Wukong Not Important to RIOT

Radiant Wukong··4 votes·349 views

I started LoL late S2 and my first love was Riven as I joined on her free week. A couple weeks later, Wukong came into rotation and my passion switched. My secondary champions are Talon, Fizz and Ekko.

Anyways, shortly after and all of S3, Wukong received about 7 nerfs with a +4 armor increase as his only compensation.

The only other attention he has received in the following 4 seasons are visual bugs that didn't affect gameplay.

Riot, I'm politely asking to show Wukong a little love. The year of the monkey just passed and all he has to show for it is the Radiant Wukong skin (which I love dearly).

At the least, his decoy could use an update. Make it physical damage.

Even better, allow it to be used on reaction like Fiora's parry or Nocturne/Sivir spell shield. Example - Darius jumps in the air to dunk you, Kong uses decoy, it executes the decoy and the real Kong gets away. As it functions now, you still get obliterated even though you're invisible. Or I use decoy on reaction once I see Syndra's spheres homing in, my clone stands there while invisiKong gets pelted to death because the ult is still tracking the real one. Basically, any AA/Skill in transit should be redirected to the decoy.

Or maybe change nimbus strike buff to an attack damage steroid, attack speed doesn't really seem to go with his kit or playstyle. Nimbus strike is almost always used to dash into the enemy team then immediately ult afterwards, so having a damage steroid would make a lot more sense than attack speed.

You're welcome, although if and when it happens I'll be cursing his name as he's kicking my ass lol

the change at the end is interesting, but I disagree with someone's ult swapping targets to the decoy when it is targeted. That just isn't how targeted spells work. In theory, you could clone a split second before darius ults, and he'll ult the clone.

For syndra ult though, I think it would be interesting/funny if wukong's clone counted as a braum shield or windwall XD. It would still target you, but get stopped because the clone is in the way. Then maybe when it gets hit, it does the animation then goes away after the small delay.

Imo wukong's combos are a bit more guaranteed than others. He would need a change in his kit somewhere to show off his skill more, allowing him to do more but widen the possibility of mistakes. He would need a rework for this to happen, but I don't know if he needs one since I don't play him.

Do you think wukong needs a rework? Alot of the older champions have gotten reworks.

I probably wouldn't like a rework and he doesn't need one.

But it's not a "swap" because the decoy IS Wukong. It's more of a "This is me, now it's not, abracabra" than it is a switcheroo.

The coding would probably be hard af, but when decoy is used, it should make a new Kong and possibly have a .1 second untargetable feature.
