Fiora vs Jayce

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Fiora must manage Jayce's ranged poke and avoid extended trades before hitting her item spikes.
Prioritize scaling into side-lane duels where Fiora's mobility and vital procs outmatch Jayce's burst.
This is a snowball vs scale matchup; Fiora should survive early poke and leverage her superior dueling later.

Trading pattern

Take short trades by dashing with (Q) to accessible vitals and immediately backing off before Jayce can retaliate.
Hold (W) to parry Jayce's hammer form engage or knockback, punishing predictable crowd control.
After Jayce uses hammer (Q), punish his limited escape by extending trades with (E) empowered hits.

Danger windows

Jayce is most dangerous when his empowered (Q) through (E) poke is available; avoid standing in skillshot paths.
Be cautious when (W) is down, as Fiora cannot parry Jayce's knockback or burst.
Avoid extended fights before level 6, as Jayce can disengage or burst with hammer form abilities.

Early game

Use early waves to farm safely behind minions and avoid Jayce's empowered (Q) poke through (E).
Wait for Jayce to commit hammer form before using (W) to parry his knockback or burst.
Avoid forced trades before level 6 when Jayce's poke and burst are strongest.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to force extended duels and chase Jayce through multiple vital procs for healing.
After first dueling item, pressure side lanes to exploit Jayce's weaker extended fight and force isolated duels.
Respect Jayce's first damage item spike where his poke and burst become more punishing; avoid unnecessary trades then.

Win conditions

Win side-lane duels by proccing vitals with (Q) and saving (W) to counter Jayce's key crowd control.
Pressure Jayce after your first item to force isolated fights where your mobility and healing outscale his burst.
Deny Jayce the chance to snowball by surviving early poke and scaling into superior splitpush pressure.
