I HAVE ISOLATED THE CAUSE OF THIS BUG, SO IF YOU DON'T WANNA READ ALL THIS ORIGINAL POST CRAP. SCROLL DOWN

  • Please remember to upvote so this stays on top untill its fixed <3

Been playing a lot of fidd Lately, but today was one hell of a first for me. was clearing my Raptors and then proceeded to try and ult on top of the Lucian and Ahri pushing our mid lane. and the moment i hit ult it went off. shot me to the destination. and then had fiddle flying around like he was Jesus for a bit. totally caught me off guard. i didn't even have the reaction time to throw any other spells out.

but E Was on Cooldown. drain had just come off cool down a few seconds prior. the only thing i can tell is i killed a small raptor with a auto at the same moment i pressed my ult almost? not sure if that would have any cause or relation to the issue.

~~the items on me at the time were a stalkers blade, Needlessly large rod, boots, pink ward, and a biscuit that was being used before the ult cast. and was about half duration left in use when i casted the ult. ~~

This is a pretty crappy .Gif of what happened. but the game replay was saved on Op.GG If you wanna take a look at the game yourself. http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=untoldfears The start point of the replay on OP.GG is pretty much right before the ulting insta cast. gonna jump into a custom game tho and see if i can reproduce this right now. will update if i find anything else out.

  • UPDATE 1: I have managed to reproduce the instant cast Fiddle sticks ult. ~~while consuming a biscuit ~~and the instant i auto killed a little raptor by pressing ult there is no channel time required. going to try other ways now to see if this is doable in other instants

  • Update 2: have confirmed that the Biscuit has nothing to do with the bug. as i just instantly ulted after killing a small raptor with a auto attack. going to now test this on other mobs and lane minions

  • Update 3: So far it seems the only requirement is that you cast your ult the very. VERY MOMENT your auto connects and kills a jungle mob or a minion. (have gotten it to work on small raptors. small wolfs, caster minion, and red buff small creatures. or w/e they're called

  • Update 4: Tried to reproduce this instant cast effect without smite as a summoner spell. it still works. makes me curious if to this is a fiddle sticks issue or. a channel skill issue?

**TL;DR / Final Conclusion ** FiddleSticks can** Instantly **cast his ult and ignore the Channel time if you are to attempt to cast it within a millisecond of a window frame of his auto attack animation when last hitting a minion or jungle creep.

Rito Please Fixarino,

THIS IS EASILY ABUSE-ABLE AND CAN BE A COMPLETE GAME CHANGER. SPECIALLY IN LANE. I DON'T LIKE SAYING THIS BUT PLEASE DISABLE MY STICK HUSBAND. AND FIX HIM WITH DUCT TAPE
Feel free to buff him a little too while you're at it <3

This seems like the same bug that made instant recalling possible. I wonder if it works on more channels.

Someone should try TwistedFate's Ultimate or Pantheon's. This might affect every single channel in the game.

Edit: Zac's slingshot might be able to do it too. I'd be interested to see how it would affect Velkoz or Warwick though.

Is this related to the instant cast recall bug during the summer of 2015 I wonder?

Is it reproducible on any channel ult champion?

I found a YouTube video of this glitch from about a month ago. It looks like this has been in the game for a while now Fiddlesticks . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWgWgjPxJlU

If it works on minions, I think they should leave it in... it would make lanesticks way stronger, maybe strong enough to be actually viable as a laner.

Maybe just mention it in the ulti's tooltip?

The ultimate seems pretty instant, but is it dealing any damage ? You animated picture looks like it's actually doing no damage at all.

I'm pretty sure the bug has to do with him auto attacking the raptors. I only suspect this is the case because there are multiple auto attacking bugs live right now.

Like the fact that when you're moving after cast it looks like you are still channeling. Go back to the Cornfields Fiddle you're drunk.

Why the fuck haven't they given us a sandbox mode?... Shit like this is extremely difficult to test for when it's a 2minute+ cooldown.

damn this is actually really easy to abuse wtf

got it on my second try

I repro'ed this bug first try. Get 6 then head to the raptor camp. Three autos will nearly kill the baby raptors, then, while your final auto attack is mid-flight, hit R. You'll instantly land wherever your cursor is, ult active.

If this bug works on minions and other camps besides raptors, then the ease with which this bug can be exploited effectively makes Fiddle's ult broken. Anyone could abuse this.

Even with this bug as the normal behaviour, Fiddle wouldn't be playable atm, so its K.

It also happened with on LotPK. While dashing to the Poro King, I targetted the area close to him because their were 3 enemies grouped and it immediately went off.
