Miss Fortune vs Aphelios Counter Pick
Matchup Summary
What the Data Means
Difficulty ratings rarely map onto results this cleanly. Miss Fortune is rated 1, the floor of the scale; Aphelios is rated 10, the ceiling, because The Hitman and the Seer gives him five Lunari weapons with only two in hand at a time, Weapon Queue System dictates what arrives next, and Phase swaps between main-hand and off-hand. Over 3,090 games on patch 16.13.1 the simpler champion returns 52.2%.
Their raw statistics are almost identical, at 550 attack range each, 55 base attack damage each, 325 movement speed each, both dealing physical damage on Mana, so the matchup is decided by what each kit does from the same starting position. Double Up gives Miss Fortune a bullet that also damages a target behind the first, and both strikes apply Love Tap, which pays bonus physical damage every time she attacks someone new. That combination pushes waves and punishes a paired opponent with no setup required.
Aphelios lacks a consistent early answer because his answer depends on which weapon is currently equipped, and the ones that trade well up close arrive on a queue he only partly controls. The late-game numbers converge, with 2,325 health and 93 armour at level 18 for her against 2,334 and 97.4 for him, so the early advantage is what the sample is measuring. Trading into him while a weak weapon is equipped is the whole plan, and that opportunity repeats every few minutes. Kits: Miss Fortune, Aphelios.
