Wukongs ult is an overlooked issue
His ult needs a bit of a rework. He builds Black cleaver and the rest tank, then proceeds to do whatever he wants and can 100-0 almost anyone within reason. His ult does way too much damage. Lets take a quick peak at how much damage his cult does.
Rank 1-3 respectively: 20/110/200
Okay, early game is pretty bad, that's like 250 damage with whatever items you have early game. But then rank two hits at level 11.
110 damage per second, thats 440 damage plus whatever damage Wu has built, if thats two damage items, that damage goes up to beyond 700-800. But wait, theres rank 3.
200 damage per second, with items puts this around 1200~ damage by itself. Now, I don't have that much of an issue with his damage, I mean, I do, but the main issue is how he dishes it out.
Lets analyze the regular Wukong combo.
Go invisible, E, Q, R.
The E Q are almost instantaneous, there is barely any counter play allowed with those two abilities, now, with black cleaver and armor reduction of his Q, you basically have no armor because of the shred he pushes out. This leads to his cult doing insane damage without any defense to buffer it. In Wukongs Ult description, it says that "Enemies affected by Cyclone for the first time are briefly knocked up." Briefly? More like 1.5 seconds, a Malphite ult is not brief, that's huge.
And theres no way you're getting away from his if you flash, he gets up to 40% bonus movement speed during the channeling and his E will be up around that time again anyway to bounce to you again and combo for another free 500 damage.
For any of you saying just buy a QSS, yeah, QSS works early game when he does no damage, but mid/late game, QSS only prolongs your death, which is good, but there is still almost no counter play to a Wukong with a brain.
That's just my opinion, I think he needs a bit of balancing, or change his ult to bonus AD so he has to be a glass cannon late game to do damage instead of building 2 damage items and the rest tank and still get 110% scaling on his ult.


?
(Malz ult is out of his range right?)

is strong but it is not in every situation.



if he uses his decoy to come in and ult your shield will block the knock up so have time to react. also he gets more armor and mr the more champs he is around. making him tanker if he goes in vs a group instead of a solo.
If jungling,
(or other variants with warrior),
, but you can opt for tank boots if you want
