Fiora passive late game is ridiculous

Okay, so I'm playing a pretty long and good game as poppy, everything was cool and dandy till the game ending fight.

I was full build: Maw, Trinity, beserks, Frozen heart, deaths dance, and dead man's Fiora was full build: Hydra, Mercurial, youmuu's, Lord Dominik's, Black Cleaver, and Merc Treads.

So I'm not saying i was building full tank poppy or anything like that, but i did have around 3k or more hp and a good bit of armor and a bit of MR. Then i engage with my team in a 5v5 and walks up to me and ults me, then aa's one side and then dashes to the other side to get another passive hit.

Then I'm dead. I look in the death thingy (forgot what it's called) to look at the damage she did and she did OVER 1,000 TRUE DAMAGE IN TWO HITS. HOW IS THIS AN OKAY THING?

Okay so. Yes. I expect her to do that.

Kill her for the EXTREMELY glass build. Yes, that is the solution in a team fight situation. Like...Poppy would be the character that catches her with the cc delivered by your shield throw and then dash catch with the w.

Without a full replay of the situation I cannot outline how it could have been better, but if your team cannot threaten Fiora even in teamfight situations then YES, the game is lost.

At least Garen only does that ridiculous amount of damage IF you're the Villain AND you're super-low on health. And at least Vayne has to constantly be attacking you to get the true damage. With Fiora it's just "hey I ulted you and HERE IS DAMAGE". Sudden true damage ( Chogath , Olaf , Ahri ) is generally annoying, but at least it has counter-build (build health). You can't really counter-build %max health true damage, especially on Fiora. Vayne at least you can build FH/Randuin's against.

you cant really counter-build %max health true damage You can. Building squishy because the person dealing the damage will not focus you as it will take as long a time to kill you as it will to kill a tank

Except, y'know... People who deal %max health true damage tend to ALSO do a lot of OTHER damage, too.

I don't know man. People here are completely ok with the concept of taking 50% max health true damage in 1 second, it seems.

Ofc she would need compensation buffs if the ridiculous ratios were to be balanced, but I just find that stupid. %max health true damage is NOT the "I can duel everyone" niche. It's the "I rape tanks so bad it's ridiculous" niche. She's not "as good" against tanks, she's better. That gives her that tankmelting identity that has nothing to do with her duellist aspect. %health not true/flat true damage is enough for balanced power against tanks, %health true damage defines the identity around butchering tanks in particular. Which is not the concept of a duellist. It fits Vayne much more than it fits Fiora (hunting enormous devil beasts or whatever, so tanky sh*t)

Had a game as Shen My full build was item 3742 item 3068 item 3075 item 3143 item 3083 item 3047 Running grasp of the undying. Fiora still melted me. The enemy team was a full AD comp so i was justified in building that much armor and still unable to deal with her. In a usual game i would likely have a Visage/Veil and be even less able to fight her.

You simply cannot fight Fiora with her ult up unless you built some damage and can kill her during your own CC, which she would probably parry, stun, and kill you anyway. Why you would even try to fight Fiora as anything but a long range champion is beyond me.
