okay, i'll try my hand on this countering business as well without trying to go all 'counter-picky'. I assume when you say squishy, u mean, either a range DPS or a mage. Also, i disregard teemo because he will counter her kind of hard.

U should actually lose if you cannot kite Fiora (but the same kind of goes for any bruiser against a range champion). True, she has lunge which will allow her to dash to her, but as a squishy range champion, this is basically your best shot in winning. Most Fiora players I see will rank up Lunge late, so there is a lot of time where u can harass and bait it out. If she cannot lands hits on you while she use Burst of Speed, she won't get the bonus movement speed to trail u.

Another tip, don't do small fights because that works for Fiora favor. Her innate passive is a long duration, so Fiora player basically wants to get that 4 stacks and then back off, generally. She can only really put up a lot of DPS within 3 seconds, but after that, she's just doing basic attacks without any thing to back her up. So, if you out DPS her in a long fight, you might stand a chance in that situation. When u see her do her W, don't attack. In fact, do your best to bait it out. Her mana is somewhat low so you made be able to force her to run out of mana.

If you see her use Burst of Speed, do whatever you can to not be let her attack you for that short 3 second duration. Do any CC abilities or escape move your champion have. If you can avoid fighting her in her empowered state, afterwards, she is actually weak. Make a agreesive move while it's on cooldown.

After level 6, never stay at lane with low health. She will tower dive you with ease thanks to her ultimate.

Once your teams start grouping up in 5v5s, she actually shouldn't be that much of a problem. She will mostly jump you because she needs kills fast, so play like how you would against any type of bruiser/assassin and stick close to your team. If she builds glass cannon, one hard CC and a decent focus by either the carry or mage should take her out of the fight.

Attack speed reduction always help regardless her high attack speed boost, and armor never hurts. Good choices if possible is, FH, Omen, GA, and hourglass. Preventing your death by any means makes her a lot weaker. . Of course, if you're stuck 1v1 by yourself against her, chances are high that you will most likely lose the fight since she excels in that area.

Well, that's my opinions on things. Pretty sure it's not the best advice, but this is coming from someone who doesn't actually play her a lot.

I hope it helps.
