones: avoid coin-flip fights early and let the game go long.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Vision is a weak spot (17/100): buy Control Wards and sweep before you face-check.
