The most reliable way to land Yone's ultimate, Fate Sealed, in League of Legends: Wild Rift is to buffer it directly during the airborne knockup from Mortal Steel (Skill 1). Firing Fate Sealed without prior crowd control gives alert enemies time to react, dodge, or burn Flash during its cast windup.
Hitbox and Displacement Mechanics
Fate Sealed strikes along a narrow rectangular corridor. It marks every enemy champion in the path, teleports Yone behind the furthest champion struck, and pulls all hit targets toward his landing point.
Keep these displacement rules in mind before aiming:
- Terrain Traversing: Fate Sealed dashes Yone across walls and obstacles as long as the corridor clears the map geometry.
- Crowd Control Priority: The strike knocks up enemies regardless of their current action, interrupting channeled spells, dashes, and abilities.
- Repositioning Allies and Enemies: Because Yone always lands behind the last champion hit, aiming through retreating targets pulls them backward into your team while placing Yone directly along their escape route.
Guaranteed Setup: Chaining Mortal Steel
Buffering Fate Sealed immediately after confirming your third Mortal Steel cast eliminates the target's reaction window, preventing them from using Stasis, Flash, or mobility spells before the strike connects.
- Stack Gathering Storm: Strike minions, jungle monsters, or champions twice with Mortal Steel to ready the third-cast whirlwind dash before committing to a fight.
- Confirm the Whirlwind Knockup: Dash through your target with the third cast of Mortal Steel to launch them airborne.
- Buffer Fate Sealed Instantly: Cast Fate Sealed the moment the whirlwind hits. The airborne duration locks the target long enough for the ultimate's windup to complete cleanly.
If your third Mortal Steel cast misses, hold Fate Sealed unless the target is already pinned down by allied crowd control or cornered against terrain.
Aiming Against Mobile Targets and Flash
When casting Fate Sealed without an airborne setup, predict where the enemy must move rather than targeting where they currently stand.
| Scenario | Expected Enemy Movement | Recommended Ultimate Placement |
|---|---|---|
| Retreating to Turret | Flashing straight back toward safety | Target slightly behind the champion toward their turret line to catch the Flash arrival point. |
| Open Lane Duel | Sidestepping laterally toward river or brush | Cast straight down their primary retreat lane so lateral steps cannot clear the hitbox in time. |
| Near Obstacles | Flashing over a jungle or lane wall | Align the corridor along the wall edge to cover both the standard path and the landing zone over the wall. |
To make raw casts easier, walk up with basic attacks and Spirit Cleave (Skill 2) first. Forcing defensive mobility spells early allows you to cast Fate Sealed with minimal risk.
Anchoring with Soul Unbound for Safe Engages
Cast Soul Unbound (Skill 3) before launching an ultimate engage. Soul Unbound leaves your physical body behind, grants ramping movement speed, and stores a portion of the damage you deal.
Using this ability first provides two key advantages:
- Extended Threat Range: You can initiate from outside normal vision range without permanently committing your champion's positioning.
- Guaranteed Disengage: If Fate Sealed misses or the enemy counter-engages, recast Soul Unbound immediately to snap back to your initial anchor and escape incoming burst damage.
Teamfight Chokepoints and Follow-Up
In teamfights around Dragon and Baron pits, save Fate Sealed to strike down narrow river paths or jungle corridors. Wait for primary enemy crowd-control spells to clear, or allow your frontline champions to initiate first. Firing Fate Sealed as a secondary engage catches multiple grouped targets, pulls squishy backline carries into melee range, and sets up easy area-of-effect follow-up damage for your team.

Good guide for League of Legends: Wild Rift players. The strategy part was useful.
Nice guide. I am checking the other League of Legends: Wild Rift articles next.
