Absolutely a blast to play.


My brother purchased her and went to bed so I got on his account and screwed around The internet went down, so I didn't get to finish the game. But Here's my jungle Fiora build!


Hope you like it!

I watched her played both AD and with attack speed, and both just seemed to be lacking. Fiora has plenty of attack speed, you you should be utilizing things which synergize with a high number of attacks within a short time frame. Two things came to mind... The easiest way to get good, scaling, early damage on an AD champ is with critical chance. However, then there's the chance of you shutting down because of armor, like with gangplank. That's why I threw the bloodrazor in- it works well on champs with insane attack speed potential.


So I went with this final build to maximize her damage output steadily throughout the game.




The Avarice Blade duo helps you get that gold together for the double B. F. Swords faster, and gives you a really nice early crit chance which also helps your jungling and your ganks, since double damage is incredibly hard to deal with for anyone early in the game. Mixed with her burst of speed, it's insanity.


I don't turn my madred's razor into Wriggle's Lantern because I save it for Madred's Bloodrazor later on. The trinity force makes the gap closer on Lunge into a potential subsequent heavy hit.


I didn't make the Sheen and went right from Zeal and Phage into Trinity Force because I felt she needed the higher crit chance and life boost more than the damage boost, since she's already working with Bloodthirster which is a high damage boosting item. The early Bloodthirster mixed with her passive makes her amazing in early skirmishes as well as hacking down towers.


I move from Bloodthirster directly into another B.F. Sword because Bloodthirster mixed with my Avarice Blade duo and stacking with my passive should give me all the power I need for a LOT of early kills, so I'm not to worried about gold being a problem. Infinity Edge gives me a huge crit damage boost and lots more crit chance AND a hefty damage boost.


Phantom Dancer gives me more crit and more move and attack speed. The move speed from this and Boots of Swiftness make it impossible for enemies to get away, especially if the slow procs from my Phage or later Trinity Force.


I take madred's bloodrazor to make sure I don't get shut down by any tank who has stacked armor against me and round up my build.


For runes, I take the following:



Or for those who prefer chance to damage increase, take these.

I absolutely prefer critical damage to critical chance.


Critical chance means you get more critical strikes per rounds of attacks. Critical damage means the critical strikes you DO get are going to be worth more. So in a gank situation, where it's GET IN, do whatever damage you can as quick as you can, GET OUT... would you rather be worrying about getting lots of hits in so you can crit a bunch with crit chance, or would you rather the critical strike or two you DO get actually count for something? This is also why I got Infinity Edge before Phantom Dancer.

When I run in a lane, and maybe things go south, and I can only get two hits on an enemy... if one of them is a critical strike... I want it to STING.

I also chose to route my offensive mastery tree to Lethality rather than grab Havoc .

Yes. I know the gold is a unique passive. I know that for a bit more, one of them can be a cloak of agility which becomes phantom dancer. I know all this.

I prefer to build a second Avarice blade because her early game is so crucial that every second counts. Avarice blade is 750, Cloak of Agility is 830. That's a whole camp worth of extra farming, maybe even more. So that's probably a good 15-25 seconds.

You can make the second one a cloak of agility if you like, I'm not gonna stop you and yes, it makes sense. I like the second Avarice blade for my own reasons. If you want to buy the cloak, nobody is gonna tattle on you.

Thanks giantzombie for the alternate item.

Duelist
Allows her to regen life while dueling, stacks on champs, flat on monsters.

Lunge Gap Closer, deals damage, can be cast twice Riposte Cancels auto attack damage, deals magic damage to enemy. Passively boosts her damage.

Burst of Speed Increases move speed if you attack, increases attack speed Blade Waltz A lot like Alpha Strike but more powerful.

You can't have your cake and eat it, too.

This build is not without its weaknesses, but also has enough strength to lift the Golden Gate Bridge.

