Fiora passive is RNG?

Silven··2 votes·1,177 views

A friend of mine mentioned that in a Fiora mirror match-up, the outcome is pretty much based on randomness.

If Fiora1's passive appears on Fiora2's back when they face eachother whereas Fiora2's passive appears on Fiora1's front side, then Fiora2 is more likely to win since she has easier access to it.

If that is true, I suggest having the passive appear in a set motion. Something like first facing the enemy, then on the "south" side, then north, then on the back. A simple clockwise or counter-clockwise motion would make it a little too easy for Fiora's to just circle the enemy and get each proc off quickly, so that's why there should be one on the bottom and one on the top side respectively in that order.

It would not only allow Fiora players to better anticipate what positioning they should assume next, but it would also give the enemy champion a chance to correct their positioning to deny her the access to the vital spot she has targeted now. As opposed to Fiora being like "Uh where do I have to hit now?" and the enemy being like "Uh what do I have to defend now?"

At any rate, nobody likes RNG and if the situation mentioned at the beginning here does unfold, the one Fiora that lost will likely not feel that they've been given a fair chance considering the other Fiora just 'got lucky with the vital position'.

This is just a suggestion, so feel free to point out what could be the issue with a pre-set passive rotation.

yes and no.

its rng where the mark appears initially. but the next one should appear on the opposite side. meaning if you walk into lane and get a bad mark on the other side of the hitbox, you can prepare for going in for a trade on your opponent, since the next mark appears on the front.

im not entirely sure how it works. i think the next mark should then appear on one of the sides.

I hate that Fioras new kit is a grab bang of things I like and things I don't.

She has an escape now - YAY! Her ultimate is terrible - BOO! Parry has interesting interactions now - YAY! Her passive make you a slave to the RNG - BOO!

As someone who bought Fiora to top main her, this rework changed how she plays so significantly that I wish I hadn't bought her at all.
