FIX FIDDLESTICKS.

{quoted}

Ya but there are so many champs that can do the same thing with more bonuses. Orianna has AoE ult and hers is a CC that does instant damage. Anivia's ult is a massive slow and you can cast it every few seconds. Malph's is a CC. Kennan gets a stun, and he is much faster. Liss, Brand, Amumu, Katarina, Ziggs, Karthus. They all do AoE but better (except maybe Ziggs, I feel like his ult is super dodgeable and it tickles). Fiddle needs items to make his have slow or keep him alive, while many others don't. So I don't think he needs a nerf. Quite honestly I can delete people so much easier with Anivia than I can with Fiddle.

What he gives his team in early game, they pay for it in late.

So with your example of Orianna, in a teamfight I'd prefer Fiddlesticks ultimate every time unless I have a Yasuo on my team. Fiddle ultimate popping in middle of teamfight is huge, and the radius is larger than Orianna's. The damage also is quite a bit higher. Anivia's ultimate is nice and I don't have much to say about that one other than that Fiddle's still deals more damage. Lissandra ult is strong but to me, it's not on par with Fiddle. Brand's ultimate is strong but the damage is, again, not as much as Fiddlestick's. As for Amumu's ultimate I have nothing to say for it, it has large radius, stun, and damage. Katarina's is easily taken out with a displacement or stun and Karthus ultimate can be canceled, spell shielded or Zhonya'd. The thing with Fiddlestick ult is that using Zhonya like that to dodge the ultimate is usually a huge mistake because the rest of your team will likely be running away, and the moment you are vulnerable again, the enemy team will pile on you. Karthus ultimate is very strong but while he is casting, he can't do anything else and is likely ulting from somewhere reasonably far from the teamfight so that he isn't attacked or CC'd.

And yes, Fiddlestick is not as big of a problem late game but he is still a HUGE nuisance. He will just constantly cast silence or fear and killing him will be more difficult than it should be. The only thing you can do to avoid this is either CC, silence, or instantly killing him.

well if you just let him drain a minion to restore his health then that's on you and not him. Fiddle is nowhere near a strong champion and actually needs helps. If you cannot handle a weak champion that is being played in a role he is not even suited for then i don't know what to say

Do you seriously think that I just sit there while he drains? No, toss a Q and if able, WEQ. Still doesn't matter, he heals more than I can deal damage for. If i took the shadow he would fear and silence me then walk away only to drain on another minion a few seconds later. So what do you expect me to do and you say "not suited for"? He fits mid just fine, better than you are insinuating.
