Fiddlesticks vs Olaf Matchup Summary

The Fiddlesticks vs Olaf matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 7 recent matches analyzed, Olaf wins with a 71.4% win rate compared to Fiddlesticks's 28.6%, giving Olaf a 42.9 percentage point advantage. Olaf dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights.
