Yone vs Ornn

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Yone is a scaling skirmisher who must use (E) + (Q) combos to force trades and avoid giving Ornn a free scaling lane.
Avoid letting Ornn set up terrain for (E) knockups and brittle trades, as Yone lacks early lane pressure and must deny Ornn stable scaling.

Trading pattern

Stack (Q) to threaten knockup, then use (E) and second (Q) to gap close and snap back to avoid (E) knockup or (W) brittle trades.
Punish Ornn if he uses (E) away from terrain or wastes (R) without follow-up.
Avoid trades near (Q) pillar or when brittle is active to reduce damage taken.

Danger windows

Respect (E) knockup when near terrain and (W) brittle application as they enable strong follow-up damage.
Avoid fighting near (Q) pillar to reduce risk of knockup setups.
Be cautious post-level 6 as (R) can start long-range engages that are hard to escape without cooldowns.

Early game

Focus on farming safely until level 3 to unlock (Q)-(W)-(E) combo for reliable trades.
Use (E) + (Q) with planned exits to trade only when minions and spacing favor you.
Avoid extended duels before your first item spike to minimize Ornn's durable trades.

Power spikes

At level 3, use your full (Q)-(W)-(E) combo to force trades with planned exits.
After your first attack-speed item, pressure waves and trades more confidently while tracking Ornn's cooldowns.
Respect Ornn's level 6 (R) engage and his first tank item spike by playing for controlled trades and avoiding risky all-ins.

Win conditions

Use (E) + (Q) combos to force trades and deny Ornn safe scaling and stable farm.
Exploit Ornn's predictable engage paths and cooldowns to avoid his crowd control and punish when (E) is misused.
Snowball through early trades and item spikes to pressure side lanes and force Ornn out of comfort zones before he reaches full tank scaling.
