Also, for a much easier time early game, just take Wukong against mids that are made to kill other mids like:

Kassadin

Fizz

Zed

Khazix

LeBlanc

..etc.

You know how much Kassadin's Q does to a Wukong with flat MR blues at lvl 1?

33 magic damage, assuming he did not start a Doran ring or Amp Tome.

What's he going to do? Auto-attack you? Farm? Pff.. Ok. Oh, he's getting the jungler to camp? Pffff... Ok. He uses R to get away from your harrass? Pfff, your crushing blow damage is unavoidable like Darius's R with flash~. His silence sphere even has a relatively long travel time, so you can always stealth before silence. You can also E to an enemy minion back towards safety, since the range is soooo long.

Your combo, even if used suboptimally without making use of the buff, debuffs, is more than enough to obliterate their health much more than they will to you.

Also, going mid gives you an excuse to build BT, Sheen, Hexdrinker as your first items, and not have to build Armor. Notice how there is NO ITEM that gives Armor and AD in stats.

Another category of mid champions I'd take Wukong against is very low mobility and highly unreliable champions. Like Brand. Save E to dodge Pillars by jumping onto his face and W to block his linear-collison fireball. Harrass him all you want. Just be careful using Decoy when he uses R because it will bounce in between you and your decoy.

I wouldn't take Wukong mid against Mid champions that have great utlilty or AA-damage though. It's much harder. Or high-sustain/lock-down champions.
