Fiddlesticks vs Ivern

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Prioritize a fast, full clear to reach level 6 before contesting river or objectives against Ivern.
Avoid early direct fights and invades until you have vision control and can leverage your ultimate's ambush threat.

Jungle Plan

Clear efficiently to hit level 6 quickly, then use (R) from fog for impactful ganks and objective control.
Contest Scuttle only when lane priority favors you to avoid getting caught by Ivern's utility and counter-ganks.
Track Ivern's pathing and counter-jungle camps when he invades with team support to deny his utility scaling.

Danger windows

Avoid isolated river fights early, especially before level 6, as Ivern's root and knockup can set you up for counter-ganks.
Be cautious around forced smite fights at dragon and Rift Herald without vision control to prevent losing objectives.
Low-health clears expose you to Ivern's utility and potential counter-invades; reset or retreat if spotted.

Early game

Start with a full clear to maximize early tempo and avoid risky early river fights.
Only contest first Scuttle if nearby lanes have priority to support you.
Use resets to sweep for wards and deny Ivern vision before dragon or Rift Herald setups.

Power spikes

At level 6, your (R) enables high-impact ambushes that can turn fights or secure objectives.
Ivern's power spikes come from his (Q) root and (R) Daisy knockup, so respect these when engaging near him.
Your very high clear speed allows you to pressure objectives before Ivern can respond effectively.

Win conditions

Convert your faster clears and level 6 ultimate into vision denial around key objectives to force favorable fights.
Use fog of war and (R) ambushes to create pick opportunities and snowball lanes.
Deny Ivern's camp pickups and force him into reactive play to limit his utility impact and scaling potential.
