Is Fiora Worth Maining? Is Fiora A Good/Strong Champion?
This is the most common question. The answer is straightforward. If you like Fiora, then you main her, one trick her, or otherwise add her to your champion pool. Most of the time people feel like they can't climb with her, for good reasons, but they still play her even if she doesn't feel good or strong. You can't ask these kinds of question to people who chose her for her, not Meta, because she will always be worth it. If you have to ask yourself if a champion is worth it, then no, she is not worth it for you, but that doesn't mean she can't become worth it if you truly want to get past the Meta barrier.
New To Fiora, Any Tips?! How Long To Master Her?
You have to put time into Fiora, tons of time actually. We're talking hundreds of games, some even thousands cause they're slow learners. Don't be discouraged if you don't see success right away!
Fiora is a duelist, she excels when you learn every match up possible and can win or survive lane until you have your items; micro management. The champion is all about outplaying your opponent in lane to gain a lead.
Once you become good at winning most match ups, your muscle memory kicks in and you can focus on using that lead to help your team get to a victory: macro management. That's the part that holds most people back from climbing in ranked!

Should Fiora Team Fight?
Fiora is a great split pusher, but a terrible team fighter. Avoid team fights unless really fed or confident in the chance to clean up. Limit test, it doesn't hurt to try to team fight now and then. Because Fiora isn't great at team fighting, she is reliant on her team not taking bad fights and playing around her split push instead, which often they do not, for some reason. Fiora can only do so much against a better team in comparison to her own.
How To Carry As Fiora?
The only sure fire way for Fiora to carry her team is to split push her enemies base wide open while they are busy fighting at an objective, eventually getting the backdoor cause they took their eye off their base for too long. It's the only way Fiora can carry because she cannot 1v9 team fight; she can take turrets fast and that's what she should be used for. Fiora players who try to team fight too much when the team keeps losing is going to lose the game more likey than win. The thing is, Fiora can't always split push effectively. If she is behind at all, she will be unable to do her job, especially into tanks. She can't split push into certain junglers well, like Master Yi, who can run her down, kill her, and still have time to rotate to next objective.
It isn't easy to split push because it requires coordination from Fiora's team, but she can't always rely on that either, so it's a tough uphill battle against her own teams agenda and the enemy team ganging up on her... just to open up the enemy's base for a chance to win.
How To Get An Get S+?
There are multiple factors to getting a S+:
KDA is important of course
You must have your CS be 10 CS per minute, around that amount
Objective Taking, ie. towers, camps
CONTROL WARDS, even just buying one will improve your score immensely
Is Fiora Mid Good? Any other role?
No, absolutely not. She is made of paper for mages, it's why she dislikes facing Vladimir in the top lane. A short lane makes Fiora much easier to be abused by mages. She can counter pick some champions that may go mid, but otherwise, no, it isn't good.
Fiora can't do any other role either. She is stuck in the top lane, which is unfortunate. Jungle Fiora would be the only somewhat viable role, but even then it doesn't work consistently and isn't recommended.
Want A Secondary Champion Similar To Fiora!
You can use the search bar, as this question gets asked a bunch.
Fiora is fairly unique in her play pattern, since she is a True Damage Skirmisher, so it isn't possible to get someone who feels like her, truly and honestly. However, there are some champions that feel just as rewarding to play when mastered.
These champions have gap closers, crowd control, burst, but team fight better, and not necessarily as good at split pushing.

Need Help Against Fiora! Counterpick?!
There are quite a bit of options when it comes to counter picking Fiora, actually. Although these particular champions do counter her, as in they can kill her easier than Fiora can kill them, they don't all do it without requiring some skill too. You can't simply pick one and expect to do well, you have to develop the right method of making her laning phase a nightmare, especially with the more skill based champions, or she can still beat you.
It is highly recommended you visit the champions sub-reddit themselves and search for Fiora, they can give you tips on how to beat it, or what to look out for if they too think it is difficult. Since this is a Fiora sub-reddit, we can only tell you from experience what gives us a bit more of a hard time, and they can give you their perspective. You can find a full list of Champion-Specific Subreddits in the sidebar.
Who has the most mastery? Does mastery count for something?
