How does Fiora counter Wukong?
I picked Fiora to counter who I assumed was their solo top, then they picked Wukong and I lost horribly, he has easy-mode harass that does a lot of damage, then he can just decoy whenever I try to fight back.
Then I brought it up that it was impossible to win the lane, and they just claimed that Wukong is weak to Fiora, but I don't see how.
I played against my friend in a 1v1 Fiora vs. Wukong, we're both about evenly matched in skill too. I lost by a small margin, mainly because I had to wait for him to ult before I could use mine, or he'd just use his decoy to escape. So regardless of how it came down I was always the first one to low HP, and auto attacking (Fiora's strength) seems futile against Wu.
fiora is a champ that snowballs stupidly hard. if you watch some of the games i play with zah and whoever else plays its really easy (if you're jungling or solo top) to go from wrecking people in 1 game to being utter trash the next. iono how you allot your abilities but I max out the W first followed by the E.
the main thing with fiora that makes her beastly is being able to parry any basic attack and her ult.
also a lot of it requires perfect timing so you don't blow your parry too early or too late. But usually fiora can win solo top against most solo top champs except against WW, malphite and jax.
also the double gap closer she has with her Q can be devastating against champs that try to flash or ghost away.
edit:
also here's a website that I use sometimes to help decide what to counterpick or what to play as. it's pretty useful and the comments they have help.

I should have taken Mordekaiser. Huehuehue
@Volkom I used championselect to determine that Fiora was the right solo top to pick. :x

then yeah, if the person is good enough they can destroy fiora. she's not that hard to beat, and she's countered really easily but yeah if you're good with her you can wipe the floor with anyone. and if your opponent knows what they're doing, you're going to have a really bad day

I think I only do well with her when I'm jungling because I don't know how to handle being harassed as a melee...
I don't do it much because she is very easily counter-jungled.

she destroys nearly everyone in the jungle? she's a great duelist lol and once parry is maxed out you basically 2 shot almost everything in the jungle

I have found Jarvan to be an amazing solo top. I have been able to hold my own against virtually any lane opponent with him. Only downfall is how easy it is to be mana starved. Philo stone helps, but still pretty easy to drain your mana pull (especially if harassing which he is great at).
Should give him a try if looking for another solo top option.

Need more free champs. Kind of sick of the current rotation. Mundo was fun, but I have a real hard time playing a tank. Is there something I should be prioritizing as a tank? Usually I start with Merc treads, and depending on the tank/enemy damage potential, I lean toward one direction or the other. As a strict tank, I usually get shut-down early and then have a hard time catching up.
By Rhaokin 2012-05-07 12:34:24
Despite absolutely loathing veigar because of his AoE stun, he almost seems like the perfect champ for me. His passive grants the mana sustain I desire for my playstyle, and he's incredibly bursty against any AP champ.
I am going to try him out.

Add me Louie. Solrokr. Also, know that by adding someone who is currently not online, a glitch with chat can occur where one can't respond to the other except in chat rooms. A quick fix is removing and re-adding while they're online.

I think this week is mind-torture week with Fiddlesticks, Nidalee, and Singed in the rotation.
I sort of want to buy Nasus to try out for solo top. Is he a good competitive pick?

Nasus is a massive carry killer. Just farm Q and you can win games.
Had a match just the other day where I got my Q up to about 1200ish damage. Brand wasn't a threat anymore :D

As far as Rank goes, I wouldnt pick nasus right away until you see the rest of the team comp. Kennen/Teemo/Vlad that can shut down a lot of tops will shut down Nasus.
By Rhaokin 2012-05-07 15:11:46
Speak of the devil. This Nasus started out 0/2 (against Olaf top, no surprise) and Fiora harassed him about it all game... and I started out rough too because of Vladimir's stupid deceptive ult...
He came back HARD, he got a pentakill even...
PS - Every time I pick Ahri in ranked and say "Inb4 Badimir mid" they pick Badimir. It's not even a surprise anymore. I need to learn to play against him better, but occasionally I'll take a dump all over him.

You are seriously over-estimating his mana regen... you won't notice anything until lvl 13. In the lane phase his mana regen passive is not gonna help you.

I punk him with Mord usually, but their Vlad was very last pick D:

It's only slightly less powerful than the passive on chalice of harmony, and when I build that I can spam all day even with Lux. I forgot that's doing it wrong though.
It went well. :O

Youre doing it wrong. Always make a rabadons first or second.

Build what suits your needs Rhao. If that extra MP sustains you for longer periods of time, use it. Just know that there may be an inefficiency somewhere in your play-style. If you remedy that, you may not need chalice down the line, or may be able to post-pone the need for that MP regen until you can buy a bigger item, one that has MP regen on it, as well as AP and other statistics.

Build full AP and get two-shotted by other Veigar, will do.

That doesn't matter... your Q alone gives you AP, as does .. you are veigar... you are gonna acquire a ***ton of AP. His ult does a ***ton of dmg regardless how much AP you have *As in him ulting you*. I've gibbed Tanks who have MR with my ult, stun, dark matter cause the amount of AP I have. That isn't a valid reason to not build a proper AP. If anything just build items that give MR and HP along with AP if you are that scared of getting one shot by another veigar. Veigar is my bread and butter AP champ. I can play him support bot, I can play him top solo. I love him mid. Though I wouldn't say anything was technically wrong with your build. Other than having both abyssal and void together.
Also again veigar's passive isn't strong and won't do ***for you at low lvls. Once you hit around lvl 13.

Has anyone here at least given this game a try or plays it? I enjoy it a lot for what it's worth. It's a MOBA-style game and it's completely FREE unless you want to buy skins(merely aesthetic) for champions. All the champions are well-balanced and can be purchased with Influence Points earned from matches.
