Based on 15 recent matches analyzed, Karma wins with a 53.3% win rate compared to Fiddlesticks's 46.7%, giving Karma a 6.7 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Karma controls the early laning stage, but Fiddlesticks outscales as the game goes longer.

Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.
