While statistically Leona is slightly stronger than Fiddlesticks as support, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage in this matchup. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.
The magic damage that Leona deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Fiddlesticks deals primarily magic damage (92.10%), additional magic resistance may be required.
An important advantage of Leona is superior vision control (ranked 9th among supports) (versus 51st for Fiddlesticks), which provides better map control and safety for the team in important map areas. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.1 versus 2.6) suggests they are less effective in team fights.
Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Leona player to maintain constant pressure on Fiddlesticks, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
