Coming back to League after a few years.. WTF happened to Fiora?

Town Park Radio·May 18, 2017·1 votes·370 views

I suppose I can deal with the fact that a trained fencer now prances around like a ninny, but what is the point of her ultimate? I honestly cannot puzzle out what "reveals weak points, and if they are struck" blah blah blah means, exactly. As far as I can tell I'm supposed to fire off the ult when doing autoattacks and hope the enemy is so stupid they don;t instantly retreat? Please help me understand.

It's nice to see they dropped the concept of "Summoners" from the lore. That was pretty stupid. Nobody would submit to that.

Don't start at the front. Ult from the side of them and use the movement speed you get plus your q to get to their far side. Use your e slow and the movement speed buff to hit the third. Chase them down to get the last one in front and hopefully killing them with the crit from e.

It means they gave sustain and teamfight utility to a true damage dualist/diver.

So, in short, yes I AM supposed to hope they don't instantly retreat?

You get movement speed and you have amazing chase potrntial with Q(your Q tries to hit vital always). Slow on W and E and every time you hit vital u get burst of movement speed. Its actually almost impossible to run away from Fiora unless you are Sion, Olaf or Yi.

Okay that makes sense. The flavor text for her ult now borders on useless.

Because you remember Fiora's old ult? It had teamfight utility. She divided the strikes amongst whoever was in the fight. It seems like this rebuild is about some nebulous "duelist" concept rather than making her a viable pick.

Yea.... i mean... thats her entire design concept. being a fencer (duelist) and all.

Also this update made her a monster. Its absurd. Its infinitely stronger than pre update.

Passive- 2% (+ 4.5% per 100 bonus AD) of target's maximum health as bonus true damage, heal Fiora for 30 - 115 (based on level) and grant her 20 / 30 / 40 / 50% bonus movement speed that decays over 1.75 seconds. (this shit is crazy)

Q- a short ranged dash that can proc her passive. Also its reduced CD if it hits something

W- Short term invulnerability that turns any cc effect that hits her into a stun on the first enemy in the aoe.

E- Guaranteed Crit with a slow. This ability is amazing.

R- applies her Passive

New Fiora is based around instantly raping 1 champion. And also fiora gives 0 fucks about how tanky you are thanks to her %MaxHP True Damage. If you instantly light up the tank with this new ult in a fight you can melt them almost instantly.

Also can't say I'm a fan of this reddit thing they have going here. What was wrong with the old forums?
