Statistical Matchup Analysis

Current meta showdown: Yone (4.4% pick rate, 14th most popular out of 63 Top champions) versus Gangplank (4.1%, 15th place). These two top lane titans clash constantly, making matchup mastery a decisive factor in your climb. Silver lining: While Yone's 47.5% overall win rate (55th among Top) struggles in the current meta, this matchup against Gangplank offers a bright spot for dedicated players. Amplify your advantage: The Lethal Tempo + Absorb Life rune setup achieves 50.3% win rate (98.7% popularity), while the core build Blade of The Ruined King > Immortal Shieldbow > Infinity Edge with Berserker's Greaves (60.0% win rate) lets you snowball advantages into guaranteed victories by 15 minutes.

Lane dominance: Yone not only wins the matchup but crushes CS (6.78/min vs 6.28 for Gangplank). This 0.50 CS/min advantage generates significant gold leads that compound your already favorable position. Quality over quantity: Yone wins through smart play rather than raw damage - despite lower DPS (875 vs 936/min), the 54.6% win rate shows superior utility, positioning, and team fight impact. Intriguing anomaly: Yone wins the matchup (54.6%) despite a lower KDA (1.50 vs 2.10). This suggests you win through macro influence and clutch plays in key moments rather than consistent individual performance.

How to Beat Gangplank as Yone (Top)

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

Except for rare builds, Yone deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Gangplank has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.

An important advantage of Yone is higher farming statistics (ranked 23rd among role champions) (versus 38th for Gangplank), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.1 versus 1.5) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

Key aspects of the Yone Top versus Gangplank Top matchup

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