Yone vs Talon

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Yone is a scaling melee skirmisher who uses E + Q combo to force trades with a planned exit.
Talon applies medium lane pressure and wants to push for roams, so Yone must deny Talon easy roam windows by controlling wave and trading efficiently.

Trading pattern

Stack Q, use E and second Q to gap close, then snap back with E to avoid Talon's retaliation.
Respect Talon W slow and passive bleed damage; avoid prolonged trades.
Punish Talon cooldowns on Talon Q dash and Talon E terrain mobility to limit his roam potential.

Danger windows

Talon's level 6 with Talon R stealth burst can turn fights instantly; avoid all-ins without your R ready.
When Talon uses Talon E to reposition or roam, Yone can punish his absence by pushing and taking plates.
Missing key Yone Q knockup or R displacement leaves you vulnerable to Talon counterplay.

Early game

Avoid extended trades before level 3 when Yone unlocks full Q-W-E combo and shield.
Use E + Q to engage short trades and snap back to safety before Talon can punish.
Punish Talon when he uses Talon Q dash aggressively, as he becomes vulnerable after.

Power spikes

Yone's level 3 unlocks full Q-W-E trade combo with shield, increasing trade safety.
Yone's first back with attack speed item powers up trades and dueling.
Talon's level 2 with Talon Q and W pressure and level 6 Talon R burst and stealth are spikes to respect.

Win conditions

Use E + Q combo to force trades and exit safely, denying Talon's roam opportunities.
Punish Talon when he uses Talon Q dash or Talon E poorly to gain lane control.
Scale through safe farming and hitting power spikes to outduel Talon in mid to late game.

Tip: For Yone vs Talon, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
