Yone is a highly mobile champion with powerful scaling potential. Here's how to effectively counter him in lane and teamfights.

Top Counter Picks:

• Riven
• Cassiopeia
• Kennen
• Warwick
• Irelia

Laning Phase Strategy:

• Punish Yone after he returns from his Spirit Form (E)
• Keep distance and avoid chasing when he uses E
• Ranged champions should maintain safe distance while harassing
• Focus on farming and avoiding all-ins before level 6

Teamfight Tactics:

• Spread out to deny Yone multi-target ultimate opportunities
• Avoid enclosed spaces like jungle corridors
• Don't chase Yone through unwarded areas
• Focus him during his return animation from E

Key Power Spikes:

• Level 6: Ultimate provides significant kill pressure
• 100% Critical Strike: Massive damage increase (due to passive doubling crit chance)
• Two-item completion: Usually Immortal Shieldbow + Infinity Edge

Champion Specifics:

• Weak early game before first item
• Strong scaling into late game
• Excels in enclosed spaces
• Vulnerable when E is on cooldown
• Requires proper spacing and timing to counter

Remember that Yone's strength lies in his ability to engage and disengage quickly. Proper wave management and positioning are crucial for successful counter-play.
