Fiddlesticks vs Rell Counter Pick

A losing 36.6% win rate over 112 games on patch 16.13.1 is a steep deficit, and the mechanism sits in Rell’s passive. Break the Mold adds magic damage to her attacks and abilities while stealing armor and magic resist on hit, which means a champion who deals only magic damage watches his own 30 magic resist shrink as the fight goes on, and hers grow.

The rest is a chain of interruptions. Shattering Strike damages in a line, breaks shields and stuns; Ferromancy: Crash Down knocks enemies up as she dismounts and hands her a large shield; Magnet Storm pulls everyone nearby toward her and keeps dragging them. Any of those ends Bountiful Harvest before the execute damage arrives and blanks a Crowstorm that has not fully landed. Her stat line is not the problem, since 620 health and 30 armor at level 1 reach only 2,388 and 98 at 18, behind 650 and 34 reaching 2,452 and 113.9, and she is the slower champion at 315 move speed to 335. Her attack range is 175, so every tool she owns requires arriving first. That gap in speed and the 480 range Fiddlesticks holds are his levers: refuse to stand where a lane engage reaches, and make her walk. Kits: Fiddlesticks and Rell.
