"Pretty much no one can beat Fiora in 1v1"

For non-duelists: Wow it's like if you put a duelist against a non-duelist, the duelist wins.

For duelists that are extremely old and outdated (read: basically every single one of them except Fiora and a few): Wow it's almost like ancient champions meant for past metas won't fit in the new meta.

To use analogies, would you make an archer fight a swordsman in melee range and then wonder why the swordsman won?

Or would you put a person who only has a slingshot against someone with a machine gun?

Same thing.

It's almost like if you're not good at 1v1s, you shouldn't try to 1v1 said duelist who's supposed to be amazing at them. Gee because you know, who cares that you have your own strengths such as teamfighting which the duelist won't be good at.

And if other champions can't match because they're too outdated, then update or rework them like Galio was (which by the way, was handled amazingly) so they can actually become relevant again.

Honestly alot of duelist champions including fiora arent particularly good at "trading" they typically have a kit that includes many things, but isnt extremely good at all of them.

For fiora she has: mobility, moderate burst, upper mid dps, a counter, but no sustain outside of start items.

Any high burst moderate cd champion who has innate sustain can engage in a series of trades and wittle her down in just a few minutes assuming they play around riposte, its just a matter of being patient and not fighting her outright, just burst>Back up>sustain x4-8 then go in for the kill

Why even have this conversation. If she dominates pro play she will get nerfed. End of story. And they already said they are looking to tone her down.

It doesn't matter what you think or how she plays in lower elos or soloq

Leave this dead horse alone.

Question : is it a good idea, in a game where there are footman with normal swords, some horsemen and some archers, to release a horseman with a light machine gun and also in heavy armor but the horse still goes as fast as a normal horse carrying a light person?
