Headmistress Fiora

After saving up for two months, I finally grabbed Headmistress Fiora and honestly it's become my go to skin after 120 games. The Academy theme gives her this strict teacher vibe that somehow makes landing those vitals feel even more satisfying.

The Q dash feels incredibly smooth compared to base Fiora, and I swear the animation cancel into auto attack flows better. Her W parry has this ruler slap effect that's actually clearer to track in teamfights than Project Fiora's flashy shield. But what really sells it for me is the ult. Those golden vital marks pop off the enemy champion with perfect visibility, especially during those messy dragon fights where everything's going crazy. Just yesterday I tower dove their fed ADC and could track every vital perfectly even with minions everywhere. The cleaner animation on her E crit probably saved me there too since I could time the reset perfectly.

Compared to other Fiora skins like Soaring Sword or IG, Headmistress sits in this sweet spot where it's not too flashy but not boring either. Is Headmistress Fiora worth it? For 975 RP, absolutely. It's not pay to win or anything, but those visual clarity improvements on her ult vitals alone make split pushing and 1v2s way more consistent. And the recall where she grades papers while sitting on her sword? Pure tilt material after you diff someone in lane.

My experience with Headmistress Fiora convinced me that sometimes the simpler skins are the best for climbing. If you're a Fiora main looking for something clean that won't distract you during intense outplays, this is the one. Just don't blame me when enemies start banning her after you pop off too many times.
