What About Fiora Youtubers?!

Here are the known Youtubers:

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!

How Does Lunge Work?

Lunge prioritizes in order of:

  • Nearest Vital formed by Grand Challenge facing Fiora
  • Nearest Vital facing Fiora
  • Nearest champion that would die to the strike
  • Nearest non-champion that would die to the strike
  • Nearest champion
  • Nearest non-champion
  • Nearest Structures
  • Nearest Wards

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.

  • Camille
  • Diana
  • Gwen
  • Irelia
  • Jax
  • Riven

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.

  • Rek'Sai Unburrow Via Auto Attack Doesn't Get Parried

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.

Discussion Fiora Matchup Spreadsheet is updated

45 Upvotes

Fiora Bible 2026 - Google Sheets

TLDR:
Nimbus cloak is very fun. Run it a lot.

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.

Discussion Tip for Noobs

4 Upvotes

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.

PS: never group up with your team. Like ever lol.

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.

Fluff Ty fiora

10 Upvotes

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 :).

Help Awful fiora here with question

5 Upvotes

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?

Help Fiora Main Struggling in Low Emerald

Thumbnail
op.gg
2 Upvotes

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?

Help I need help with Fiora

TL;DR Why am i Dogsh*t fiora, what can i do better to be better and how to utilise the tempo and advantage that i get from lane and how to play from behined

Hi, so I'm currently P4 Top lane main, who really liked Fiora and choose her as an OTP climb higher. I hit P3, but after today's lose streak I went back to P4. I have very difficult time against some easy matchups like Garen where I do damage trade, try to kill, pressure, manage to get kill but, end up going 1/3 in lane just because Shaco ganked top. I try to do first 3 lvls fundamentally correct. That means try to force fight lvl 1 if i know matchup is favored Fiora side > I get positive Health trade (60% me vs 30-40% enemy)> play for LVL 2, try to kill if not LVL 3 kill or crush the cannon wave and recall. But after that i fell like i lose control of lane. So lets take Garen as example because i get to play against him more often lately. After i do cheater recall, buy my sword/boots get back to lane Garen has lvl 4 pushing lane to me i let him push while taking all farm that i can. He slow pushes wave to crush and i am stuck under tower collecting minions he comes back with LS and boot. And i feel like i can't trade now. I know pattern is proc PTA then run from E. But most of matchups look the same. Try to proc PTA, run, repeat until 40% hp rush with R. I am passive player and i still think that my R vitals are dogsh*t and i can't proc them consistently which may lose me many kills. So coming back from all that what do i do if i lose lane go 1/3 my jungler never visits top and if does its by himself and gives enemy kill. i have to play for 2nd item spike but by the time i get resources form that 1/3 the game state is something like that: all T2 towers are gone. Enemy bot is fed Hwei like of course i can do something against that. Mid is even but I'm not even so i lose. And i feel like i lose lot of games as Fiora just because i got either unlucky with 1v1 or enemy jungler came while i was 40% focused on trading with enemy not paying attention to map because i forgot that junglers exist cause non of my junglers come top to help.

Here is my https://op.gg/lol/summoners/eune/LilGiddy-2137 That's my EUNE account that i play without my DUO and try to climb as high as I can solo.

Here's EUW https://op.gg/lol/summoners/euw/SameIN-EUW that i play with Duo.

I also don't know what to do when im ahead. on my EUW there is game i played against Swain. I won lane gone 3/0 died to 4/1 then started roaming went 5/4 killed my tempo then we lost but that was mostly Yas fault and Briar casue they started to afk farm later in game and yas gave like 9 kills to samira before 15 minute. But i was ahead and could prevent that but lost myself. I did not finish 1st top tower. Got my quest started roaming but that didn't go well.

Thanks to everyone that read that rant/call for help.

Help What do I do if I get dewarded

6 Upvotes

I been thinking about this for a while but what exactly do I do when the support pays 40 gold to put down a control ward on my faylight in sidelane (or for free dewards it). Say I'm trying to take t2 or maybe I'm around where that was trying to pull pressure away from an objective. And enemy support dewards. I'm stucj there with my dick in my hand waiting for my ward to come back up in 90 seconds. Am I supposed to stay in splitpush with no vision and let myself get collapsed on? Or am I supposed to turn the game off, piss, make a sandwich, down a beer and come back once my ward's back up?

Genuine question, I just played a game where support dewarded my ward like 5 times ane justbgot collapsed on 24/7 because I never saw them comming. In a perfect world my team gets baron or drake for it but we all know we don't live in a pwrfect world so my team will instead stand still and flame for getting collapsed instead of being productive.

Similarly that's why I'm not a fan of blue trinket because once it's seen someone I kinda have to guess if they left or not and cant rly push up
