Statistical Matchup Analysis

Lulu dominates the meta (4th most popular, 9.1% pick rate) and regularly clashes with Janna (3.6% pick rate). Understanding this common matchup forms the foundation of consistent gameplay for one of support's current powerhouses. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Electrocute + Cheap Shot combination (77.3% win rate) plus optimal itemization Moonstone Renewer, Redemption, Ardent Censer, and Ionian Boots of Lucidity boosts your chances from 48.1% to 70%+ - potentially game-changing.

Vision deficit: Struggling in both the matchup and vision control (0.86 vs 0.97 wards/min) demands defensive warding and heavy jungle coordination. Outclassed across the board: Janna leads in both matchup win rate (51.9%) and damage (299 vs 251/min). Lulu must seek alternative win conditions through macro play and team coordination.

How to Beat Janna as Lulu (Support)

Despite the slight difference in effectiveness, in the Lulu versus Janna matchup as support, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage. 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 Lulu deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Janna deals primarily magic damage (77.81%), additional magic resistance may be required.

Consider the excellent vision control demonstrated by Janna, ranking 9th (versus 31st for Lulu) in ward placement among supports. This means the opponent provides better map vision for their team. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (3.3 versus 3.1) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

Key aspects of the Lulu Support versus Janna Support matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Lulu player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Janna player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.

Lulu tips:

  • Glitterlance can be fired at odd angles depending on where your cursor is - Moving your cursor closer to Pix and Lulu will change your area of effect size considerably.
  • Consider casting Help, Pix! on ranged attackers for the Pix boost and Wild Growth on Tanks or Fighters for the added initiation power.

Playing Against Janna

  • Save an interrupt ability for when Janna uses her ultimate.
  • Listen for the charge up sound on Howling Gale in case Janna is trying to hit you with it from off screen or from brush.
  • Janna's at her strongest when buffing another ally. If you can harass her ally, it will weaken her ability to fight you.
