Track: Vayne's E — Condemn (20–12s cooldown). Wall-stun. Decoy it.
Read from Wukong's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Vayne.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Wukong | Vayne's tiny early health pool folds to your Level 1 engage. |
| Level 2 | Wukong | At Level 2 she still has no way to survive your Crushing Blow combo. |
| Level 3 | Wukong | Level 3 you have your full combo and she has no wave control to escape. |
| Levels 4-5 | Wukong | Levels 4-5 your burst keeps deleting her whenever Tumble is down. |
| Level 6 | Wukong | Level 6 Final Hour adds damage but no survivability, so your all-in still kills. |
| First item | Wukong | With your first item you burst her before her Bolts matter, keeping you ahead. |
| Two+ items | Vayne | Late game her true-damage kiting and Final Hour finally out-DPS you 1v1. |
You dominate the entire early game: Vayne is one of the squishiest laners in the game and has no wave control, so your Nimbus Strike engage plus Crushing Blow simply deletes her whenever her Tumble is down. Levels 1-3 are free kill windows if you punish her step-ups; don't let her farm safely.
