Super hard laning phase and she also scales. She doesn't have a lot of mobility and isn't taky at all, ask for ganks. Try to riposte her ultimate (or even dodge it, turning your back to her, but that might be rough). Late game you should be able to kill her when she has her Miasma on cooldown. -Miasma is a skill where she releases several clouds of poison, slowing, grounding enemy champions. Grounding means you won't be able to use your Lunge.
Yuumi
Yuumi is insane on fiora, not only because her healing goes well with you bruiser playstyle but also because of all the mobility she gives you while slowing and snaring enemies.

Champion Build Guide
I'll try to make this guide as understandable to newbies as possible. Everything you'll read on this guide are not facts, it is greatly influenced by my own experience and how my gameplay goes. Quick example: A lot of players struggle with


My approach on this guide will be almost a "step-by-step" approach, trying to guide you from the moment you choose top lane and queue up, passing by champion select and what runes you should pick, until you're hitting nexus.
Please review my guide and critize everything - from itemization to my grammar - you think I should improve and I surely will! Any questions you've got throw them at me and I will get to you promptly.

But first of all, what are runes? What is a Keystone?
Runes are enhancements that you can find in your rune page during champion select. These will empower your champion in some way. Between all the possible runes, Keystones are the most powerful ones and often will define which rune path you gonna choose. As you can see on the following example:

This rune path is barely played at all, unless, of course, you're playing it as your primary tree. Your secondary rune tree should fullfil niches, little weaknesses that your champ might have in the specific match up you're about to have. That said, all these options are ok on ![]() |

Aatrox likes to duel and you don't mind at all doing so against him, that's why I recommend you to go

This is a skill match up. During laning phase her short trades are very good and she scales as well as you do. You should try to avoid short trades and focus on longer ones and therefore I recommend you to go

She's really tough to play against as fiora. She can both harass you and completely destroy you at extended trades.

Sorry if I don't have the match up you're looking for, I'll be adding match ups everyday



How do you avoid this?
Let's rewind a bit and start form the beggining.
First step: You should guard your jungler's buff if they don't plan to start there. This comes with virtually no cost and will help your jungler to decide his jungle pathing.
Second Step: When heading to lane take a look at your match up and try to figure how the first minion waves will go. If it is a bad match up it's very likely that the wave will push towards you and you will lose lane priority, if that's the case you should place a ward on river to get scuttle vision, as soon as you leave your jungler's buff. Place that ward exactly where the scuttle spawns or at the pixel bush. If it's a good match up that should mean you'll have lane priority and therefore you can ward later and help your jungle if he needs.

Third step: Now that the river is warded and you're fairly aware where the enemy jungler should be, it's time to focus on your lane opponent. Unless it's


- Wave management
- Opponent cooldowns
For now, we'll ignore wave management, I'll explain freezing, slow pushing and shoving next in the guide.
You need to know




Apart from that, you should also have a solid idea on what's your opponent's abilities cooldown. When playing



If you know your opponent's cooldowns you will be able to get better trades more often. Let's say Darius uses his







Fourth step: The macro. Early on everyone will be focused on one thing:


1) Win your lane in such way that their jungler needs to go top and help, giving your team a chance to get

2) Save your


3) Warn your team that you won't be able to follow if


4) If their top joins bot you can also call your mid laner or jungler to help you getting

Unless you are ready ahead always let your jungler take the herald buff, he's the one who has the chance to walk into any lane, kill the enemy laner and take the turret. It's often recommended to take the mid turret, this will give your team to roam from bot to top more freely since you reduced enemy team's vision on mid.

STERAK'S GAGE
![]() |
The standard item for any melee bruiser. It's a little expensive for what it is, 3200 Gold for what will pretty much be 450 hp + 60 AD plus "Ups, guess I'm not dead" passive, but will do. |
DEATH'S DANCE
SPIRIT VISAGE
![]() |
Solid option in a vacuum, they often will have grievous wounds which will shadow spirit visage effect. It also will make you go over the 40% which doesn't come at great cost if you're running ![]() ![]() |
RANDUIN'S OMEN
![]() |
A great item that I consider as a standard solid choice but also as a niche/counter item since it is great against crit based champs like ![]() ![]() |
