Something about Wukong.

Do I really have to explain his ult and his W? His base damage on his Q are way high. His R can make your health bar all the way to half health or more in mid game even though he build tank. He is like tank Ekko. Wukong literally has an easy escape potential and a potential to escape while harassing very safely without any punishment. Most new player can play him if you told me he is hard to play. I mean just ask Wukong main about it. He has high damage, a good mobility and escape + tankiness which makes the tank meta really shine today. On top lane while I was playing Talon. Amumu gank and gives me about 3 seconds cc. we we're not able to kill my enemy which in Xin Zhao which he don't apply any damage to us while he is on 300 HP and the Wukong got a double kill on level 8. Just WTF. If you ask me he is 1/5/8. He is not fed, he has only a Hydra and a Phage. Please argue me. I would like to see what your opinion is. Wukong main ones counts too if you ask me.

Is english your first language?

Also, wukong transitions from a damage dealers into a tank as the game draws out. His "escape" is predictable and easily counterable, his ult doesn't do that much damage (especially because it's a dot), and his Q does damage because it's his only reliable source. Everything about him is predictable and counterable :p He is actually quite below-par in this meta

If a tank wukong's damage is too high, that means he is overleveling you. If the game is even, a glass cannon wukong can e-q-r combo the enemy squishy down to about 35%. the wukong can bring it down further to about 25% if the enemy does nothing and stays in the ult for the full duration. Typically, a glass canon wukong needs to pull another e-q combo plus 2-3 auto attack hits to completely kill the enemy squish. This is a glass canon wukong.

So can a tank wukong do that? Nope.

Wukong's base damage is high indeed - but he needs that to survive. Why? Because he literally has zero sustain. In other words, if he doesn't kill his target, he loses. You need damage to kill your target.
