i dont understand why and how, volibear is considered TINY thread... Basicly (maybe its because of swift) but with counquer once vs grasp once vs lethal tempo volibears. Both fk me so hard that there was no counter play even with help of mid/jungle in 1st case. in swift starting lvl 3, i coudnt get close to minions even if i parry his q and stun. he just will go with q again, lower cd. first one literaly lvl 6 all in dive me (full hp) like whatever. came back with thornmail and plated steelcaps. On his way to buy dusk and dawn. (25 cs lead and kill) no matter what no way to kill, outheal outdmg him.
in second game lvl 3 fight, i lost only by stupid mistake/luck/summoner spells diff, and he 180o deegree different build rush dusk. only with 1 kill advantage and same lvl/minions, i had hydra proc R on him, he outdmg outheal and finaly kill me in 1vs1 clutch XD UNDERMY TOWER. dont tell me its skill issue because he engaged with Q i parry it, stunned him he got agro from turret, i R him instantly e/q he R disabled tower fk me up and run on ghost, while i was procsing vitals spawned on just procsed R AREA OF HEALING i wasnt able with hydra stand and fight him. Maybe its outdated ? or i am so bad ?

Hey, thanks for your question. To be honest it is hard for me to tell where you are going wrong when not being able to see your gameplay but from what it sounds like it may be a positioning issue. Try to avoid his E lightening by walking out or Qing if he is trying to stun you. Once that is on cool down, then you will want to rengage. Pre 6 he still should not be an issue but if you are struggling often with this fight, then take the grasp rune page I have on my guide and it will make laning phase much easier to handle.

Why not Bloodthirst her?

Because I barely know her (sorry, bad joke). Ravenous is a key item for Fiora because of tiamat active. This helps with wave clearing and using it to pop vitals easily. Ravenous already gives a large amount of lifesteal so there isn't much of a benefit in going another lifestealing item. There should realistically be no build that doesn't have Ravenous Hydra in it for Fiora because it gives her everything she needs.

Thank you for the answering! I'm using a lot your handbook, it's great! I'm new on fiora and I have a lot of questions (I exepct to not be too anoyng bro kkk). About the BT, I thought about doing it as a fourth or last item because once people start doing grievous wounds items, it feels like she dont heal any considerable amount anymore. And it's 80ad, it's a lot. I feel that lack of damage building itens like trinity force. I mean, it seems that (and it's probably because i'm learning playing her) that once I get Hydra as the first item, I simply get nerfed. People rush bramble vest I voilá! I dont do damage, I don't heal. I just lose every single trade. I strongly agree with you that it's a key item on her, but idk. It really don't feels like a spike early on. As well as trinity force. I feel like, I was thinking on doing tiamat and eclipse to fix this fragile early game. Is it a good idea? Do you felt it when you started playing her too?

Into the late game you want items that negate more centralized damage from the enemy team. That being Deaths Dance or Maw if the enemy team has a lot of burst AP damage. Blood Thirster is repeating on stats that you already have and will also be impacted by greivous wounds. For the early game once you finish Ravenous and your landing opponent has greivous wounds, just recognize your windows to heal. You can still play very aggressively, and if your hp is low, take a step back and try to heal off of the wave once grievous wounds are off of you. So if they have bramble, just attack the wave around them and use your active. If they have executioners, fall back to your tower and heal off the wave before they apply grievous. In either scenario you will be outhealing your opponent well enough.

Side note for grievous: it feels horrible when your opponent buys it especially because they are fairly cheap items, BUT if you look at how much healing they are really negating it isn't a whole lot in the long run. It is only setting their core items back by buying it. So as long as you acknowledge when they buy it and play accordingly around it, it shouldn't be too difficult.

That was quite an explanation, thank you! I keept it in mind when played against a orn and I did great. And you were right, the healing with hydra+eclipshield was far enough from middle game on.

Oh, and another thing. I really really don't understand why people are doing hullbreaker on her. Could you explain me? There aren't better options? I know that it is insane for chomping down turrets, but she's already great on doing it. Would not be better something to make her better at the fighting? If you can kill whoever comes, even under their own turrets. You don't need to botther on taking so fast that turrets. Right?

Hullbreaker is only really beneficial when your entire game plan is to split push and pull pressure from the enemy team. Hullbreaker is not just good at taking towers but it makes you tankier, faster to escape, and buffs the cannon minion in your wave to push waves/towers faster. Fiora is a great splitpusher so it is a good item to help her create pressure, but realistically I find myself not using it a whole lot as I would rather use items that compensate for Fioras weaknesses which is team fighting (also in soloque games you cant fully commit to splitpushing considering your teams like throwing fights 24/7).

Got it, thanks. You help me a lot to understand this champ. I'm now feeling a litte better how she rewards the time spent on understandig and practicing on her. The games are starting to get better and I'm starting doing things I never thought she was capable of.

Do you think she's good at competitive cenarios? I say it because myy team is playing a tournament here in my city. It's a small tournament and we're an amateur team, but there's an quite ok money reward. I would like to add her on my pool. I already have camille, gwen and shen. How should I mind playing her in a well coordinated game?

She is good in competitive play. If you are familiar with Camille playstyle it shouldn't be too different.
Split pushing: Pull pressure opposite of objectives in mid-late game (Split opposite of dragon/baron). Make sure to take teleport to get to teamfights for these objectives as well.
Teamfights: Play as you would with Camille, by dashing to the backline to one shot their carries/ if you arent as strong and your allies are, play next to them in the backline and whenever their engage comes in, use your ultimate to quickly pop them with the %hp dmg and it will drop the heal to heal up your team.

