Nerfing a champion with obvious strengths and weaknesses, and clear counterplay seems incredibly pointless, considering he not Warwick (jungler that synergises, with new items/meta, requires rebalancing). Why? Just the thought process involved when nerfing a champion. Is it win/ban rate? IS there some variable in champion development that cause Fiddlesticks to be nerfed before junglers currently considered stronger?
It's about time they nerf fiddlesticks. He has no counterplay, and warrants cleanse to avoid a flash terrify.
He is a strong jungler at the moment. But it is a bit surprising that low played champions get nerfed before more popular ones. Well not really surprising I guess. If you agree with the favouritism theory that is.
May I know what is that weakness? Onclick fear, onclick silence, onclick drain? I actually would consider his ult counter-able if it didnt have 1000 range and could jump through wall.
Interrupting drain is NOT the solution, 50% mid, 50% jungler and 100% adc do NOT have a hard CC. Running out of tether range is the only true 'counterplay' and this nerf accomplished that.
Interesting, any Riot employees care to comment (perhaps those who work with Balance Team, maybe)?
He needed this change lol.
You can't tell me you haven't seen them incredibly retarded long ranges on tether when you play fid?
You guys saw all those games in LCS where fiddle sticks rekts... it was amazing. Wait never happens ? I wonder why.....
