Track: Yone's E — Soul Unbound (22–10s cooldown). His burst window — survive it and punish the body he snaps back to.
Read from Hwei's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Yone.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Hwei's longer range and immediate spell access let him control level 1 trades before Yone gets going |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Continued poke access keeps Hwei ahead as Yone still lacks a reliable gap-closer |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Full combo unlocked, Hwei can zone Yone off CS more aggressively than Yone can punish |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Even — his dash-ins start connecting and Spirit Cleave shields the first paint every 14s |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Even — Fate Sealed pulls from 1000 range, but a poked Yone lacks the health to open the fight with it |
| First item | Even / skill | Hwei's ranged zoning translates well into skirmishes once items grant more one-shot combo potential |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | Hwei's sustained range advantage compounds in extended fights, letting him kite and punish dives |
Levels 1-2 you have longer range threats but Yone's mobility and passive shield make him hard to zone completely; still, careful positioning keeps him from just walking you down for free trades. Track Soul Unbound: 22s at rank 1, 10s at rank 5 — when it ends he is dragged back to his body, so stand where that snap-back lands and paint it.
