Hey you can't win them all. Actually thoerycrafting question, based off jungle Fiora. Not a very good jungled compared to WW, Shyvana, and Yi, but that feral flame. Effective on her or no? I say yes because she has an attack speed boost and ult that applies on hit effects. That damage with a stacked feral flame could hurt.
The point of the game is to have fun. Just ask Ironic about our 1st game together when I was top Olaf against Rengar. I believe one of my statements was, "Come here Rengar, my axe wants to penetrate your skull." Now if only our Ashe knew the word initation, and our Braum was smart.
*eye twitch* I know that you did NOT just compare my lovely Fiora to that piece of trash, Warwick. Alright, let me break this down for you, because Fiora is my favorite champion to jungle as when my team does not need a tanky or CC-heavy jungler and I have been elected into that role. This isn't theory-crafting. It's tried and prooven through numerous games.
Fiora most certainly ranks up there with the junglers that you mentioned. I'd say she's got slightly slower clearttimes than Yi, but faster than warwick. Also, comparing anyone to Shyvanna just isn't fair. That girl can tear through the jungle with a 50+% uptime AoE, a double-attack that applies on-hit, and... Whatever the hell her fireball does these days. Armor debuff? Percentage damage? They've changed that thing several times. I don't know anymore.
Anyway, you do NOT want to build a Flare on Fiora. The Flar takes too long to build up and it requires dedication to farming your jungle. Fiora works best as a ganking jungler, which means your farm won't be as high. You want the Elder Lizard stone as Fiora. Why? Because the very next thing that you're going to build on her is a Tiamat. That's your core as jungle Fiora - Boots of Speed, Spirit of the Elder Lizard, Tiamat.
Once you have these things, combined with your speed steroid, your clear times can shame even Shyvana. It goes like this: Lunge onto big monster - pop Burst of Speed - auto-attacks are very fast and are dealing AoE damage - because that AoE damage is considered physical, your elder lizard is dealing true damage to the whole camp in conjunction with your AoE. Combined with Fiora's naturally high attack stat thanks to the built-in bonuses of Riposte (which I max first), camps melt in seconds.
The same tactics are true in teamfights. Once you have your tiamat, followed by your Ravenous Hydra, all of that AoE damage plus true damage will destroy a teamfight if your enemies have bunched up. Following the same rules as above, replace *pop Burst of Speed* with *Cast Blate Waltz* and watch their team fall apart.
