Now I understand why people hate Fiora

I've surfed these boards every day seeing several "Nerf Fiora!" "Fuck Fiora" threads, I thought people were overreacting like when everyone said that Skarner wouldn't be that good. Until I finally had the pleasure of laning against her myself.

I'm playing Gnar, fun champion to play somewhat exploitable if you know what you're doing (engaging on him immediately after he goes back to mini Gnar) and their top and mid lane swap so for the first 7 or so minutes I'm facing Lissandra. It was pretty easy, rushed a hex drinker got a kill thanks to my jungler and it all seemed as if it was going well. Immediately, as i come back to lane it's Fiora. I'm like "Alright, I can do this, I'm going to kite her out and everything is gonna be fine. If I go Mega, i'll outdamage her right?".

5 words: Percentage Maximum Health True Damage...

I'm fine with it on Vayne to some extent, although she's almost as ridiculous. Who was the guy who said it would be a great Idea if her true damage scales with AD? She had a Hydra a Black Cleaver and a Infinity Edge and could kill pretty much anyone on my team instantly. I did my best to cc her and but there really isn't much you can do against her.

Later in the game we had them in our jungle running, my rage bar was perfect, Leona was in the perfect position to engage but guess what? Screw your everything!!! FIORA ULTIMATE BABY!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! TANKY ASS SKARNER FULL HP!! MY ALMOST-ASSASSINATED-AD-CARRY FULL HP!!! EVERYBODY'S FULL HP!!! TRUE DAMAGE FOR EVERYONE IT'S ON ME! AHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA! And so we lost that game.

For the longest time was my least favorite champion (for making my jungling experience horrible)... But now the torch has been passed.

Fuck , I don't care if this is what you'd define as "Circle Jerk" she's actually op. She can split push with hydra, she can teamfight stupidly well, she can build tank or damage either way she's unkillable with ult, has mobility because fuck kiting and cc removal. So for the first time ever, I completely agree with you boards.
