Understanding how to play against this popular champion becomes essential for consistent Vladimir performance in the current patch.

How to Beat Yone as Vladimir (Mid)

The Vladimir 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 Vladimir deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Yone deals mainly physical damage (71.59%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Yone, ranking 34th (versus 40th for Vladimir) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (1.7 versus 2.2) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Vladimir Mid versus Yone Mid matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Vladimir 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.

Vladimir tips:

  • Transfusion instantly deals damage to the enemy before healing Vladimir, making it one of the best last hitting tools in the game.
  • Cast Hemoplague where it will afflict the most units.
  • Sanguine Pool pops incoming missiles, so it can be used to dodge disables.
