Fiora is one of my main champs, and yet I think she honestly is a weak/bad character in a lot of ways.

She runs into a lot of matchup problems up at top lane and can be very lackluster later on if she doesn't snowball. Sure, she has damage, but other champs can consistently outperform Fiora with less effort and contribute more to the table in general.

I think a lot of people mistake Fiora's glaring weaknesses as "skill," when in reality you are just making up for her shortcomings for trying at least 5x harder than say a Riven.

Again, I consider Fiora to be one of my main champs. I do love her as a character, but I feel that she is underwhelming in too many areas and needs some help to even out her viability.
