Playing as Fiora

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Hit the Vital

    Position to hit the Duelist's Dance (passive) Vital: each Vital you hit heals you and gives you move speed.

  2. Lunge toward the Vital

    Cast Lunge (Q) on the Vital's side: the strike prioritizes Vitals, and hitting an enemy lowers its cooldown.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 Darius

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Short trades

    Take a short trade, then back off: each of his hits applies a Hemorrhage (passive) stack, and at five stacks he gains a massive AD bonus.

  2. Leave his blade or hug him

    Step out of range or stick to him when he casts Decimate (Q): only the blade, at the edge, heals him and applies Hemorrhage (passive).

  3. Boots early

    Buy your boots early: before he hits level 6, Apprehend (E) is his only spell to get back on you, on a 26 to 16 second cooldown.

  4. Respect his level 6

    Once he hits level 6, don't let him put five Hemorrhage (passive) stacks on you: Noxian Guillotine (R) gains true damage with each stack.
