How can I counter Fiora?

Fiora: The champion that does more true damage then any other champion in the game and is so annoying to play against. The last set of nerfs where all reverted because item 3076 was introduced into the game. Yet building it to even stand a chance of winning against her seems pointless since she also has a massive AS slow which is bigger then item 3110 and item 3143 combined, free crit and just way to much damage, sustain and mobility for most champs to deal with. Please only useful tips and not stuff like "ban her"

It's tough to build to counter her. It is best to just counter pick her, or ban her if you are 1st/2nd pick top. I play Renekton or Pantheon into her. Pantheon destroys her in lane with the Q pokes and his passive is very good when she tries to return poke with her Q or all in you with R and Q's. When playing Pantheon into her she will probably parry a Q because she does not want to take free damage over and over again. Then you W-basic-Q-E as Fiora has to either fight you (but her first basic or Q will get blocked, so as Panth you can walk away and win the trade) or run away while probably taking another Q while running. Pantheon can rack up kills vs Fiora in lane. Renekton is the same way. If he his her Q on you you can Q her and heal is back. You can chase her down and beat her ass with your double E's, so even if she slows you with parry you can catch her and stun her up. Renekton's ult can save him from sure death when Fiora all-ins him. His ult can turn the fight around quickly with a quick R Q W (R heals, Q heals, W is a triple basic with stun) Both of these champions do not require you to build differently from their normal builds, so once out of lane it won't be different. Also, since Fiora likes splitting late game because 'no champ can 1v1 Frioa late' Renekton with Tiamat or Hydra hopefully by then can insta-clear waves. Apparently and Gnar are good counters as well, but i do not play those two champs often.

Hope this helps :) GLHF

Thanks. Like I wrote what messes me up is her Attack Speed slow on W. Especially early game a basic attack based champion with 0.4 AS is just terrible. I got 2 true damage late game monsters on my ban list right now, MasterYi (teams tend to not be able to play vs him and he destroy tanks late game) and Fiora cause I cant really play against her. Once again thanks for the tips, gonne try Renekton against her [slayer-jinx-catface]

Once you learn how to combo and animation cancel with Renek he is great! Renek counters Jax, Riven, Gnar, Xin, and Nasus as well, so it is good to learn him because these champs are played a good % of the time.

I played him a lot at the start of the season so shouldnt be to hard to pick him up again.

Pick someone she can't really react to with her W. People either with spread-out or fast-hitting damage, and untelegraphed CC.

Singed is amazing into her, honestly.

Singed and Fiora are strong against eachother. If you look at all the different "counter" sites they're different. Singed has a high winrate against Fiora, but in lane Fiora wins is what the sites say.
