Farming
1.7Olaf

Olaf and Fiddlesticks farm at nearly identical rates in this matchup, with only a 0.2 CS/min difference. Neither champion holds a meaningful farming advantage, so lane dominance will come from trading and jungle interaction rather than CS leads.
Damage
994Olaf
829Fiddlesticks
Olaf heavily out-damages Fiddlesticks by 166 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights.

Fiddlesticks brings significantly more crowd control than Olaf, with 1.3 more seconds of CC per minute.

Sustain
