Fiora's re-work, i found the solution

AdanChristo··3 votes·770 views

The solution to Fiora's re-work is not her ult like we thought, it is her W. Fiora's W is out of place with her kit, to activate she must be stationary and take a .75 immobility, this results in a semantic and practical limitation, semantically, Fiora is a duelist/fencer. Fencers dont only stay stationary to parry, they can parry while lunging and evading. However, Fiora does not have the capability to parry while lunging.

Practically, every time Fiora parries she must be immobile/stationary and this contradicts her Ult, had she been more mobile, she would have a better chance to hit her enemies vitals. using W is setting you back if you have an ult ready.

Possible Solution: make Fioras parry mobile, when activated not only does she parry/cc, but she lunges forward or backward depending on mouse movement, (Riot's team can decide how to implement that).

Scenario 1: Fiora vs Jax , jax set's up his stun, fiora lunge parries (W) to jax, stuns him, then hit's his vital spot, then she activates her ulti (R), then (E) strikes 1 vital spot, lunges (Q) towards the other spot, then with 2 vital spots left it is up to the skill of the player to finish.

Scenario 2:

Lux vsKatarina in this scrimmate things arent looking well for Kat, so she decides to run, but lux is tricky, her stun can connect rendering kat really vulnerable and possibly taking the kill, all of a sudden Fioras (W) lunge parries lux's stun and saves Kat. Then Kat and your team congradulates you with a 'gj'.

But wait! so Fiora's (Q) and (W) are lunges? isnt that too many lunging? if you decided to double lunge for mobility the mana must cost you to keep this balanced, i think with good cooldown reduction people might abuse 2 dashes so Riot can increase the mana cost by alitle.

Problem 2: cool downs on her skills, yes the cd's are huge, Riot should reduce q/w/e cd by atleast 15%

Problem 3: After Fiora uses her ult, we need cool down reduction like Kat, this way Fiora is good in team fights.

ive been playing fiora a lot since the patch, i believe a lunging w is ALL she needs

well you arent the only one playing her

what i would love is a faster projectile speed on her w

but thats just my fantasy of parrying stunns like a bauss

anyway we play cahmpions whos dificulty comes from his unique gameplay pattern i think that she rivals azir in the dificulty part ... if not she is at least close

maybe she is easier mechanicaly but playing her correctly isnt something you will acomplish in 3 days

yea the speed is an anomaly, it's like they are trying to nerf the W, however, if you can do a lunging W i'd be more fun to play her :D, it syncs with her ult because she lunges closer to ur opponent while still having a fresh q, dont you agree?

maybe it fits

but i just dont feel that she needs any more power i found myself dealing with adc's and tanks alike rather good i was a portable damage dealing janna for my team during teamfights

we are speaking about a kit that is nothing like the ones we had before where a meele damage dealer champion gets to take the supportive role in teamfights

just give it time to sink in ... once players know what they are doing ... we can talk ballance

This is the first step in the right direction. The second thing they should do is remove the ult entirely. Make it some kind of passive instead. Duck-Duck-Goose is literally the most retarded mechanic I have ever seen in a strategy game.

They should really just come out and admit the ult was short-sighted and quite frankly, full-retard. Idk how they got out of that meeting with a clean conscience.
