Favour timeline — the windows in Fiora's game plan

Read from Fiora's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Tryndamere.

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1FioraYou are an elite level-1 duelist and he is weak with no Fury banked — Q a vital and chip him for free.
Level 2Even / skillYour level-2 Q into E lands a guaranteed-crit vital before his crit chance or Fury exist — your biggest pre-scaling punish.
Level 3TryndamereHis crit chance climbs and his Fury fuels Bloodlust heals, so he sustains back the damage you chip faster than you can pull ahead.
Levels 4-5TryndamereMocking Shout's slow and his crit autos let him kite your Lunges, and nothing in his kit is immobilizing so Riposte never returns a stun.
Level 6FioraGrand Challenge's four vitals plus the heal zone out-sustain his auto DPS — if you commit while Undying Rage is on cooldown, this is your kill window.
First itemTryndamereBerserker's plus his first crit item and lifesteal flip the lane — his crit autos now out-DPS and out-heal your vital pattern.
Two+ itemsTryndamereUndying Rage survives your all-in at 1 HP for 5s and his E-plus-slow kite out-duels you — you cannot close him out past two items.

How to beat Tryndamere as Fiora: the early game

Levels 1-2 are the only part of this lane you truly own, so press them. He has no Fury banked and almost no crit chance yet, so Q a fresh vital and walk out, then at level 2 land Q into your E (Bladework) — the second, guaranteed-crit auto on a vital chunks him harder than anything he can answer before he scales. Don't bother holding Riposte to parry: Mocking Shout only slows and his E (Spinning Slash) is just a dash, so neither is an immobilizing effect and you'll never get a stun back off W in this lane — use Riposte purely to eat a big crit auto. Keep him starved of Fury and deny his scaling.
