Wukong Matchups Overview

Wukong General information

Wukong tips and tricks

Wukong wins most early game skirmishes. Fight the enemy as soon as you hit level 2 and force them to blow their Flash.

As you need to get on to the backline to knock up the carries, in team fights try to flank the enemy and attack from the side rather than running directly towards them.

Do not team fight unless you have your Ultimate CycloneR as you will lack damage and CC which will make team fighting much more difficult.
