| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Taliyah | You dominate level 1 — Yone has no waveclear or sustain and eats free Q poke as he last-hits. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | At 2 your Q double-cast still outranges and outpokes his melee range, keeping you ahead. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3 with W-E-Q online lets you punish any Q3 or Soul Unbound whiff for heavy damage. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Through 4-5 you keep zoning his farm and your peel combo beats his pre-6 all-in. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | You still hold the edge at 6 in farm and poke, but this is his strongest window with Fate Sealed engage. |
| First item | Yone | First item tips to Yone: crit plus Q3 dash resets close past your poke before your own spike answers. |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | Post-ultimate your waveclear, cross-map R, and reliable anti-dash W put you back ahead into items. |
You win level 1-2 hard: Yone has no waveclear, no sustain, and dies to sustained Q poke. Auto-Q him whenever he approaches a minion, keep your distance, and start shoving so he's pinned under pressure before his kit comes online. Track Soul Unbound is 22s at rank 1, 10 at max — survive the spirit window and punish the body he snaps back to.
