Fiora's rework is amazing

A lot of people recently (including riot) as showed that fiora's rework was kinda a failure and they did many mistakes about it. I think many people didn't like the changes, especially on her ult. Before the rework, fiora was played a lot, but i was not really intested in her because she had nothing special, her abilities were kinda bland in my opinion. I have played a few games, she was op but boring to play. Then, the rework happened. A lot of people were angry because they miss the old fiora. She decreased in popularity by A LOT. But, I am the minority. I think she is way more complex and unique and that's what make her interesting. Her abilties oyes are more skilled based than before.

So I'm here to explain... why do i love fiora so much?

Her abilities.

Passive: This thing is all about positioning. But it's all about timing. For example :

  • Renekton, is almost dead, and you too. But, you can only kill him if you hit a vital. Sadly the passive popped behind him, making it harder to kill him.
  • You guys take a risk and jump at each others.
  • Renekton jumps on you first. And now, you guys are close to each other.
  • There is a lot of chance that he will stun you, so be prepared to W as soon as he jump.
  • Renekton is stunned.
  • You Q towards Renekton (it will focus on the vitals so it will hit for sure)
  • RIP Redneckton It's so satisfiying when i hit a vital lol

Her Q is not as good as the old one but it still do a ton of damage. And it's also a life-saver on certains enemies abilities like MF's ult. (Tips: dont use your w on MF's ult, that would be a bit stupid :) ) Also it's great when chasing someone. Also, what i love is her Q makes the vitals easier to hit because it basically focus on it.

Her W is clearly OP and it is my favorite ability. It can block anything except turrets. Any abilities that you believe that are OP can be blocked (Azir's ult, Jinx's ult, anything really). And it's great against some champions like volibear.

Her E is also really great. It gives movement speed + attack speed. It's really good for farming and chasing someone. (Ravenous Hydra + E = Godlike farming).

Her ult is not to be understimated at all. Some people on the community didn't like it. Here are some users's youtube comments:

  • Wtf is this?
  • Why healing ability on a fighter? stupid smh Well ok good. But if used on the right time damn it's fucking good. Also all the 4 vitals appeared so it does ton of damage. And if u place on the middle of the teamfight, it's really good and heals all your allies.

I created this post because I feel the new fiora is really underrated and people bash on it too much, and as a fiora main, she can be really good if you get some practice. It's all about timing with the W.

I strongly recommend for anyone that are good with postioning and quick thinking/reflex.

Tell me what you think about the new Fiora. Peace.

I have literally not heard a single person that isn't a troll say that the new Fiora is bad since after, like, the second week of her rework's release.

In fact, much more people still seem to be under the impression that she is overpowered.

If it wasn't for %health true damage, I'd be ok with it. Sure she is attractive because she has so much play potential, but that also implies oppressive to play against. Still baffles me Riot hasn't considered, instead of nerfing her numbers until she becomes balanced, to replace true damage with physical, or even physical damage with %armor pen (think GP barrels), making it good against tanks (you can even keep it with %health); but not COMPLETELY nullifying tankiness. It's retarded because it's not even her design. Nobody thinks of a light fencer as a tank melter. A void spitting machine like Kog'maw, melting tanks, seems logical. Fiora? wtf.
