How to beat Fiora

Common role: Top

A dueling machine who parries your key spell and true-damages tanks to death.

What makes Fiora dangerous

Fiora's passive marks four vitals around your body that she dashes to for true damage and healing; her ultimate spawns them on demand for a burst-and-heal execute. Her W parries and stuns during any incoming CC or damage window. She is the premier 1v1 duelist and shreds any single target regardless of armor.

How to play against Fiora

• 1Bait her W parry before you commit CC or your big ability — if she parries it, she stuns you and wins the trade. Wait out her W (long cooldown), then engage.
• 2Deny her vitals: she must dash to the marks around your body. Fight with your back to a wall so she can't reach the vitals behind you.
• 3Her true damage ignores armor — don't try to out-tank her 1v1. Kite her, peel her off your carry, or bring her into a group fight where she can't isolate.
• 4Answer her split-push with numbers, not a solo duel — she wins almost every 1v1 in a side lane.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓Squishy — burst and hard CC (chained past her W) delete her.
• ✓W parry is on a long cooldown; punish when it's down.
• ✓Weak if she can't reach your vitals (fight near walls).
• ✓Struggles against ranged pokes and disengage comps.

Abilities & how to counter them

What each of Fiora's abilities does — and how to play around it.

  次の2回の攻撃速度が増加し、追加効果が付与される。最初の攻撃は対象にスロウ効果を付与し、次の攻撃はクリティカルとなる。

  Strong: spawns all four vitals for a burst-and-heal execute. Weak: still needs to hit them — kite her or bring her into a group where she can't isolate.

Itemization

Fiora deals AD plus percent-health true damage, so armor alone won't save you — kite her, chain CC past her W parry, and use Grievous Wounds against her healing. Ranged champions should abuse her before item spikes.
