Win through macro: Miss Fortune takes the matchup (51.95%) despite falling behind in CS (7.46 vs 7.84/min). Your victories come through roaming, team fighting, and map pressure rather than 1v1 lane dominance.

How to Beat Lucian as Miss Fortune (ADC)

While statistically Miss Fortune is slightly stronger than Lucian as ADC, 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.

Key aspects of the Miss Fortune ADC versus Lucian ADC matchup

Miss Fortune tips:

  • Miss Fortune ramps up speed if she hasn't recently taken damage. Avoid getting hit to move very fast.
  • Use Double Up on the furthest enemy minion if enemy champions are hiding in back; it will bounce to them for lots of damage.
  • Make sure to utilize Love Tap while Strut is on cooldown to maximize the active's availability.

Playing Against Lucian

  • Lucian has strong burst, but little sustained damage.
  • Lucian cannot change the aim of The Culling. Take advantage of this by avoiding the angle of the bullets.
  • Piercing Light does not give Lucian extra Attack Range. He still needs to find a target in range to line up his shot. Avoid Piercing Light by anticipating the angle Lucian will choose.
