How to win lane as Orianna against Yone · 48.53% win rate over 2,510 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Orianna | Orianna — she out-ranges and out-pokes melee Yone at levels 1-2, winning the early trades with ball harass. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Skill — the level 6 ult interaction is a reaction coinflip: whoever times R correctly on the other's engage/re-emergence wins. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Skill — first-item trades hinge on Orianna landing poke vs Yone finding a clean Q3+R all-in window. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Skill — sidelane and roam decisions are even; Yone's R dive range offsets Orianna's wave control. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Skill — teamfight positioning is a mutual test: her Shockwave value vs his flank timing balance out. |
| First item | Even / skill | Skill — scaling and item spikes trade off, so mid-to-late skirmishes depend on execution, not the matchup. |
| Two+ items | Orianna | Orianna — as a premier teamfighter she wins the 5v5 outright when she lands Shockwave on Yone's dive and peels for her team. |
Orianna controls the early lane with superior range and poke — drop the ball on Yone and Q-W to harass him whenever he steps up to farm, since he is melee and takes free damage. Keep the ball between you and him so his Q dashes and Q3 knockup are less rewarding. Respect his level 1-2 passive-stack windows and back off when his weapon glows, but otherwise you should win the CS and health race.
