Statistical Matchup Analysis

Meta staple Lux (6.4% pick rate, 8th most popular out of 51 Support champions) rarely faces off-meta Fiddlesticks (0.7% pick rate). However, even uncommon picks can cheese unprepared players, so basic matchup knowledge provides valuable insurance. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Arcane Comet + Manaflow Band combination (60.6% win rate) plus optimal itemization Luden's Companion, Stormsurge, Mejai's Soulstealer, and Sorcerer's Shoes boosts your chances from 49.3% to 77.8% - potentially game-changing.

Vision advantage: Despite losing the direct matchup, Lux's superior warding (0.81 wards/min, 40th among supports) can swing team fights and objectives in your favor. Damage doesn't equal wins: Lux outputs more damage (578 vs 548/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Strong individual performance: Lux maintains better KDA (2.40, 30th place vs 43rd for Fiddlesticks), but loses the matchup overall. High KDA without wins suggests difficulty translating individual advantages into victory conditions.

How to Beat Fiddlesticks as Lux (Support)

Despite the slight difference in effectiveness, in the Lux versus Fiddlesticks 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 Lux deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Fiddlesticks deals primarily magic damage (91.56%), additional magic resistance may be required.

An important advantage of Lux is superior vision control (ranked 40th among supports) (versus 47th for Fiddlesticks), which provides better map control and safety for the team in important map areas. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.2 versus 2.4) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Lux Support versus Fiddlesticks Support matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Lux player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Fiddlesticks 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.

Lux tips:

  • Lux has great zone control abilities. Try to set up Lucent Singularity to prevent an enemy's advance or escape.
  • If you have trouble landing Prismatic Barrier, remember that it returns to you after it reaches max range. Try positioning yourself to hit your allies with its return trip.
  • Lucent Singularity is a great scouting tool. Try throwing it into brush before walking into it to check for ambushes.
