To dominate the bottom lane and eventually the game, Miss Fortune needs a support that can help her ramp up through the early game and take over in the latter stages of her matches. And the best supports for Miss Fortune are the ones that can lock down opponents while she dishes out tons of damage with her powerful kit.

Best supports with Miss Fortune in League of Legends

The best supports to pair with Miss Fortune in today’s meta are Leona, Blitzcrank, Thresh, Nautilus, Rell, and Taric. This is because Miss Fortune requires plenty of peel and spacing so she can fire away unimpeded, and you’ll want either a strong front line that can soak damage or an enchanter mage that can set her up while keeping her safe. This way, she can keep her distance to get the most out of her powerful ranged spells.

Leona and Miss Fortune

Leona and Miss Fortune make up a classic bottom lane pair in League that have great synergy together across their entire kits. At level two, the two champions already bring a ton of kill potential since the Radiant Dawn can dive right towards an enemy carry with her Zenith Blade (E) and keep them still with Shield of Daybreak’s (Q) stun.

And as soon as you hit level six, you’ll want to look for an all-in engage. As a Miss Fortune main, one of the most welcomed sights you can see on the Summoner’s Rift is Leona’s Solar Flare (R) dropping onto a group of opponents since that leaves them defenseless against her ultimate ability, Bullet Time (R). Together, they can make plays, burst down entire groups, and end team fights with a few key presses.

Tip:

Keep in mind when you’re playing as Leona that you’ve got to commit to going all-in. Leona doesn’t have a great chance of surviving when fleeing a fight, so stay with Miss Fortune and give it your all when it’s time to fight.

Blitzcrank and Miss Fortune

Miss Fortune’s Make it Rain (E) and Double Up (Q) combo is extremely efficient when it comes to bullying and poking enemies in lane. Moreover, you gain immense kill potential once you hit level six and get your hands on your ultimate.

Because of this, Blitzcrank is one of the strongest supports to pair with MF. If he grabs an enemy with his Rocket Grab (Q) and then follows with a crowd control chain with Power Fist (E) and Static Field (R), Miss Fortune will have plenty of time to unleash her combo.

Thresh and Miss Fortune

Aggressive supports that can single-handedly lock down an enemy champion are strong when paired with Miss Fortune. Once Thresh lands his Death Sentence (Q) and Flay (E) combo, Miss Fortune should be able to deal a considerable amount of damage.

Tip:

If you’re playing as Thresh, keep in mind that, despite his menacing appearance, Thresh is definitely a support character. This means that he’s pretty squishy and can die fairly easily if in the wrong situation. For Thresh to be a big assist to Miss Fortune, you’ll want to make sure you avoid going into any fights alone.

It won’t always be enough for a kill, but hitting this combo should give you a window of opportunity to claim kills or at least bully the enemy bot lane out of position. Thresh’s Dark Passage (W) is also a perfect escape tool for an immobile ADC like Miss Fortune. And with Thresh’s buffs last season, he’s a really great champion to pick in solo queue.

Nautilus and Miss Fortune

Nautilus is not only tanky but also provides plenty of opportunities for you to engage with his combos. Using Dredge Line (Q) into Riptide (E) and then Depth Charge (R) creates a series of events where the enemy is pulled toward Nautilus, and they’re then slowed, knocked up, and stunned.

At the same time, Miss Fortune can use Make It Rain (E) to slow the enemy and use Bullet Time (R) to chip away at their health. And because Nautilus is tanky, he acts as a nice buffer between Miss Fortune and the enemy.

Rell and Miss Fortune

Like Leona, Rell’s ability set is tailor-made for Miss Fortune since she not only has a ton of crowd control to lock down her opponents for some massive damage, but Miss Fortune can also set up Rell for some easy wombo combos with her Make it Rain slow (E).

The true wombo combo, however, lies with Rell’s game-changing ultimate ability, Magnet Storm (R). This ability pulls enemies toward her in a radius and continues to drag enemies toward her for a few seconds afterward. As a result, any champions that don’t have mobility spells or Flash will be stuck next to Rell while Miss Fortune melts their health bars away with Bullet Time (R).

Taric and Miss Fortune

Taric is the definition of a versatile support. With a heal, shield, stun, and an ultimate that makes you invulnerable for a few seconds, it’s hard to find a more diversified support. Luckily for Miss Fortune mains, these features make him also a perfect partner for the ADC.

Depending on the bottom lane matchup, Taric and Miss Fortune can either become an explosive, aggressive duo that takes over the game from the get-go or provide her with some much-needed defensive value. All in all, they blend really well together.

But their true prowess comes alive in late-game skirmishes. With Taric’s utility, it’s easy for Miss Fortune to just pump out damage without worrying too much about enemies. The key aspect is the support’s ultimate. By becoming invulnerable, Miss Fortune has a short window where she can go all-in, and with three to four items under her belt, her damage is almost unmatched.

These are the best supports for Miss Fortune, but playing as them in combination with Miss Fortune won’t guarantee victory. Keep an eye on your positioning, coordinate with your Miss Fortune, and hopefully you’ll be able to find your way to victory.
