Masteries
Chapter 1: All is one - The Introduction
Welcome to my 
Wukong guide, summoners!
In this Guide I will teach you how to build and play Wukong successfully, this contains:
- Dealing with his laning phase(He has no natural sustain!).
- Exploiting his juking skills to the maximum.(Because you have to be a good juker as Wukong!)
- Distorting and winning Teamfights.(He has an awesome Teamfight control!)
- Countering the enemy team with your equip.
- Using your skills effectively.
- Splitpushing with the monkey.
Wukong, the Monkey King.
I picked him up shortly after his release and I really liked his playstyle. He kinda reminded me of
Shaco's jukes with his Decoy, but then again he is very mobile and controls Teamfights with Nimbus Strike and Cyclone what makes him similar to 
Irelia.So, what is Wukong? He is an offtank, without doubts. His passive and teamfight control make him predestined for that role. He can tank quite a lot of damage, bully the enemy carry, take down squishies fast and get out of very clutch situations.
His laning is considered to be under the weaker ones, but I have to disagree.
He can outlane most common solo top champs(
Irelia, 
Jax, 
Garen, 
Yorick, 
Warwick,
Mordekaiser, just to name a few.), IF you know how to play him and abuse his skills.This is mostly because of his awesome
Decoy, Nimbus Strike and unexpected high burst with Nimbus Strike, Crushing Blow, Cyclone and 
Ignite.He is the Monkey King, a very unique champion and one that is very fun to play.
And here you will learn how to master him.
Chapter 2: Let's get down to business - Runes and Masteries
Runes:
These are the Runes I am using, and of which I think that they are superior on Wukong.
Greater Quintessence of Vigor(+8,1 Hp/5): These Quints GREATLY increase your sustain on the lane since
Wukong has no natural sustain abilities.
Greater Mark of Desolation(+15 ArP): Wukong deals physical damage and 
Greater Quintessence of Health Decoy is his only source of magical damage, so these are the superior choice over all other marks.
-
No Alternatives
Greater Seal of Armor(+13 Armor): They are very sexy for the lane because Wukong already has a lot of natural health and they give you nice dueling power.
-
Alternatives:
- Greater Seal of Vitality
Greater Seal of Evasion
Greater Glyph of Magic Resist(+13 MRes): These are a choice of own preference. I like to be allaround tanky early and counter my enemys with equip later, so I go for flat Mres over Mres/lvl.
Greater Glyph of Cooldown Reduction
Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic ResistMasteries:
I run 3/11/16 Masteries on
Wukong. This might sound odd on first glance, but it provides you with everything you need:
- Survivability through Armor, Mres and Hp/5.
- Utility through Mreg, Movement and CdR on Flash.
- More damage through 2% crit.
You don't really need anything else as this mix suits Wukong the best. It complements him in his weaker parts like sustain or Mreg and enhances his strenths, for example dueling or juking. I feel like the 3% increased speed in
Quickness
is vital for him, that's why I missed out a point in
Strength of Spirit
and two in
Hardiness
