I would say that there are somes wrong assumptions here:

1/ Wukong lands all the damage of his ulti (no interuption from CC)

2/ Wukong's not supposed to be an assasins.


 * 1) 2 is the point where people who don't play Wukong thinks about him. He is a bruiser type who can build tanky or build damage depending on the situations, yet he can do better by playing assasins to kill the squishy targets. So, the best play style of Wukong is burst damage to bully the weak (think Khazix or Talon), i.e. assassin.


 * 1) 1 can be done only if there is 1 target and he/she doesn't have any CC to interrupt Wukong ulti (4 sec), nor some dash to run away. But this is unlikely now that the meta is mostly about dash/blink plays, and more co-operation.

So after Wukong land his first knock-up he can be stunned by that champion and his ulti just deal 1/4 of the damage.

Or some Morgana dark binding and his cool ultimate is rooted for 3 seconds.

Just think about numbers alone, Nunu's R is the coolest thing ever since slice bread: BIG numbers and BIG AoE range, right? But in reality you hardly can land that damage.

Talon or Katarina can escape quite easy after full combo, but Wukong is vey vulnerable then. He only relies on 1.5s decoy to run away - if not being rooted/stunned from CC in those 4s.

And Wukong could not activate spells nor items in 4s either (Talon can activate Hydra or YoumouuGhostblade or any others to boost damage - not to mention his 15% amplification from E and 10% additional from passive).

Moving while using ultimate? Fiddlesticks has better numbers, better range engage, Zhonya for safety. Kennen also has 200% MS boost to engage, AoE stun, Zhonya for safety. Morgana walking like a boss, all the CC are meaningless to her BlackShield, she can also stun/root peope and Zhonya when neccessary.

Whilst the best Wukong can do in his ultimate is to pray no CC coming and enemy not flash away. (Khazix/Corki just jumps away and laugh)
