Renekton vs Yone

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Renekton wants to snowball early by using high lane pressure and short burst trades to deny Yone's scaling and lane agency.
Control early waves and force Yone into passive farming to prevent him from setting up his (E)+(Q) trade pattern effectively.

Trading pattern

Initiate trades with high fury using (E) dash in, empowered (W) stun, (Q) for healing, and exit safely on second (E) dash unless winning all-in.
Punish Yone when he wastes (E) for engage or escape by committing to burst trades before he can snap back.
Respect (E) knockup and (Q) third-cast knockup cooldowns; avoid trading when these are available to prevent being locked down.

Danger windows

Be cautious when Yone has (E) available for engage and snapback, as he can punish overextensions.
Avoid trading when (Q) third-cast knockup or (R) displacement is up, as these can turn fights instantly.
After using both (E) casts forward, avoid extended fights since you lose mobility and become vulnerable to counterattacks.

Early game

Use level 1-3 to aggressively stack fury and trade short bursts with (E) + empowered (W) plus (Q) to punish Yone before he unlocks his full combo.
Avoid extended trades when low on fury or after using both (E) dashes forward to prevent counterpunishment.
Maintain wave control to keep lane pressure high and deny Yone the space for his (E) engage and snapback trades.

Power spikes

At level 3, use full (Q)+(W)+(E) combo with fury to force short trades and establish lane dominance before Yone's combo is reliable.
At level 6, activate (R) to gain durability and convert short trades into all-ins or dives when Yone is low or pressured.
Respect Yone's level 3 unlock of (Q)+(W)+(E) combo and his first item spike to avoid losing trades post-spike.

Win conditions

Use early wave control and fury-powered short trades to deny Yone farm and scaling opportunities.
Force Yone into passive positions by punishing his (E) cooldown and poor spacing.
Leverage level 6 (R) to convert lane pressure into kills or tower plates, snowballing lead before Yone reaches mid-game power.
