Yone, the Unforgotten, is a fighter and assassin champion that is demanding to master. Across our 2110 analysed ranked games, Yone is mostly played in Mid (52% of its games), and more rarely in Top (44%), with a 49.8% win rate in that role: tier C among Mid champions (#33 of 42, ranked by win rate). Yone's damage is mostly physical (72%): armor is the best defensive answer against this champion. 13% of that damage is true damage and therefore ignores resistances. Win rate varies with game length: 53.5% in long games (over 35 min, 129 games) versus 47.7% in short games (under 25 min).
Averages measured over 1095 Mid games played with Yone, from our ranked Solo/Duo data collection.
Yone is a fighter-assassin who alternates physical and magic hits: one attack out of two deals magic damage, which makes his damage hard to counter with a single type of resistance. He wins games by stacking Mortal Steel to knock enemies into the air, then closing the fight with Fate Sealed, which gathers the enemies it hits. Soul Unbound is the key to his kit: part of the damage dealt as a spirit is repeated when he returns to his body.

When: You want to trade without spending Soul Unbound.
Two Mortal Steels close together trigger the dash and the knock-up; slip an attack in between to benefit from his passive, then Spirit Cleave for the shield.

When: An enemy is in range and you want to maximize the repeated damage.
Leave your body with Soul Unbound, deal as much damage as possible while you are a spirit, then recast it: part of that damage is repeated. The combo has to fit within its limited duration, so start it in range.

When: Several enemies are lined up.
Knock a target up with the tornado, then Fate Sealed teleports you behind the last champion hit on the line and pulls every enemy hit toward you. Finish with Mortal Steel and Spirit Cleave to take advantage of the clumping.
Chain basic attacks and Mortal Steel to stack the Storm Surge effect; two stacks let you dash and knock the target up. Spirit Cleave gives you a shield proportional to the number of champions hit: save it for a trade, not for minions.
