Can Fiora be a viable champ?

[quote=Whirlnami7]I usually use Fiora with [[Banshee's Veil]] and [[Mercury's Treads]].[/quote]

[quote=Phil15]Elementz putted her in tier 5 in company of [[eve]], [[twitch]] AND DUNKMASTER YI !!!! So no avoid playing her in competitive play[/quote]

[quote=caucheka][quote=Phil15] Elementz [/quote] and you're going to let a fucking asshat tell you how to play a video game? play whoever you want. (except in ranked, where you should play whatever roll your team needs, more important stuff.)[/quote]

After all he is the son of Liam Neeson I dont think its wise to attack him xD[/quote]

[quote=sirell]She's good, other champions just seem to fit roles better in competitive play. Think of the different typical roles: Jungler Support AD Carry Tank Off-Tank AP Carry There are more reliable junglers than Fiora. She's not a support type (no skills for it whatsoever). People prefer Ranged AD carries so they can stay at the back and whittle away at the enemy in team fights. But has enormous damage as AD carry and has skills that help her sustain and trade blows with other AD carries. Still, people seem to prefer ranged AD carries. There are better tanks than Fiora and her skills don't lend aid to her as a tank. Off-Tank is possible with Fiora and probably the most balanced role with her as a tanky DPS, but there are just better people for the job, it seems. Not an AP carry... But in any case, I like Fiora. Just not my first choices for competitive plays.[/quote]

[quote=Jones MD][quote=Whirlnami7] I've been using Royal Guard [[Fiora]] for twenty levels and she is fun to play as but Xtremely hard without runes. [[Fiora]] is a squishy Melee AD Carry and she is the Fencing Armor Piercing/Shredding Specialist like no other. Her [[Burst of Speed]] is her main steroid that can be used for farming. [[Lunge]] is used to catch run away champions and [[Riposte]] is used to parry basic attacks and reflecting magic damage. You have to play smart when you are using her because you just don't run up on a Mage and expect to live >_> [[Fiora]] "is" viable you just "have to know how to use her." Jax's [[Counter Strike]] and Master Yi's [[Meditate]] can survive her [[Blade Waltz]] since it doesn't proc on hit effects and it doesn't crit either. [/quote] Actually, [[Blade Waltz]] does proc on-hit effects. It's even stated in the skill's description.[/quote]

[quote=Domicilius]I actually feel she will do well versus Rengar based on what I have seen of him so far (very harassy, encouraged to trade). If she could time her W for right when he jumps, I think she could probably win most trades and thus the lane. Other than trading, which she can't do very effectively if its against someone with more tankiness and range than her (Olaf, Darius, etc) she is squishier than most other bruisers until late game. Either you build for damage and glass cannon mid game and then build tanky late game, or you build tanky and can only kill carries.[/quote]
