Ok first off lets take her abilities.

Duelist-Passive: regen on hit.

-This passive BLOWS. It not only incredibly bad, its pretty much worthless. Why? Because it has supremely bad regen. I mean really, really bad. It doesn't stack for minions.
So you know how warrick gets that nice minion regen? Think that only 1/10 and its not per hit, its per second.(literally).

Lunge:
-This move, is quite useful. But should never be done over 1 till you later. Why? Because the most damage it has is 180 per hit.(able to use twice). Thats 360. Now i know your thinking "but it gets you close to an opponent". True......but at what cost?
1. Fiora is not tanky in the least bit.
2. If you lunge for initiation you willy most likely die.
3. Overall damage wise its horrible in comparison per rank.

Riposte: Attack dmg increase and can reflect an auto attack back dealing magical dmg.

Your anti-ad skill. AWESOME RIGHT? No.... Its trash. Why? Because:

1. You aren't going to win 1v1 auto vs anyone since you are one if not the most flimsy AD with absolutely no escape mechanism whatsoever, or regen.
2. Any proper AD will have at least a lil bit of MR to counter the heavy AP champs.
3. The base AD bonus......sucks. Its great for the first level but then goes up by 5 the next. You basically gain some bonus AD which isn't bad, but isn't something to shout home about either. 50 AD is nice, but compared to passive attack speed its kinda shotty.

Burst of speed:

Awesome increase AS and totally kickass increase in movement speed.......for 3 seconds. It resets if you kill but... for 3 seconds.

Do i need to say more? Its nice but its for 3 seconds. Meaning any escape mech will work. So goodbye nice shiny attack speed/movement speed buff. You last so short that rarely if ever will you actually beat anyone else in dps. You know for working for 3 seconds, unless you build AS its pretty much only 2-3 hits more than your regular auto. Not only that, it doesn't reset on minions, so yeah, goodbye cs.

Blade Waltz(ultimate):

Like master yi's alpha strike only it does.......more, has a super long c/d and whats this: is reduced for attacks against the same person.

While this also seems pretty great, its pretty weak sauce in comparison to most carries or ad champs ult's.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In summary: this champion has less utility, less damage, a HORRIBLE passive(seriously, its pretty bad when its not even above +15 regen at lvl 18), and is an extremely painful character to build AD as her anti-minion abilities are zilch and vs champions she is easily done in.


Riot, please try harder next time. If you still allow champions like tryndamere to run rampant, at least make the new champions "competitive" in a sense or at least make a high skill high reward.
