Can we expand upon the way champions scale other than just pure damage/healing?

Riot started to go down this road a bit with Champions like Sona, Lulu, and Nami being able to scale in how well they support, but I think we can expand upon this to better balance other champions.

Examples.

Fiddle: Terrify - Fiddlesticks Fears an enemy for 1 / 1.25 / 1.50 / 1.75 / 2 (+0.2 per 100 AP) second(s)

If Fiddle averages 500 AP in a game he would have a Fear duration of 3. But if they try to abuse 0 AP Fiddlesticks support tank they would have the measly 2 second duration.

Annie: Pyromania - After every 4 ability casts, Annie's next offensive ability will stun all enemies it damages for 1 / 1.25 / 1.5 (+0.1 per 100 AP) second(s).

Once again this harms abusive no AP builds, but rewards the Annie who managed to play skillfully and snowball.

Your proposed changes would create a frighteningly powerful scenario for any burst mage with CC effects. Fiddlesticks, Annie, and anyone else who rushes AP combined with a stun is already very, very strong.

Sorry bro - it'd be Insanely OP. THAT being said, It would be awesome to see a mage item that has low AP but has a passive effect that makes all 'stun and slow' effects last like.. 10-25% longer. THat'd be a bit more balanced.

Well obviously you would take power form other parts in the kit. It's just a way to make characters, especially mages, stronger without just giving them a billion damages. Which tends to get them nerfed because no one likes getting 100~0 in under a second at range. (See Veigar.)
