Playing as Fiora
Tips to maximize your impact
- Hit the Vital
Position to hit the Duelist's Dance (passive) Vital: each Vital you hit heals you and gives you move speed.
- Lunge toward the Vital
Cast Lunge (Q) on the Vital's side: the strike prioritizes Vitals, and hitting an enemy lowers its cooldown.
- Riposte their CC
Save Riposte (W) for enemy CC: it parries damage and effects for a moment, and if it parries an immobilizing effect, your stab stuns the first champion hit.
- Circle them for your R
Hit the four Grand Challenge (R) Vitals by circling your target: if you hit them all in time, or they die after the first, you heal nearby allies.
Playing against Aurora
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Trade after her W
Take a trade once Across the Veil (W) is used: it's her spell to vanish, on a 22 to 18 second cooldown unless she takes part in a kill.
- Short trades
Take short trades: every spell or auto that hits you releases a spirit that heals her, through Spirit Abjuration (passive).
- Don't fight in her zone
Don't fight inside Between Worlds (R): she teleports from edge to edge, and crossing the edge slows you. Get out early, with a dash if you have one.
