What are some tips for the Yone vs. Viktor matchup?

This is a boring and telegraphed lane. Early game, time your W to negate his Q damage while farming. When trading, get Q3, E at him, deal damage, and E back before his W is about to stun you. If he walks back up (since his W is his only defense), you can Ult back in to kill him. You can time your Ult right before his W stun to buffer it.

Yasuo	Favored	1,110	53%	-58	+310	Yasuo is strong early game and this matchup is very Yasuo-favored. Completely concede Level 1 and 2. You need to W in advance when he E's onto you to get the shield. Bone Plating is very important. You have two conditions to win a trade: you must pop his shield, AND you must be in your E. Be patient with your Qs and follow his E movement.

Viktor	Even	713	49%	+35	+308	This is a boring and telegraphed lane. Early game, time your W to negate his Q damage while farming. When trading, get Q3, E at him, deal damage, and E back before his W is about to stun you. If he walks back up (since his W is his only defense), you can Ult back in to kill him. You can time your Ult right before his W stun to buffer it.

Ornn	Easy	533	56%	+483	+2,134	Ornn's main damage is his W. You must save your E to dodge his W and the resulting Brittle. When trading, Q3 at him to bait his W, then E behind him so the W does not apply Brittle. If he uses Q and then E's into it, you can use E to dodge the knockup. You can time your Ult/Q3 when he Ults to buffer through the CC.

Aatrox	Easy	511	49%	-369	+230	Do not trade with him when he has his passive auto up. Use your e to dodge his q2 or q3 sweet spots or use it to get out of his w. Avoid fighting him when he is in his ult, since he might be able to outheal your damage.

Zed	Hard	510	48%	-565	-934	Zed is a major mental block, but the key is his W. As soon as he W's at you, abuse your E movement speed or W to dodge his Q damage. Continue running at him to force a good trade or force him to take his W back, then E back. This pattern ensures you always have control of the lane.

Kassadin	Easy	509	50%	+550	+91	This is a very easy lane, but annoying to kill. Freeze the wave pre-6 because he has no way of killing you. Post-6, do not E-Q3 as he will just Ult away. Instead, use Q3 to trade. If he Ults to dodge the Q3, then you use E to follow and trade. Use W on his Q to reduce poke.

Akali	Very Hard	465	47%	-596	-600	Very difficult matchup for Yone where you don't have agency. Only go for short trades, taking Grasp. Only Q3 if a minion is between you and her to block her E. Never use E until she uses her W (stealth), or you will get zero value from your E duration. When she Ults, instantly Ult where she dashes or Ult away to trade Ults/escape.
