Why can Fiora block things that hit her from behind.

It makes absolutely no sense. I understand why she can parry things coming from the side, but from behind. Really

She also parries tsunamis and monsoons.

Not only that, but she parries it and then STUNS the mountain/maker of such things! Fiora can NULLIFY a charging mountain AND then stop it in it's tracks!

tbf if you were a mountain and a woman stopped you in her tracks with just a sword wouldn't you be shocked that she could even stop you?

so does Yasuo but at least fiora has to use a little bit of timing

Not only did she parry a mountain, but she also stunned it. A living rock, got stunned, after being parried.

Better nerf Irelia

I mean, technically Malphite's ult is called unstoppable force... so nothing should block or stop it.

what not even Morgana can stop him ?

why block/stop it when you can just stand on a 3ft stick Fizz

How can Cassiopeia turn Malphite to stone? How do boots make Corki and Nami faster? How can Teemo blind Lee Sin?

How can the corner of a windwall that touches a single pixel of a tidal wave block the whole thing.

SoMNia6 votes

Yasuo blocking my tidal wave is one of my least favourite things that has ever happened to me in League. Even over getting one-shotted by Nasus. At least when Fiora parries it, it doesn't disappear.

HighH15 votes

Getting one-shotted by Nasus is an honor. He must've had an enormous amount of stacks and waited like 40 minute to do that

Crossette3 votes

nah

item 3078 and about 300 stacks with a crit is easily enough to one-shot anyone that isn't a hard tank

auheuheuheuheuheuheu

no but really

I played Nasus quite a bit in patch 6.1

he's overbearing as all hell

HighH11 votes

He couldn't one shot back then with TF,300,and a crit and he still can't do it now unless he's fighting vs someone literally just came back from afk or dc

Crossette1 votes

(68+136+300+120[base from Q]}*2

1248 not including bonus AD, masteries, runes, and enemy armor.

Easily possible if you take a decent amount of AD and maybe DFT with assassin and other damaging masteries.

How is a nasus gonna have triforce and 300 stacks that early? by the time nasus has that. the enemys are sure to have more than 1300

LordGeovanni4 votes

I like how he multiply the whole thing and spell blade only amplifies champion base ad

Crossette1 votes

I'm talking about the crit.

Crits double your damage.

iamthegoatofwar2 votes

crits only make the base damage on Q higher, not the bonus damage included

Forn ala creme2 votes

False.

Nasus' Q in it's entirety is not affected by crits. Go try it. I know this because I have tried it.

EDIT: lol I thought I was replying to the person below... V.V

His stack damage can not critical strike.

His stack damage can not critical strike.

um.... it can Nasus item 3031

Forn ala creme2 votes

Directly from the wiki:

Critical strikes modify Siphoning Strike's base bonus damage but not the bonus damage from the stacks

Ozag the Mighty2 votes

Dissagree, I just recently...welll...a few weeks ago played a nasus top lane and with Triforce and IE (I know not ideal but was winning lane and I bought just cause) a Yi jungle came in for a gang and I hit R then Q and splattered him...so one shots are very possible on squishys.

Auz the Ripper2 votes

The IE and the ult are more important than trinity in that context, seeing as IE and the ult add alot of AD and IE basically increases the AD ratio of a crit by 50%. That equals alot of pain combined with the Q stacks

Teemo's blinding dart is a hallucinogenic that completely covers sight but also disorients your ability to aim Nami wears it on her tail and head, they're made to cause less discomfort than rubbing bare scales on the ground, they're also super aerodynamic. Cassiopeia turns Malphite from a metamorphic rock into an igneous rock, similarly to how Orianna can turn into stone and stop moving.

Also, you missed corki ;) Are you going to say that boots make corki's dexterity improve on the pedals in his plane? [slayer-jinx-wink]

I've been asking myself "Why can fiora" Ever since I've seen her parry my ulti as nami.. then zed death mark.. vlad hemoplague.. and ignite... and I eventually stopped asking myself "Why can fiora" since then xD

Last time I played against a fiora she didn't block my massive Sion dong so I have no idea what you're talking about.

Alamand3 votes

i think sion becomes immune to effects when he ults so he's basically a walking fizz e

It's like instant save-me-from-everything windwall.

I hate windwall. I hate new riposte.

Festive Bear3 votes

Windwall is balanced, blocks only projectiles, quite long cooldown, and laser ultimates can go through it. Also it stays in one place and does not provide any form of CC. It is on higher cooldown than projectile CC abilities so after you use it, you have to be cautious. Riposte is on lower cooldown than hard CC abilities, it can counter any and all forms of damage and CC, not only projectiles, but anything. It also stuns you if you did any CC to her. It is actual bullshit.

A true duelist leaves no openings

Actually, a real fencer can parry from any angle without changing the direction they are facing using any of the 9 basic parries.

Most focus on the front and sides, but number nine is very effective at blocking any attacks from the rear.

LordGeovanni1 votes

but can they parry being hit from 5 different things in up to 5 diffrent directions at the same time

Quort2 votes

In a game of fantasy where everyone's fighting a group of other legendary and mythical figures? Yea, sounds about right! :P

LordGeovanni2 votes

thats usually is a barrier not parrying. parrying in a fantasy game usually blocks the first skill in the direction you block and counters it

Cus structures and towers are immune to damage unless the ones in front of them are destroyed first. Also, Kayle wears too much armour.

Doesn´t Yasuo Windwall works like that too? It´s not a bug, it´s a feature.

Festive Bear2 votes

Somewhat, Yasuo 's windwall only blocks projectiles, nothing constant or anything that covers an area immediately. Like lux's ult, long range but does damage to the entire area of her ultimate immediately. Something like Illaoi 's soul ripping tentacle, covers the area of the ability over time, that is what Yasuo 's windwall blocks. However, fiora's riposte blocks anything and everything. Lux's ult? yup, Vel'koz's ult? Mhm, Maokai 's root? Yup. Fiora's riposte blocks any and all damage and CC from all angles, if she receives CC and hits a champion with her riposte projectile, she stuns them for 2 seconds. She blocks, ALL DAMAGE AND ALL CC FROM ANY AND ALL ANGLES, DOES NOT MATTER WHAT IT IS. On a 10-15 second cooldown. Talk about balance
