Mages are played much less than traditional supports

What traditional supports?

ShaolinToilet1 votes

https://na.op.gg/champion/statistics go down to pickrate then to support. If you don't believe op GG you can also use league of graphs.

Brand is still up there.

Specifics aside, Fiddles silence hurts regular supports just as equally as mages since the two classes are ability reliant.

Brand is ranked 11th I would hardly call that "up there"

Ok, ruining the fun of the original post.

Yes any time someone claims anything about mage supports being picked over traditional supports I have to save the day

I applaud your dedication.

They are trolling, do not feed the trolls.

With the current oneshot meta, a ranged targeted hard CC is basically a guaranteed kill.

Let's not forget that W was improved, and thus using him for objectives/all-ins is better now too.

but he was nerfed a lot tbh idk if he can return bot

i think he can, but it won't be the fiddle of 2014 that had 3 sec silence and 3 sec fear

Back? When did he leave? Been doing it the past couple of seasons on and off. Had fun using him against enemy WW since his rework for peeling, etc.

it disappeared from competition since the range nerf and duration nerf but people still continued to play him with the duration nerf that was compensated by a big mana cost buff

he is so squishy... he won't be able to counter any ad jungler like renga/kha zix

WoonStruck2 votes

Being squishy isn't a huge deal when you have an instant targeted hard CC.

You must not have been here for the last round.

I use courage of colossus on ARAM. Not sure how well it would work in SR, but it provides him with a ton of survivability.

I've played him to amazing success as a support. Bot laners don't know how to deal with the crow, and they often die to it. My only concern is that it might get nerfed.

i trollpicked him a few days ago because i didnt know what support to play and i ended up carrying the game xdd it can be fun af to play but against certain matchups/teams its just impossible to make it work lul

lol he isnt back, that is not why he was viable as support it was the bouncing crows poke.

if you ever see a sona support in your game just pick fiddlesticks support and watch your enemy bot lane cry. seriously he counters her so hard.

I thought they killed support fiddle when they removed 3 second fear

Bârd1 votes

Cool.

I mean, it's not the ability I hoped would get a range buff (cough drain), but yeah this is pretty sweet.
