Wukong vs Rek'Sai

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Wukong must manage mid-game teamfight impact by reaching level 6 quickly to leverage his (R) knockup for river and objective fights.
Focus on farming efficiently early and avoid risky invades before (R) is available to contest Rek'Sai's high early pressure.

Jungle Plan

Path toward lanes with strong follow-up to maximize (R) engage impact around dragon and Rift Herald setups.
Contest Scuttle only when lane priority and vision deny Rek'Sai safe tunnel paths for counter-ganks.
Use clone deception to bait Rek'Sai's counter-jungle attempts and punish her high early invade reliance by timely counter-invades.

Danger windows

Rek'Sai's early three-camp path and tunnel ganks create high risk before level 6; avoid isolated river fights.
Low-health clears expose Wukong to Rek'Sai's high mobility and knockup; reset or recall when vulnerable.
Forced smite fights around early dragon or Herald can be dangerous if Rek'Sai controls vision and tunnels safely.

Early game

Prioritize a clean first clear toward level 6 before contesting Rek'Sai's early aggressive three-camp path.
Secure first Scuttle when nearby lanes have priority to avoid Rek'Sai's tunnel ganks and maintain river control.
Avoid early river fights unless your lanes can follow and your clone can bait Rek'Sai's knockup cooldowns.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks strong engage with (R) knockup, enabling Wukong to turn river skirmishes and objective fights in your favor.
Mid-game item spikes increase dueling power; leverage these to contest dragon and Rift Herald more aggressively.
Rek'Sai's early three-camp into gank spike demands respect; delay extended fights until you have (R) and lane priority.

Win conditions

Convert level 6 engage into river and objective control by coordinating with lanes that can follow your (R) knockup.
Use clone to bait Rek'Sai's cooldowns, then counter-invade or secure Scuttle to deny her early tempo.
Scale into mid-game teamfights where Wukong's disruption and dueling excel, leveraging vision and lane priority to force favorable fights.
