Playing against Wukong
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
His clone is identifiable: if Wukong suddenly stops, it's probably the real one going invisible. The clone doesn't move.
His R can be cast twice: don't Flash the first knockup if the second one is coming right after.
Punish him when his W is on cooldown (20-16s): it's his only protection and mobility in lane.
Champions that outscale in 1v1 beat him because Wukong is a team engage champion, not a duelist.
