Fiddlesticks' gameplay needs more skill requirements

While this might not be the most popular opinion, I feel like having 3 direct-target abilities really takes all the fun out of playing as/against Fiddlesticks. You want to dodge his attacks like other Champions? Sorry, you can't; he never misses. And as a result, he's forced to have values that make him inferior to a lot of the high-tier cast. And that's to say nothing of how CLUNKY he is. I'd go so far as to say he's the most cumbersome Champion in the game.

Since Fiddlesticks is on the list for an eventual VGU, will this be addressed?

Why does everybody think that point and click shouldn't exist?

He is so ult reliant. If you know he's in the game you can expect his every move.

That's just another problem: he's predictable to the point of being boring. That's not fun. That's ANTI-FUN.

I've been a Fiddle main since season 3. He's in the worst spot he's ever been. His core items have been nerfed into the ground, and the jungle isn't kind to him anymore either. At no point in a game is he doing relevant damage. He's gutted and really needs a rework.

I been fid main too and he does get nerfed in any and all way all the time. but the 6.9 mage patch had a buff in it; though i'm long time in admitting it. There was also hard nerf to drain. but the E bounce to drained target mechanic is a big buff it makes easy guaranteed proc of thunderlord's decree. makes level 2-5 firstbloods much easier than prior. can take half a health bar now. here are 3 examples queued up a few seconds prior. Kind of ruins the fun of not seeing it coming but oh well :P https://youtu.be/ZETCIDHrjSM?t=4m20s https://youtu.be/JRsYj8vHwsw?t=4m55s https://youtu.be/xa-LSzYIbe8?t=3m

yes, it's a nice trick for a quick level 3, but I feel he suffers more than most champions from the current jungle meta. unless he snowballs like crazy, he is out-tanked, and out-damage, for that matter, by most other junglers. His damage feels pretty irrelevant right now.
