Yorick vs Yone

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Yorick is a scaling splitpusher who must prepare graves and keep Maiden alive to pressure towers and force answers.
Maintain medium lane pressure to deny Yone from safely scaling and avoid giving him easy (E) + (Q) combos.
This is a scale vs scale matchup where Yorick aims to out-splitpush and force side pressure over direct fights.

Trading pattern

Initiate trades after marking Yone with (E) and having graves ready to maximize ghouls' damage.
Use (W) to trap Yone only when he cannot easily dash or attack out, punishing his low mobility windows.
Avoid trades when Maiden is dead or (E) misses, as Yorick loses pressure and ghouls' threat.

Danger windows

Beware of (E) knockup and stun as his main threat window; avoid overextending when it is available.
Respect Yone's third (Q) knockup and (R) displacement which can turn fights instantly.
Yorick is vulnerable without graves or Maiden; avoid engaging during these low-threat windows when Yone can punish.

Early game

Focus on setting graves before engaging to maximize ghouls' pressure and healing from (Q).
Avoid fighting without graves or Maiden as Yorick's early agency and lane pressure are low.
Respect Yone's level 3 unlock of (Q)-(W)-(E) combos by playing around his cooldowns and spacing.

Power spikes

At level 6, summon Maiden (R) to sharply increase side-lane pressure and duel potential; protect her to force tower damage.
When graves are prepared and (E) marks Yone, use ghouls to pressure and punish his positioning.
Respect Yone's level 3 (Q)-(W)-(E) combo and his first attack speed item timing that improve his trade reliability.

Win conditions

Win by setting up graves and landing (E) to send ghouls, then trap Yone with (W) to force tower damage with Maiden.
Deny Yone's scaling by maintaining medium lane pressure and forcing him to respond to side-lane threats.
Reach late game with Maiden alive and a strong splitpush presence to overwhelm Yone and his team.
