Who lanes well against Fiora?

Simple Moon·Feb 22, 2016·2 votes·739 views

I play Fiora quite a bit. She is very powerful and tanky at the same time. Which is what most people have a problem with. But I'm wondering who lanes well against her? Anytime she is picked for the enemy team I can't help but scratch my head and know that I'm in for a rough lane. So if anyone knows of some good counter match ups or someone who can at least "duel" with her I would like to know.

There's a few options but there all soft counters and skill matchups.

Her most direct counter is Malphite.

Renekton and Darius do well but if you get outplayed, you'll start to lose and you will get outscaled

Pantheon beats her but he beats everyone

is almost unwinnable for Fiora, but you better be good at snowballing games. Everything outscales Pantheon.

That moment when you're a super fed Pantheon (mid vs Katarina , because you happen to be evil) who has succesfully been pushing side lanes and taking towers that forgets for a moment that the jungler hasn't been making good calls and follows his attack ping into a bush- that has the entire enemy team in it.

Then your nexus explodes. True story.

But yeah, unless the Pantheon sucks hard, or the Fiora is really, really good; Panth is gonna win that lane.

Pantheon does really well, so does Malphite

Poppy, Quinn, Lissandra, Pantheon. I recommend trying to learn any of those.

The only time I've had a strong lane against her was during a for fun game with my friends. I went Taric top lane and somehow did really well against Fiora.

She scaled harder into the late-mid and late game, but even she said she was surprised at how the lane phase went for her. It was likely just a one off fluke, as I really never tried it again, and I don't really see her played much anyway, but I felt it was worth mentioning.

Taric top is quite effective in lane against most AD tops (although Garen seems to consistently walk away from extended trades with a tiny sliver of health left) and can survive long enough against a few AP tops to get to his "I can walk up to any squishy and cc/burst them to death" stage.

I've 1v1'd a fed Yasuo to death as Taric and left with 80% of my health bar intact. And he ulted me too. 27:54 (I was support, but I used my top lane runes, masteries, and (aside from my item 2303 ) item build

Edit: Then again, it seems he bought a item 3078 so, it's probably not as impressive as it seemed at the time.

I have played Maokai vs her and done well. Let her push you in and when she trys and dashes to you to proc a vital use your q to knock her back and she will not do any damage or heal. If she aa you under tower just root her and blow her up.

[edit] if you get to build item 3068 and or a item 3110 then with your ult she will not be able to solo kill

Quinn should win lane as long as you don't let her parry stun you with your E, harass hard go for kills when she wastes parry, try to get her to waste it on your Q. Lulu farm/harass and only go for kill if you poke her super low, team fights can shut her down Renekton Can out bully her with his sustain & dmg and burst of health with ult. Poppy W just generally makes her work well vs her especially her ult. Tryndamere His R makes fiora's R sad.
