How to beat Wukong

Common role: Top / Jungle

A bruiser who leaves a decoy clone and knocks up your whole team with a spin ult.

What makes Wukong dangerous

Wukong dashes in with armor shred, becomes briefly invisible leaving a decoy clone (W), and his ultimate is a spinning knock-up that hits everyone around him — a strong teamfight engage. He deceives with the clone to dodge your abilities and re-engage, snowballing off picks.

How to play against Wukong

• 1Watch for his W clone — he goes invisible and leaves a decoy. Don't dump your combo on the clone; wait to see the real Wukong.
• 2Respect his ult spin (R) — it knocks up everyone around him. Don't clump when he can flash-ult into your team.
• 3Bait his W to dodge your engage, then commit when it's on cooldown — that's his main escape/deception tool.
• 4His Q shreds armor — mix damage or bring magic. Kite him after he uses his E dash.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓W clone is baitable — don't waste combo on the decoy.
• ✓Ult spin needs grouped enemies — spread out.
• ✓Kiteable after his E dash.
• ✓Squishy-ish bruiser; hard CC punishes his engage.
