How to beat Yuumi as Rell: the early game

You win levels 1-2 outright. Yuumi has no CC and no way to interrupt your W-Q, so any time she pokes with Q you can dash the ADC and lock it down with your auto and E. Set up a level-2 all-in behind your ADC's damage and you often get a summoner or a kill. She cannot be touched while attached and cannot stop your landing on her carry, so aim everything at their ADC. Keep the bind on your own carry beforehand, and let the stolen resists accumulate through a lane where only one of the four of you can actually be hit.
