the Grand Duelist

Fighter

Assassin

Tier B Top

Fiora, the Grand Duelist, is a fighter and assassin champion that is easy to pick up. Across our 590 analysed ranked games, Fiora is mostly played in Top (100% of its games), with a 50.0% win rate in that role: tier B among Top champions (#16 of 48, ranked by win rate). Fiora's damage is mixed (60% physical, 5% magic): stacking a single type of resistance is less efficient against this champion. 35% of that damage is true damage and therefore ignores resistances. Win rate varies with game length: 52.9% in long games (over 35 min, 68 games) versus 48.2% in medium-length games (25 to 35 min).

How to play and combo preview

Fiora is a duelist who reveals her opponents' weak points: hitting them heals her and gives her speed. Lunge dashes her in, Riposte parries all damage and crowd control targeting her before counterattacking, Bladework raises her attack speed with a critical strike, and Grand Challenge reveals all four weak points.

The trade

Q › E › AA AA › AA AA

When: An enemy is within Lunge range.

Lunge dashes you onto the weak point, Bladework gives attack speed with a slow then a critical strike.

The parry

W › Q › E

When: An enemy casts a decisive ability.

Riposte parries all damage and crowd control targeting you, then thrusts to slow; it stuns if you parried an immobilizing effect.

Laning phase

Hit the revealed weak point to heal and gain speed. Keep Riposte to parry a decisive ability: it blocks all damage and crowd control.

Common mistakes

• Using Riposte without knowing which ability to parry.
• Ignoring the weak point: it is your source of healing.
• Casting Grand Challenge on an enemy accompanied by many allies.

Riot's official tips for playing Fiora

• Thanks to Duelist's Dance, Fiora excels at quick trades. Use the Move Speed boost from striking a Vital to escape unscathed or set up for the next one.
• Grand Challenge allows Fiora to take down even the most durable opponents and then recover if successful, so do not hesitate to attack the enemy's front line.
