I'm Ok With the 50g Cost Increase to Starting Support Items
Especially since they're decreasing the combined cost for tier 2 to compensate, and that the goal is to make supports start with 2 pots instead of 3 to reduce support sustain/lane influence before first back.
However, I'm not ok with this if you do not nerf support fiddle as well. His level 1-4 poke is already bad enough to deal with. Yes, you can avoid getting hit by multiple crows, but one of them about twice per minion wave is bad enough.
I would either (one of the two):
- Reduce the base damage of his E by 10, and add some extra damage to minions and monsters to compensate for solo lane/jungle fiddle.
- Up the mana cost of his E significantly (and lower the mana cost of his W a bit to compensate) so that he actually has to manage his mana.
(I think fiddle's fear (Q) is most of his problem as a champion (as well as his point and click silence), but that can probably only be changed once he gets reworked, since nerfing it would probably tank his general viability (as much as I would like that, that wouldn't be fair).
and
which is fairly cheap when you consider the fact that might aswell be full build.
