Yamato vs Dynamo

Your game plan as Yamato

A blade who commits fully — and refreshes everything when she does.

How to beat Dynamo

The fight-warper. Dynamo’s whole game is the one Singularity that wins the match.

• 01Never group tight when Dynamo is missing from the map.
• 02Rejuvenating Aurora is a channel, so interrupt it.
• 03Have one hero hold a stun for Dynamo after he teleports in.

1. 01Dynamo wins the farm by ~14.5 last hits per match. Prioritise safe last hits and denies over trades, and let your lane partner zone.
2. 02Dynamo has sustain (Rejuvenating Aurora). Short, sharp trades beat long ones — buy anti-heal early.

• 2
  Early point

  Put an early point into Flying Slash: Dynamo can drag you out of position, so keep a way back.

• 1
  Max first

  Max Power Slash before Flying Slash: Dynamo heals through slow damage (Rejuvenating Aurora), so burst them instead.

• 2
  Hold

  Hold Flying Slash for Singularity — use it the moment Dynamo commits, not before.

• Yamato averages 0.94 kills per death against Dynamo.
• Yamato finishes 1.2k souls behind Dynamo on average — play for teamfights and scaling rather than lane kills.
• Track Singularity (250s cooldown). The window right after Dynamo uses it is your best time to fight.
