Champion Portrait of Yone
Yone
Favored
33951%+161+171You can beat Yone at Level 2. Try not to get hit by his W, as the shield and damage will skew the trade. Yone beats Yasuo 1v1 mid-to-late game because he deals more damage and your W is useless in the duel. Try to Flash out or dodge his R, as it's relatively slow and telegraphed.

Champion Portrait of Sylas
Sylas
Easy
32254%+322+1121Sylas outsustains you early. Focus on W-ing his E during trades. You can W the stealing part of his R to prevent him from taking your Ultimate. Force him into longer trades by holding the wave on your side.
Champion Portrait of Akali
Akali
Easy
32049%-15+248This lane is easier top because the long lane prevents her from hiding in her W near the tower. Never fight when her W (Shroud) is up; look to trade aggressively in that 20-second downtime. W blocks her Q or E. Her E is massive single-target damage, so dodging or W-ing it is super important. Post-6, R her when her W is on cooldown to force her R, as her Ult is way more vital to her all-in than yours.
Champion Portrait of Zed
Zed
Easy
31457%-76+61This matchup is tricky. **Always take Exhaust.**Play Aggressive level 1-2. Save W until he throws out his W so you can dodge at least one shuriken. Abuse him when his W is down (massive 22s CD early). After he Ults, wait half a second, dash away, and then Exhaust to block both the initial damage and the Ult pop, rendering his R useless. If Zed ever ults you mid tornado, throw your tornado behind you to guarantee it lands
Champion Portrait of Vladimir
Vladimir
Hard
27149%-88-512Do not go near him when his Empowered Q is up (red bar). Windwall his E while he's charging it. When E-ing with Q3, hold the Q3 to bait out his W (Pool), then land the tornado when he emerges to secure the all-in.

Syndra
Favored
25750%+109-234Wait until 3 to W her E. Save W for her R post-6. If you can W her E after closing the gap, it is a guaranteed winning trade or solo kill. Qs are easy to dodge with E. As long as you aren't eating poke for free, you are favored
Champion Portrait of Malzahar
Malzahar
Hard
25644%+249-216A very easy lane; he feeds you gold with his W minions. Kill his Ws to prevent his E from spreading. Don't E onto him until you pop his passive shield. You **must get QSS** after Tier 2 boots to deal with his R.
