r/Wukongmains

So I’ve been playing Wukong like nonstop for the last few days, absolutely loving the champ. While my win rate has been high I feel like I am definitely not playing him even close to his peak. Should I be top damage? I feel like I have improved working in as many Qs as possible in team fights but dont really ever have high damaged output overall and will be like 4th/5th damage every game. When we win I’ll get praise because I seem to engage well and use the knockup to win fights but the few games I’ve lost with similar numbers I’m absolutely torched by team. I like the bruiser build more than the lethality one, even with bruiser I feel like I still die pretty fast if they have multiple range/ap champs.

Really enjoying Wu in the jungle but was curious if there’s any one tricks that people enjoy watching? Most guides I’m seeing on YouTube are Sawyer JG and FZ frost and those guys just spam content without really mastering any champion

Against AP the champ is dogsh!t. Since Riot has buffed the AP junglers meta, it's time for compensatory buffs to Wukong

Here are a few recommendations:

1. Give his Ult 3 charges
2. Make his passive gain armor and MR
3. increase all his base stats by 5% (He literally is a monkey before the ult)
4. Reduce W cd by 2 secs each level

All these are reasonable buffs to help Wukong find a respectable place in the AP jungle meta 😊

yes the pick rate is low, only 400+games for gold + elo, but eclipse 1st item has a 55.83% wr over 53.27% of tri force. and in some specifc elo, eclipse rush has a 60% wr (bronze, 58.72% in gold, 56.16% in emerald, 60.32% in diamond, 57.45% in master)

I feel like wukong Q R has such a high ad ratio (Eclipse 60ad vs tri force 36ad), and the recent dmg % max hp passive dmg buff of eclipse, and wukong E AA or EQ would proc eclipse shield for 150 value, n eclipse cheaper, n cleaver streak gage give more ad, it looks very solid to switch over.

Sorry if this is a repost I am new to this sub. I have been playing wukong for some time, and I've always thought using the ult for knockup then cancelling it early to use q and e before pressing w for the double ult is the most optimal damage but I've watched a few high elo wukongs use ult for the whole duration every time. Is there a reason for this? It always feels like the whole duration does less damage than your normal abilities.

As we all know, Wukong’s E used to deal AD-scaling physical damage, but after his rework it became AP-scaling magic damage. Now that Classic is out and many people have had the chance to play the old version again, would you want to see this mechanic return?

Would you be willing to lose one charge of R in exchange?

I believe Riot’s philosophy is that if a champion gains something beneficial, there should be a reduction somewhere else to compensate. For example, Wukong’s passive gives him bonus armor and regeneration, but his base armor and regeneration were heavily nerfed to account for it.

I think a large portion of Wukong’s power is tied up in his double knock-up. If we were to bring back an AD-scaling, physical-damage E, it could give Wukong a better way to scale and deal meaningful damage into the late game, while still keeping the core mechanics of his current ultimate with a single charge.

It would also give us a more meaningful trade-off: we gain stronger scaling and damage through E, but lose the second R charge.

What do you guys think? Would you trade the second R charge for AD-scaling physical damage on E?

I recently picked up wukong and he has gotten me to my highest rank so far, it may be because im in low elo and everyone is just trash but he is super fun and op it feels like to me, is he in a really good state rn or is it because im in low elo i can just abuse everyone with him?

If you get Wukong in Aram classic, theres a chance you might roll BONK! Augu.

It improves your Q and makes it aoe-ish.

Best part about it are the sound and visual effects

Whoever designed it made it super fun. You can just run around spaming Q Saying "BONK!" Out loud every time it hits (if youre not doing taht youre getting a serious damage debuff).

Super fun!