Hi what about stride breaker on fiora? i know it blocks ravenous hydra option but im curious about this item's state on fiora. ^_____^

Hey Grox, Stride breaker used to be strong on Fiora back when Ravenous Hydra didn't have its active prior to patch 14. It is still a viable item if you plan for chasing down an extremely mobile and low hp team. Realistically I would recommend still going Ravenous Hydra and then following with Trinity Force for the increased movement speed. There is much more flexibility with having Ravenous Hydra healing and aoe damage. Trinity Force is all you would really need as Fiora if you needed to chase down anyone while dealing massive damage.

All that is to say, Stride Breaker is fun to play if you want to lock down opponents. It's fun to use PTA runes. The only downside is it feels miserable when behind. I would not consider taking it in ranked. Hoped that helped :).

Hello, I was wondering if it would be possible to review my game I don't know if I played it well or what I could improve. Good build guide I learned a lot.

Hey Orc, I havent done coaching videos in awhile, but if you would like me to review your OP.GG game/build I usually review them on my twitch stream: https://www.twitch.tv/anoyingbro5 . Feel free to follow me there so you are notified when I go live to ask :)

why does it say 14.1 but it isnt updated for it (still have devine sunderer build just without devine sunderer,doesnt use some of her new good items)

1

(4) |

Good looks :). Didn't notice I still had the Divine section in the published guide. As for the new items, there isn't any other than I would consider to be optimal for . As the season progresses and item buffs/nerfs come out, I will update the guide.

I have tried fiora for a while and this guide was helpful to get into her (not the only guide that I have followed, but one of them).
One question: is viable on this champion? It could work well with a long trade with the R. Good work.

I appreciate the comment :). As for lethal tempo, it really doesn't benefit Fiora's play style in the current meta. If you look at most of the champions that benefit from (, ,, etc.) they all need high attack speed over dealing high AD damage. Taking that into account, abilities benefit more from high AD and ability haste considering her abilities are on a fairly low cooldown. That being said, the AD helps deal additional damage since it scales with her passive, while the ability haste allows you to auto attack cancel with your Q and E .

Thank you, I can see the point. That was actually just a curiosity, more than an Idea to try it out with (I'm doing great with by now), but thank you anyway. Again, Nice work!

Fiora seems really cool. I might give her a shot. Good guide!

Have fun and enjoy! There is a bit of a learning curve, so don't get discouraged if you don't perform well in the first couple of games. Let me know how you do!

Very guide, your graphic about the fiora q map and the vitals are both super helpful and informative!

With it I've managed to raise my fiora winrate from 20% to 40%.

I appreciate the positive feedback :). Keep on practicing, and you'll get that 40% to 60% in no time!

Thank you so much for this guide! It helped me so much, recently I have been looking at guides and finding ones that I like. I have been seeing what characters have been used recently and to find out how people play them. The thing about Fiora that I don't like is that she has a slow wave clear (For me) and I have to get high AD to start fights. She is very good at dueling which is great for me!

1

(4) |

No thank you for the kind words :). I am glad to help where I can. Her wave clear is an issue, which is why she requires either Ravenous Hydra, Essence Reaver, or Manamune to efficiently clear. The Tiamat passive when building Ravenous helps to push with auto attacks, where as Essence Reaver and Manamune are options to push using your Q and E to auto attack cancel the wave to push fast, without running out of mana.

So a few things are unclear for me:
*In the runes notes you say overheal is the lesser rune (which u recommend in ur yt guide) But you also write Triumph is useless and so go overheal. But in the rune section all precision builds have triumph instead of overheal?

*U say u like ER over Ravenous but then in item build examples below you dont put ER and just the ravenous? Which is better to use?

*In your yt guide u say Stridebreaker is better than Goredrinker because of the slow. But in this guides item section stridebreaker is barely mentioned? Whats overall hetter mythic? Stride or Gore?

*If i build the Tankshred/Sustain item path, should i choose the Grasp of Undying rune build with it? Or does that itempath work just as good against tanks with the regular Conq build?

*Would a good basic build be: Start with ToG, build scepter after. Then go boots, Goredrinker, Ravenous, Hullbreaker, Wit's End, Sell Tear, Death's Dance?

(I want to main fiora and this was the best guide i found so i just wanna make sure about the quesrions i have)

A lot of the point you have mentioned will be addressed shortly, but I would like to add that the meta shifted a lot this season, so a lot of videos on my YouTube have been outdated due to nerfs/buffs. I plan on doing a updated YouTube guide as the season is coming to a close, but until then, this guide is the most updated.

As for triumph vs overheal, triumph CURRENTLY is better for the extra healing for diving/ team fighting. Triumph isn’t an amazing rune still, but it is the lesser of all evils.

I do like ER over ravenous, but if you go ER you ‘shouldn’t’ go hullbreaker. Since hull got a buff, I’ve been perms spamming it recently and it feels good, so I recommend going with ravenous for the ability to go hull. Both are still interchangeable.

Stride vs gore is very outdated. Stride is barely even an option with fiora at this point. Gore is 10x better for many reasons.

As for when to take grasp, only take it into match ups you don’t feel comfortable against. Otherwise conq is always the best, no matter the build path.

You don’t need tear or any mana items as long as you manage mana well early. If you feel you need mana, then use ER. Rush ER into gore. If no ER then go gore first. Boots usually second and then follow the guide for the rest of the basic order.

As we are ending the season I will be clarifying more in the notes as a lot has changed this season. The absolute best places to look for updated information are the runes/items of this guide, as well as watching me live on twitch where I can answer any question you have, while playing the most updated stuff.
