Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1YoneYone's Q dash lets him poke your idle body and step back before Poison Trail deals meaningful damage — you have no answer at level 1 without Fling, so proxy-position and deny him free trades.
Level 2YoneAt level 2 he completes his Q-AA-Q pattern and wins the all-in; keep Ghost off cooldown and walk away from any trade he initiates before your Mega Adhesive comes online.
Level 3Even / skillWith Mega Adhesive at level 3 you can goo his escape path, bait his Soul Unbound return into the slow, and Fling him into Poison Trail — the matchup flips the moment his E is on cooldown.
Levels 4-5SingedProxy the wave behind his tower at levels 4-5; Yone has no reliable way to punish you in his own jungle without walking through your Poison Trail the entire time.
Level 6SingedInsanity Potion at level 6 gives you enough armor, MR, and health regen to absorb a Yone full combo and keep running — ghost-proxy and force him to chase you into the cloud.
First itemSingedRylai's Crystal Scepter makes his Soul Unbound return land inside a slowed cloud, removing his escape; Fling now guarantees full Poison Trail exposure and he cannot reset cleanly.
Two+ itemsSingedTwo items in, Yone still deals high damage to a paper team but cannot kill you in the side-lane — keep splitting, force the 2-for-1, and deny him the clean teamfight angles his R knockup wants.

Early game (levels 1–5)

Yone beats you in a straight duel at levels 1 and 2 — his Q dash lets him poke your face and reset to safety before Poison Trail builds pressure, and a full Q-AA-Q sequence at level 2 puts you in a bad spot if you stand and fight. Do not chase him down, do not burn Ghost to run at him, and accept that the first two levels belong to him. Drop Poison Trail as you walk the wave, deny him free CS by threatening the Fling angle, and identify which side of the wave he prefers to stand on — you will use that knowledge at level 3 when Mega Adhesive comes online.
