     Passive: Way of the Hunter​

     • Effect:
       • Yone’s critical strike chance is doubled, but his critical strikes deal 90% damage instead of the standard 200%.
       • Every second attack deals magic damage instead of physical, scaling with both his attack damage and ability power.
     • Why it’s strong:
       The dual-scaling damage makes Yone effective against enemies stacking armor, and the increased crit chance allows him to power-spike earlier with items like Infinity Edge.

     Q: Mortal Steel​

     • Active: Yone thrusts his sword forward, dealing physical damage to all enemies in a line.
     • Second Cast: After landing a first cast, Yone can cast it again for another thrust.
     • Third Cast: If both previous casts hit, Yone dashes forward, unleashing a whirlwind that knocks up enemies in its path.
     • Notes:
       • Functions like a melee-range poke tool and engage ability.
       • Combos well with his other abilities for crowd control and mobility.

     W: Spirit Cleave​

     • Active: Yone cleaves in a wide arc, dealing damage based on the target's maximum health and gaining a shield if he hits an enemy.
     • Shield Strength: Scales based on the number of enemies struck.
     • Why it’s useful:
       Great for surviving team fights and trading in lane. The ability's percentage damage makes it effective against tanks.

     E: Soul Unbound​

     • Active: Yone enters a spectral form for 5 seconds, leaving his physical body behind and gaining increased movement speed.
       • During this time, Yone can attack and use abilities as usual.
       • When the ability ends, or if reactivated, Yone snaps back to his body, dealing a portion of the damage he dealt during his spectral form as true damage.
     • Key Mechanics:
       • Allows Yone to poke enemies or dive in aggressively while being able to retreat safely.
       • True damage finish is potent for bursting squishy targets.
   •

     R: Fate Sealed​

     • Active: Yone dashes forward a long distance, pulling all enemies in his path to his final position and dealing damage.
       • Enemies hit are briefly knocked up, making this a great follow-up to the third Q knock-up or other crowd control.
     • Why it’s impactful:
       • Perfect for initiating or following up on fights.
       • Combines crowd control and burst damage, creating devastating team-fight potential.

     Combo Tips​

     1. Basic Engage:
        • E > Q (3rd) > R: Use Soul Unbound for a safe engage, land the knock-up from your Q3, then chain with your R for maximum damage and control.
     2. Poke and Retreat:
        • E > W > Q > Snapback: Dive in with Soul Unbound, cleave, poke with Mortal Steel, then return safely to your body.
     3. All-In:
        • Q3 > Flash > R > Auto + W: Flash to reposition your Q3 knock-up into the enemy team, then use R to pull everyone in for massive follow-up damage.