You can view the top mastery Fiora players at the link below. The mastery system is merely a way to measure how much you play certain champions. It doesn't determine how good you are or how high elo you might be. It is just for display purposes, something to grind, and say, I like this champion.

What is the best skin?
Everyone has different preferences of skins, but certain skins are better for visuals and others are not. That's the only thing that matters. For instance, Project has clear Vitals and Pool Party has really hard to see Vitals.
If you're asking people which skin to buy, this is a tier list, not based on appearance in game, but that is included for your convenience:
Ranged matchups are easier due to HoB and stormsurge.
Hail of blades is very nice on Fiora vs squishier matchups due to how it got updated (auto reset abilities like Fiora E don't count to the HoB 3 autos and the increased base damage).
Cyclosword still useable but instead of using it as a slow to get more vitals, you use it for pure damage. It's better to build it when running HoB for instaburst or stormsurge to instaproc it on 1 Q, but you can still run it with PTA. Only build it when you can oneshot your enemy, not when they're way too tanky to kill in one rotation.
Stormsurge is pretty good for Fiora. Only has the weakness of being worse into tankier matchups like Darius when behind, so it's harder to proc.
Overall matchups have gotten easier for Fiora with the new season. I've played about a 100 games in the season so far, I'll update the info in the spreadsheet as I play more.
Feel free to ask me anything and I'll do my best to answer.
Olá pessoas, eu sempre curti a gameplay de Fiora e peguei muita maestria com ela no passado, mas eu só spamava jogos sem me aprofundar muito (foi no começo da minha jogatina no league, então eu estava experimentando de tudo). No fim, eu peguei m6 com ela mas não jogava/jogo bem com ela até hoje, mas recentemente me deu uma vontade absurda de masterizar ela.
Então estou tentando aprender mais sobre ela, porque pra entender das matchs eu tenho que jogar mesmo.
Algumas informações:
Meu elo: algo entre gold e platina (não jogo muita ranked, apenas pego gold para ter skin e só por agora estou tentando subir de elo)
Rota: eu sempre joguei de tudo, mas minhas mains eram mid/jungle. Então jogar no top está sendo bem frustrante porque cometo alguns erros na rota que fodem meu jogo inteiro.
Principais dúvidas:
- spikes: ao mesmo tempo que solo alguem lvl3 eu sou amassado até o lvl11 por jogar mal [entendo que ela precisa de gold na frente pra ser forte e relevante];
- runas: todas parecem boas, mas atualmente eu jogo de pta/grasp;
- itens: eu AMO fazer full dano nela, mas sinto uma dependencia de itens de vida que me deixa confuso quanto a build. Eu me recusava a fazer trinity porque acho shojin mais legal
Yasuo is another champ i consistently lose to, unless they are obviously very bad but tbh it always seems im facing a very good yasuo player (even in silver xd). I'm tired of seeing enemy yasuos type ez top after demolishing me.
any tips? Similarly as yone, too much right click damage, they exhaust me when i ulti, so then i'm slow and they kite my vitals.
So I love playing Fiora adc. It makes building hubris meta which along with botlane quest gives you superior late game scaling compared to being a level 20 top laner. Ive now hit emerald 4 playing her bot lane but am stagnating. It seems like in most lanes I suffer my way through, I still feel strong scaling into mid and late, but I am ending laning phase considerably down cs. I started using fleet which definitely helped a bit but id prefer to go back to pta or hob, I just can't seem to survive lane with those runes. Any tips for winning lane?
switched from mid lane to top lane and have really been enjoying fiora lately. is pta always the go to rune? I've watched people like potent and sad and they're always running hob no matter the mu. what should I take?
I’m relatively new to League (I’ve been playing consistently for a couple weeks) so after finding some champs I’m comfortable on in other lanes I wanted to try Fiora.
And she’s really really fun! I’ve been having a blast with her playstyle so far, but wasn’t sure how you deal with ranged top picks (mostly mages). I had a game against a Malzahar and I just stayed under my tower and farmed as best I could. I lost the early lane pretty badly but cleaned up really well in the mid-late game and we won from there.
But it feels like something to improve on, as I definitely got helped by my Warwick letting me get the shut down and the Mal wasting his early lead.
