Favour timeline — the windows in Fiora's game plan

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

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1Even / skillYou both have a real level-1 — your Q-Vital poke trades with his early kit, but his W clone fake can already bait a wasted Riposte, so it is genuinely even.
Level 2WukongHis Q (Crushing Blow) armor-shred and Nimbus Strike come online and let him win the short trade before your E crit fully scares him.
Level 3WukongWith Nimbus Strike, Q armor-shred and the W clone burst he wins the burst exchange you can't sustain, and the decoy keeps baiting your parry.
Levels 4-5WukongHe chains Nimbus Strike gaps and armor-shred trades while his clone blanks your commitment — your Lunges cannot punish him cleanly yet.
Level 6FioraGrand Challenge marks all four Vitals and your Riposte turns his Cyclone knockup into a stun — the heal zone wins the all-in.
First itemWukongHis Black Cleaver plus stacked Stone Skin armor let him out-bruise you in any extended fight.
Two+ itemsWukongStacked armor and an item lead let him answer your Vital chunk and out-bruise you unless you already snowballed the early game.

How to beat Wukong as Fiora: the early game

Wukong's early game is the clone fake — his W dashes him to invisibility and leaves a decoy behind, so a panicked Riposte parries nothing and you eat a Nimbus Strike into Q for free. Don't burn W on the clone or a stray auto; hold it for his real Nimbus Strike dash engage or his Cyclone later. Your one clean window is Levels 2-3: land a Q-Vital, then E (Bladework) for the slow and the guaranteed crit before his Q (Crushing Blow) armor-shred makes your trades feel weak. Last-hit at Vital range and refuse to extend once his Nimbus Strike is up.
