Read from Kennen's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Fiora.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Fiora | Her W can parry your very first Q or E and stun you back, so you have no safe way to start a mark chain at level 1. |
| Level 2 | Fiora | With a second point and her Q-dash up, she parries your poke and rolls a vital before you can stack a third mark for the stun. |
| Level 3 | Fiora | Her level-3 Q-Q-vital combo out-trades your two-spell mark trade and your fragile body can't sit in the extended melee she forces. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | It's chip-and-respect — you keep a max-range Q poke edge but she owns every all-in window her dash and parry are up for, so it nets even. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Maelstrom stun-locks her out of dashing and vital-rolling, but she can W the channel to break it, so the 6 all-in is a coinflip on her parry, not yours. |
| First item | Even / skill | Your Alternator/Rocketbelt R-combo can blow her up, but a parried R or E flips it into four vitals on you — the burst race is genuinely even. |
| Two+ items | Kennen | Two items plus Zhonya's let your AoE R and E-disengage finally kite her dash and out-team-fight a single-target duelist, the one window your magic out-scales her. |
Levels 1-3 are hers, not yours. Every spell you throw to start a Mark of the Storm chain — the Q poke, the E dash-in — is a target she can W-parry, and her parry stuns you mid-cast and refunds her cooldowns. So poke ONLY with max-range Q at the wave, never step into a position where an E-engage looks tempting, because she is waiting to parry it. Your body is fragile and her Q-dash plus vital procs chunk you faster than your two-spell mark trade chunks her.
