Fiddlesticks vs Amumu

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Focus on maximizing your fast full clears to reach level 6 before Amumu and avoid early river fights where he can capitalize on his (Q) engage.
Prioritize vision control around dragon and Rift Herald to leverage your (R) ambush threat and deny Amumu safe objective setups.

Jungle Plan

Path for full clears and reset with sweepers before contesting dragon or Rift Herald to maintain vision dominance.
Use your superior clear speed to trade cross-map camps if Amumu shows on the opposite side, denying his jungle tempo.
Prioritize objective control by coordinating with lanes that have priority before invading or contesting river fights to avoid unfavorable skirmishes.

Danger windows

Avoid isolated river fights before level 6 where Amumu's (Q) engage and (R) area lockdown can trap you.
Be cautious during low-health clears as Amumu can invade and force smite fights you are unlikely to win.
Respect lane states where Amumu's lanes have priority, increasing his counter-gank threat and limiting your invade safety.

Early game

Execute an efficient full clear to hit level 6 on tempo, then use fog of war to set up impactful (R) ganks or objective fights.
Avoid early invades or river skirmishes unless your lanes have clear priority and can follow your plays.
Secure Scuttle only when nearby lanes have priority to reduce counter-invade risk from Amumu.

Power spikes

Reach level 6 quickly to unlock your (R) channel ambush, enabling game-changing ganks and objective fights that Amumu must respect.
Amumu's power spikes come with his (Q) and (R) crowd control; respect his engage potential especially around grouped objectives.
Your very high clear speed is a power spike early game; use it to outpace Amumu and secure tempo advantages.

Win conditions

Convert your level 6 power spike into vision denial around dragon and Rift Herald to force Amumu into reactive plays.
Use your fast clears to counter-jungle and trade camps when Amumu commits to a side of the map.
Leverage your (R) ambush from fog to initiate fights on your terms, securing objectives and snowballing teamfight control.
