I don't really thinkMonkeyKing Wukong needs a really big rework.** I just want you guys to do something about his decoy ability**. I like how you can create a decoy and be invisible for a couple seconds (The invisibility helps out a lot). But I feel the decoy itself lacks impact. I recently read Wukong's Lore and it said that he always carried smokepoppies (Cause they are useful in combat and to irritate Yi XD).

And I thought it would be a great idea to add the smokepoppies to his decoy ability. Instead of the decoy disappearing and doing useless AP damage. Why don't you make the decoy throw smokepoppies on the ground and make a small smokescreen, kinda like Graves Grave's W (Smoke Screen). It doesn't have to slow or anything, just deny vision of those around. (But keep the invisibility, it helps my ganks a ton XD)

I think that way Wukong can make a bigger impact on team fights besides his only CC ability (R-Cyclone)

This might be cool. Kind of depends on how it would turn out in game. I think Riot plans to implement the smoke poppies in his new decoy whenever he does get a rework.

However this change could come without needing other aspects of his kit. His decoy can't be buffed this much without making him too strong. He pays for a weak decoy ability by one shotting people with lethality.

In short, Wukong's cheesy one shots hold him back from being a good champion.