Pros -She has a very fast clear time in the jungle, usually under 4 minutes. -Her ganks are insanity -Very good at backdooring towers -Strong damage throughout game -Amazing Passive/Ult for counterjungling, the enemy jungler will not win in a duel. -Huge gap closer

spacespacespace

Cons -Very squishy when built to be so damaging -Absolutely no CC whatsoever -Very high cooldowns -Bad early game = Fail -Banned often -Played often -Probably will be hotfixed or nerfed soon -Obviously OP, and that makes me feel like a douche. -No wriggles means you have to buy more wards

Your jungle Map



At the end of every slain camp, type in "finished x camp" in chat. It's time stamped now, and it will help you know when they'll respawn.


Your route is essentially Wolves with someone waiting at blue for you to finish so they can leash. Ask closest lane to your blue watch the river for invasions. Have the lane closest to red buff watch your red buff.


Finish wolves, and by the time you have, blue buff should just be spawning, or at least hasn't been spawned for more than 6 seconds. Kill blue for level 2, run to wraith camp and kill them. Head to mini golems to pick up level 3. Kill red buff, run back to wraiths and kill wraiths once more. Head to wolves, kill, for level 4 and head back. Pick up madred's razor.


This time go wraiths, check bottom lane. If they're pushed and the enemy team is the same level as you or lower, go for a gank. I'll explain how in a second. If not, go straight to wolves. From there, look at top lane, see if top lane can be ganked. If not, go right to mid lane and push the lane out and send your middle back if they need it.

Watch the lane until they return and farm while you're there. When mid returns, go right to mini golems and just watch your respawn timers and kill whatever is up until a gank presents itself. Go counterjungle whenever you have nothing to do.

Steal enemy buffs, keep track of the enemy jungler, watch for MIAs and call them if the lanes aren't. Ward at the red dots as often as possible.

She's definitely a Solo Top champion if she isn't jungling.

The build is different too, so are the runes and masteries. So I created a second build, if you'd like to go to the top and switch it over real quick.


I figured I'd include this because not everyone jungles.


So, I chose to take the same Avarice Blade based start, the build is still based on critical chance, but now we have some sustain and cooldown reduction added in since we need to be IN LANE with someone rather than jumping out and bursting.


I brought wards, too. At about 3 minutes and 30 seconds, they should be finishing up their jungle. Ward your bush at that time, or don't complain about ganks. Put the second ward down when the first one poofs.


You need to learn to master Riposte because it's gonna save you a LOT of trouble from harassing, especially with characters with heavy hits like Nasus or Nautilus. I've found that it's possible to time it so you have Riposte up every 12 seconds to counter Staggering Blow from Nautilus, which shuts his big *** down.

The ghostblade is great because it essentially sustains your burst of speed. Activate burst of speed, and as soon as it's about to wear off, activaye youmuu's, and watch the enemy cry. Once that wears off, activate Randuin's Omen, and watch them rage quit.

Other than that, pretty straightforward. Cooldown reduction, critical, and sustain. What more could you want?

I take this because she has no disengagement. When laning, I don't take it because I should be able to out-lane them with the early sustain and damage output as well as parrying ability from Riposte.




An obvious choice for any jungler. I don't care what the new jungle is like or how badass you are. It is generally agreed upon, for good reason, that if you claim you "don't need smite to jungle", you might as well put a neon "noob" sign on your forehead. You need it for objective control and to boost clear times. End of story.




The only CC she can really get, and that's why I take it to lane. I make sure I grab the mastery for it to lower their armor, too. It makes for much easier duels when I'm leeching, they're not, and they're doing a lot less damage than me thanks to exhaust, and I'm penetrating their armor. I'd call this one an unfair advantage on Fiora.




Yeah, you can get early kills with it, and that's awesome. What I really like about ignite though is using it on champs like Sion or Olaf who can leech, and rendering that leech next to useless. That, paired with exhaust to nerf their damage, usually makes sure that even the best duelers cant touch me. I feel the pair makes her into the duelist she's supposed to be. Throw in a health potion at the start of the duel and win it.

Obviously to JhoiJhoi, I wouldn't know how to even make a guide without her.

And to riot... for breaking the chain of released tanks and AP. I was getting sick of seeing tanks and AP. Bout time we had another bruiser/duelist/jungle phenom.

giantzombie for suggesting cloak of agility as an alternate for the second avarice blade