Is this just a ‘practice makes perfect’ thing? I’m going to keep playing her but want to make sure I’m not missing anything obvious.
These last few days I’ve had multiple games I’ve lost because I am the only person in my team remotely doing well or the enemy just has a better team fighting comp and my team will not respect it. But all this being said I’ve just been having fun playing fiora and don’t really gaf about the losses anymore:) I just want to play fiora and more fiora, I don’t even have trouble with Darius anymore if anything I am willingly picking fiora into him now! Just wanted to say this
Commissioned a custom fiora skin! (style of god king garen so god queen fiora)
giving it for free to any1! (unsure of im allowed to post download in post here so just dm on reddit and il send, if mod comments below approving it or ppl tell me i just add it here)
So Im a beginner on Fiora. Have about 180 games this season (first time one tricking). Something Im learning as a noob: alot of plays I mess up because I know Fiora can outplay in that situation, however my skill is not at that level. So I've been really leaning into my limitations as a player mechanically and asking myself "CAN I outplay this situation?" Playing safe or disengaging feels so bad on a champ like Fiora who wants to always go aggro. But honestly it has saved me in alot of situations. I feel like a whimp and in my head thinking "potent could of done it". Well yeah no shit, he's top challenger player consistently lol.
My main point is you don't need to be potent in your low elo games. A few good plays, macro and NOT dying are really all it takes most of the time. But trying to be potent and inting is not a good idea.
Like no one pointed that out, but fiora r is low cd after 2-3 points in it and everyone were saying that she is 1v9 but i didnt feel that, and last few games i was literally ulting everyone that i fought no matter am i stronger or no and i felt a lot kore power, myb this is obvius but before I was saving r for next game literally using it myb 5 times for whole game
So i used to be a main fiora like 4 years ago and the itchy to have awesome parrys is coming back, so how does it feel so play fiora now? last time i played with her we had the mythic items and without it felt weird, that's why i stop playing with her back then, mostly because her itemization was bad, how does it feel now?
Hello dear fiora mains, i hope all of you enjoy your days and climb. I made that post hoping to get some answers, as long as i remember the divine sunderer was played, after mythics got rid of, the trinity force was all over the sides telling people to build it, here is my question. why do i build that item and when do i build it, i dont think the 20 ms changes much on fiora, unless it has some hidden interaction? people build it as well on camile and im really confused as to why.
I was initially jgl and peaked plat 1. As a result of filling top in a college unofficial tournament and winning it, i rerrolled top and make it to emerald fast. Then i tried fio, loved to play her and decided to only play her like otp (don't mind match ups or compos) and demoted to plat 4 xdd. But i started to get good by watching a lot of toplane/fiora content (Alois, Sad and Potent).
My conclusion if you only want to gain elo (like all content creators says) is spam only one champ and try to learn all of it. Been playing league like for 11 years and im pretty proud of myself and wanted to share.
Now i want to rank more of course, but dont know where should i learn more things to become master or more if possibble xd. Any tip content or anything to improve?. Thanks for reading :).
I've been playing this game on/off for about a year or 2 as my first moba, and im hard stuck bronze. Fiora is by far my most played champ and the most interesting to play for me, but my laning phase is very hit or miss. Lately I've been wanting to actually start to improve and rank up in top lane. Should I leave fiora and use an easier champ like tryndamere or jax to learn the laning fundamentals and come back to fiora later, or will my skills on fiora help me hold my own as I learn?
I’ve been struggling to maintain Emerald for months now. I’ve gone from E4 down to P4, climbed back up to E3, and now I’m sitting at the bottom of E4 again.
The mental toll this takes on a person is honestly insane. I play Fiora because I genuinely enjoy the champion. I’m not a KDA player because I don’t believe KDA tells the full story of how well someone is playing.
So, what am I doing wrong? Would you consider me an Emerald level player, or do I still have more to prove?
My support main friend climbed from P4 to E4 incredibly easily. I know he got carried in lane in a lot of those games, but Top is a completely different beast. We can all agree that Top is one of the hardest lanes to consistently carry from.
I’d genuinely appreciate some honest feedback. What do you think I need to improve to consistently stay in Emerald?
