How to Beat Yone as Akali (Mid)

The Akali versus Yone matchup in the mid lane is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.

The magic damage that Akali deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Yone has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.

Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Yone, ranking 4th (versus 55th for Akali) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (1.6 versus 2.3) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Akali Mid versus Yone Mid matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Akali player to maintain constant pressure on Yone, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.

Akali tips:

  • Akali excels at killing fragile champions. Let your team initiate and then strike at the people in the back.
  • Twilight Shroud offers safety in even the most dangerous situations. Use that time to save up energy for a quick strike later.
