Wukong has the highest win rate among top laners

Cloud273·Oct 16, 2015·4 votes·1,010 views

In both normals and high elo (plat+) games. And it's been that way for awhile now. Funny how win rates in normals and high elo games are so similar. Broken champs are broken everywhere (regardless of where they're played). Wukong is the new Teemo of top lane. So stop crying about Riven, a perfectly balanced champ and let's talk about someone who's actually broken right now.

"Here's winrates that point out how he's broken."

Okay, tell us what makes him broken, because I never see Wukongs played in mid or bot lane, and I hardly see any in the jungle. He has a 4% pickrate, not high at all. This indicates his winrate is high because he gets picked into favorable match-ups by Wu mains.

Also note that his winrate has actually been slowly dropping since at least patch 5.15, so don't pretend like his winrate's been stead/climbing for the last few months.

Find something else to circlejerk about.

Low pick rate=/=played by only mains. He's played by mains just as much as Vayne is. People need to stop repeating that lie.

Then what exactly makes Wukong so overbearing and broken. I already asked once with no actual response, just numbers tossed out by the op about "consistent winrate" without any actual argument as to what exactly makes him so good.

Read Wolfless's post below you. That pretty much sums it up.

Probably going to have to nerf 1 of 3 things sooner or later.

AD ratios (Wu's got 'em like looooooooollll)
Mana costs (his are incredibly negligible)
Cooldowns (Probably ult.)

His mana cost are not negligible at all. Many Wukong players take flask due to how easy he can oom himself since you normally want to play aggro with him. Say what you want but at least unlike Riven, Wukong can go oom. And his kit is rather basic, a gap closer for damage + atk speed, his Q enchances his auto's and gives armor reduction. Then his decoy for jukes, and his ult is a knock up.

Riven has a 4 gap closers, a shield, and two forms of hard CC neither of which tied to her ultimate. I mean seriously only a few tanks have that luxury. And she can spam those abilities all she wants because she has no resource. She's also played in LCS while the Monkey hasn't been since since Season 4 and only in the jungle which got im nerfed :p

I'll agree Wukong's ult is on a rather short CD for and AoE CC ultimate. However Riven's is shorter and has having no freakin resource. More people play Riven and most are toxic so yea, the monkey continues to decoy under the radar.

1: dash in, easy engage. 2: Q auto atk reset with bonus damage, geting in an easy atk with another free, immediate, damage-boosted attack. 3: invis/clone and walk away practically unscathed, easy disengage.

lather, rinse, repeat for cheese lany bully.

also his ult is crap, spin to win stronger than garen that not only knocks up but INCREASES his movement speed.... idk how the heck someone's move speed goes up when spinning, even garen's move speed went DOWN when moving through minions while spinning

He'll oom himself pretty quickly if he constantly E > Q > W's though.

Riven is perfectly balanced? Right.

Riven doesn't have stealth, true damage, or %health damage (I know Wukong doesn't have all of these things, but these are the attributes people commonly complain about). She simply scales very well, and is annoying at best if she farms well, gets fed, etc.
