Read from Vayne's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Yone.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Level 1 is a pure skill mirror: no trade pattern yet, it's spacing and last-hits. |
| Level 2 | Yone | At 2 Yone's early Q pressure and base stats let him edge the short trades. |
| Level 3 | Yone | His Q3 knock-up and E dive-and-rewind at 3 let him commit onto you nearly risk-free. |
| Levels 4-5 | Yone | Through 4-5 his E-return means your true-damage payoff can't punish his dives. |
| Level 6 | Yone | At 6 R adds a long knock-up dash that chains his full all-in over your kite. |
| First item | Yone | On his first item his sustain and E recovery still out-trade you in extended fights. |
| Two+ items | Vayne | By 2+ items Vayne's BORK true damage and Condemn finally outscale and shred him. |
Level 1 is even skill — neither of you has a real trade pattern yet, so it comes down to who spaces the wave better and dodges the first Q line. You want to keep Silver Bolts stacks ticking without eating his Q, since a landed Q3 knock-up sets up everything he does. Farm clean, respect his slightly better base stats, and don't over-extend for a stack.

Start Doran's Blade + Health Potion and back for Executioner's Calling (≈800g) — cuts his healing. Build Blade of the Ruined King (%HP duel spike) first, then Phantom Dancer, with Plated Steelcaps.
