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 Gragas
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Stay behind your minions
Stay behind your minions: Body Slam (E) stops on the first enemy it meets, minions included.
- Get out of the barrel zone fast
Get out of the Barrel Roll (Q) area right away: the longer the barrel sits on the ground, the more its explosion hurts and slows.
- Step up after a missed E
Step up when Body Slam (E) hits nobody: its cooldown isn't reduced and stays at 14 to 12 seconds.
- Spread out from your allies
Spread out from your allies: Explosive Cask (R) knocks every enemy away from the impact, which can split you up or send you toward his team.
