How to win lane as Yone against Olaf · 49.45% win rate (1,725 Emerald+ games, lolalytics, sampled July 2026) · Matchup data reviewed on patch 26.15
His R ignores CC + true damage — anti-heal, kite axes.
Track: Olaf's R — Ragnarok (100–80s cooldown). CC-immune — your knockup won’t hold him.
Read from Yone's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Olaf.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Olaf | Olaf wins level 1 — his Undertow slow and true-damage E out-trade you before you have tools. |
| Level 2 | Olaf | Level 2 stays his; his axe-reset aggression punishes any trade you attempt. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3 is a skill window where dodging his axe lets you contest evenly. |
| Levels 4-5 | Olaf | Levels 4-5 favour Olaf again as his bruiser trades and sustain overwhelm your health bar. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | At 6 it's a skill check, but Ragnarok's CC-immunity blunts your all-in, keeping it a wash at best. |
| First item | Olaf | First item is Olaf's — his true damage and lifesteal beat your DPS in extended duels. |
| Two+ items | Yone | Late is finally yours as Olaf falls off and your items plus E-kiting take over fights. |
Olaf wins the opening levels — his Undertow slow and Reckless Swing true damage let him force trades you can't fully answer, and picking his axe back up refreshes his aggression. Play safe, dodge axes, and don't get caught in an early all-in.

Nobody on paper — a 49.45% win rate over 1,725 games makes this a coin flip decided by play, not champion select.
Yes — Yone vs Olaf is a genuine skill matchup: 49.45% win rate, and the favour swings window to window rather than being set at champion select.
No hard counter either way — the Yone vs Olaf win rate is 49.45%, an even lane decided by execution.
Yone takes Lethal Tempo on the Precision tree with Triumph, Legend: Alacrity and Last Stand, and Resolve secondary (Bone Plating and Unflinching) vs Olaf.
Start Doran's Blade + Health Potion and back for Executioner's Calling (≈800g) — cuts his healing. Build Blade of the Ruined King (mixed-damage spike) first, then Infinity Edge, with Plated Steelcaps.
