Playing as Wukong
Tips to maximize your impact
- Nimbus Strike, then Crushing Blow
Engage with Nimbus Strike (E), then Crushing Blow (Q): the dash gives you attack speed, and Crushing Blow shreds your target's armor before your Cyclone (R).
- Stay in close
Stay in close when you fight: Stone Skin (passive) increases your armor and health regen as long as you're fighting champions or monsters.
- Vanish to escape or dodge
Cast Warrior Trickster (W) to escape or dodge a key spell: you dash and turn invisible for a moment, and your clone stays in place to fool the enemy.
- Recast your Cyclone
Recast Cyclone (R) right after the first: the spell can be cast twice, and each spin knocks nearby enemies into the air again.
Playing against Fiddlesticks
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Stay out of his fear range
Stay out of range of Terrify (Q), a targeted spell that reaches 575: if your range is longer, hit him from there without risking the fear.
- Cut his harvest short
If you have CC, interrupt Bountiful Harvest (W): he heals during the channel, and if he finishes it, the remaining cooldown drops by 60%.
- Spread out from your allies
Spread out from your allies when he arrives: Crowstorm (R) hits every enemy around him, and Bountiful Harvest (W) drains them all.
- Ward around objectives
Ward the brushes and flanks around objectives: spotted in time, he loses the surprise of Crowstorm (R) and the passive fear of Terrify (Q).
