Threats & Synergies
Akali
Akali is one of Yone's biggest counters. She has her Q that she can spam you with in early lvl 1 with her strong auto attacks. You have to try to engage and kill her when she has used up all of her energy and then u may have a chance of beating her. So try to ban Akali in ban phase.
Zyra
Zyra has 2 abilites that has hard CC's against opponents. Yone and Zyra is one of the best synergies. Her R covers a big area of CC in teamfights.

Champion Build Guide
Why do i play Yone? I play yone because he is a really strong assassin that can easily execute enemies. Yone is also really fun to play and he is really fun because i can try different builds and tactics with different synergies.
+ Really strong
+ Mixed damage
+ Assassin
Yone is really strong with mixed
damage which gives him an advantage
over other midlaners he will be
laning against. He can easily
execute squishy enemy midlaners
Bad stuff
- Yone is very difficult
- Early game low damage
- Hard to escape from fights
Yone can be quite bad in early game
only because he is a melee champion.
Yone has many difficult combos that is
hard to master but if you learn how to
play Yone you will destroy midlane.
Ignite As for the secondary summoner spell, this will be really good for Yone to easily kill his enemies that you cant block neither can you buy armor against ignite because of its true damage Ignite gives pressure on his enemies and makes him easily snowball his lane.
Teleport You mainly want to use Teleport if you go toplane. Yone with Teleport is also good if you want to take drakes. Then your teammates can set a ward and you can easily get in the fight for the drake. Teleport also helps you scale very good.
Triumph Triumph is very useful in after fights and is really good if u are up against 2. For example if you have Ignite on you after you have killed someone and u are 1 second away from dying triumph will save you.
Legend: Alacrity Gives you the right amount of attack speed which is really important for Yone. Legend: Alacrity helps you to scale Q and W with lower cast time.
Coup de Grace This rune helps you to execute your enemies faster which makes Yone the perfect assassin. This rune is great against squishy champions but also good against tanks.
*SECONDARY RUNES*
Sudden impact easily 1 shots your enemies. Sudden impact is really good because it ignores a portion of your opponents armor. So you can easily execute your enemies.-
Ravenous hunter You mostly pick domination as your secondary runes only because of this rune. Ravenous hunter helps you get the right amount of sustain.
*POKE KEYSTONE RUNE*
Fleet footwork Fleet footwork is really good for poke and for self sustain. Fleet footwork gives you a certain amount of health and movement speed when fully charged and is really useful for enemies like,Azir,Leblanc and Akali.
Yone in the early game can be very difficult against enemy ranged champions. At levels 1-2 try to stay far behind and just farm those minions. If you are against a melee champion then you can try to poke the enemy with Mortal steel at level 3 you can try to trade with the enemy champion starting with Soul Unbound. When Soul Unbound is active spam auto attacks and Mortal Steel stacks so you gain a good engage with your third Q. Using all of this should execute squishy champions like Ziggs, Xerath, Leblanc and maybe even Akali. When you are level 6 you can easily execute your enemy. What you want to do is get your 3rd Q and then knock the opponent up with your 3rd Q and under that time you should be able to R your opponent (For better combos scroll down to "Best Yone Combos".
*MID GAME*
The mid-game is where Yone gets stronger and has lots of heavy DPS. Also in mid-game you should have Immortal Shieldbow and Infinity Edge. When having those 2 core items you will have a strong power spike of 100% crit chance. In Mid-game your main focus is starting to get some Drakes,Turrets and
Rift Herald helps you easily snowball your lane. The main goal with Yone mid-game is to play aggressively. Whenever you can use your Soul unbound and Fate Sealed to engage and kill an opponent is really good because Yone needs kills in mid-game mostly to get his perfect scale.
*LATE GAME*
Late game is all about Teamfighting,Baron Nashor and Elder Drake. During Teamfights the enemy team will always focus the strongest player. If your ADC is fed then they will focus the ADC as always which gives you the advantage to kill all the enemies. If your ADC isn't fed then they will/should focus on the Midlaner. As said they will focus on the most fed/strongest enemy player. If you have good teammate synergies like Malphite that has heavy CC and good teamfight knock up let them engage the fight and start the fight. Let the tank in your team peel for you and for your ADC. If you don't have a tank then let the person with the most CC engage the fight.
