Very easy to abuse level 1-2-3. you can first blood him level 1 and out duel him until later on. In this matchup I try to get a quick level 1 and snowball lane.
Akali
If played right, a very easy lane, but often times people underestimate her level 1 damage. If you wait till level 3 to go in you will win every trade and escape unscathed.
Darius
Relatively hard lane because Darius is such a lane bully. I try to make smart trades and bait out his Q. When is Q is down I Q-E- and auto a bunch until my Attack speed steroid wears off and i run away.
Fiora
You are much more helpful to your team, but laning against her is annoying. She out damages you early on untill you get some items and can survive her damage.
Gangplank
DO NOT TRY TO FIGHT HIM LEVEL 1, OR 2. Please. I am a pretty decent gangplank player and im telling you, his passive is BROKEN in level 1 trades. Its a D.O.T. that stacks and slows.... Its very dumb. you kill him levels 5-18 though easy, unless he goes tankplank. Should be a relatively easy lane.
Garen
He shouldn't kill you, you shouldn't be able to kill him. Just farm for the late game and try to help your team out a lot.
Gnar
Level 1 gnar takes boomerang. I ALWAYS E in level 1 and try to get off as much damage as possible, and then kill him level 2-3. Very easy matchup. Stay away from mega gnar however.
Hecarim
For this matchup i try to stand in my minions and poke him with a plain Q. If he's low enough you can fight him, and if you have jungle help you can fight him though. An all in lvl 1 though is not a super idea.
Irelia
You win level 1 fights IF you trade under your minions. She wins if you trade under her minions. Many inexperienced irelias will mash E when you E to them, so i love E -W -Q when i hit level 3. If played well, isnt the worst mathcup. Watchout level 6 though.
Jarvan IV
Stupid champ. Dodge his Q, you win trades. Get hit by his Q, you lose trades.
Jax
Easy lane until level 6. Just E Q and then W his alphastrike and keep fighting when you come out.
Kennen
Fight him smart. Go in hard level 1, and then after level 1 wait for jungle ganks for relatively free kills.
Lee Sin
Not as big of a counter as everyone says. So long as you dodge his Q, you win trades. If he hits you, you're kinda screwed. Also try and be smart to not let him E for free, and he does E you, DO NOT W (unless its to block Q) because he'll see you.
Malphite
Wukongs biggest counter IMO. Unless you're jungle camps you, there is little hope, unless you're way better than him. This matchup is very hopeless. He wins trades and does good damage. Plus his Attack speed debuff really messes with your attack speed steroid. Wukong also needs time for his CD's and by the time you're ready to fight, he will have his passive shield back up.
Maokai
Very hard matchup. You out trade him level 1, but after then he just out sustains you. Level 6 you get a power spike also so you might be able to kill him then depending on the situation. Ask for jungle help.
Nasus
Wither is a broken move. Get jungle help always and try to win the game AS FAST AS POSSIBLE!!! try to roam for kills
Nidalee
Easy lane, tbh. You can W her spears, W her Q in cougar, and you do good damage to her since shes not tanky.
Pantheon
Pantheon Passive please. Just get jungle help and its an easy lane. You can win without it you just have to outplay him. Try to W his burst.
Renekton
Ask for jungle help and you will win lane. If you dont get ganks though, he will most likely stomp you. If you can kill him before he can kill you, you will most likely snowball the lane.
Rengar
Hes pretty squishy so you can abuse him early. Just trade smart, dont fight him when he has 4-5 stacks on his resource bar otherwise it will be an easy lane for him.
Lissandra
Many think this is a hard matchup. I love it when i fight lissandra. Unless shes stacking HP and Armor in her runes and masteries and buys a dorans sheild, Just E to her and kill her level 1. Trust me. She will be forced to stay in lane and die or go B and burn TP and lose a wave of minions.
Riven
Not too hard of a matchup. Just W when she E-Q's into you and run away to avoid the damage. You can fight her when she has her cd's. Dont fight her level 6 though. Dont fight if your W is down also.
Rumble
You can kill him easy before he gets sorc/haunting. After he gets some m-pen he will be a classic rumble and just tear you down with his flamespitter. Wukong has no untargeted gap closer (I.E. he needs to target something, unlike a riven or a shen) and so if he is chasing you, you will just be taking constant damage.
Sion
Ward enemy razorbeaks and wolves, if he does em, kill him. If he doesnt, all in him level 1 in lane, you out damage him for most parts of the game. When He Q's W so that he doesnt know when you leave the boundaries, forcing him to guess (for higher dmg and risk missing you) or release it right away (which will do less dmg)
Tryndamere
Same thing as nasus. If i had a nickel every time i lost a game to an 0-10 trynd with 10000 cs, id be a billionaire. Easy lane, impossible game. In lane what you can do to win, since he outsustains you, is to either try to kill him in one go, or to just focus on farming as well. If you plan to keep chipping his health down it won't work.
Vladimir
Pretty easy lane, trade him after he Q's a minion and ull win trades. Watch out for his late game however. Only all in after he pools.
Wukong
Op champ. ;)
Yasuo
Just kill him. He has such a weak early game and wukong has such a great early game, he wont be able to out duel you. I would recomend AA-Q-E-AA a couple times and then W.
Hey everyone, I am Adamo, a Diamond Wukong only main on the NA Servers. I started playing wukong at the start of season 4 when i was silver 5, and climbed to Diamond this season. I beleive that a smart Wukong can carry every single game, and win every matchup. Go easy on me, first guide Q_Q This guide is still a work in progress so expect more updates! Pls leave comments on what you would like to know more about!
Pros-
Very good early game
Very good in lane
Very good in teamfights and late game
Can fit many roles
Cons-
Countered by tanky sustain champions
Likes to teamfight, so is susceptible to split pushing top laners like tryndamere.
Items
Items
I really like going assassin wukong when im stomping my lane, and bruiser wukong when my team has a carry jungler (khazix, lee sin, etc) or i lose lane. I see many people get trinity force on Wukong and it makes me sad. It is a waste of item space on wukong, and there are many better items that are more cost efficient. Trinity is alright, but not very good.
Skill Sequence
Skill Sequence
Get E first for the attack speed steroid and tons of dmg, Then Q for the Armor shred and tons of Dmg, and then W for the sick jukes.
Spells
Spells
As a laner, i dislike TP. My entire climb to Diamond I had to deal with opponents who took flash TP, while i took flash ignite, and i stand by my statement that ignite is very very good on wukong. Take TP though if you wish. I only take TP in ranked 5's.
Team Work
Team Work
In teamfights your goal is to delete the enemy AD carry/Mid laner. Wukong in the late game has the ability to 100-0 any squishy champ in a second. Stay out of vision, W - ghostblade, E Q R on the enemy target. They will die :)
Unique Skills
Unique Skills
Wukong's W take some practice to be very good with. Many people will W and then run in the opposite direction and go "WOW im so sneaky!", but youre not. Instead, for example, you are running to the left, a millisecond before you W, click to the right (to make it appear as if you screwed up the combo and turned before you pressed W) and then continue running to the left. The other person will go "WOW what an IDIOT! he screwed up his Juke and turned before he pressed W!" and will run away from you. Also, if possible when trading, AA Q E and AA, dont E Q AA, although sometimes you have no choice.
