Fiddlestick’s fear should behave like Cassiopeia’s ult
Hallo, I haven’t seen anyone make a post about Fiddlestick’s but the title makes sense. If you look at him you should be feared. If you don’t, then you won’t get feared. The current fear on his q is very unfair to play against since it is an easy single target ability and cannot be avoided when cast which is why he is doing so well as a support. Fiddlestick’s already has another powerful single target cc which is his silence and doesn't need his fear to be one as well. Though Fiddlestick’s needs a rework, but for now Fiddlesticks needs a few simple changes to make him more risk reward and more meaningful, while also providing counterplay without affecting him as a Jungler either.
Fiddle’s Q change
CD & fear duration: same
CC application: Single target------------>New: Aoe cone similar to Annie’s w.
Spell conditions: None----------->New interaction: enemies that look at Fiddlestick’s when he uses his q are feared. Enemies that look away from Fiddlestick’s are slowed for 30/35/40/45/50% decaying over 1.5s
Cast animation before applying fear: Instant--------->0.5s
Reasons for change: • Gives the opponent more opportunity to work around his fear • Adds a new interesting playstyle • Makes him more terrifying to more than one enemy
Fiddlesticks could also get some tweaks to his passive too. The idea of movement speed is good on Fiddlesticks so that he stick to his target but it doesn’t make sense to stand still for it.
Passive
Condition: Stand still -------->New interaction: Fiddlestick’s gains bonus movement towards enemies that face away from him during combat.
Bonus movement speed: 25/30/35/40% --------->15/20/25/30%
Movement speed duration: 1.5s --------->Until out of combat.
Reasons for change: • Based around fear, not standing still • Synergies with new q and ult • Helps Fiddlesticks chase and stick to his target longer and more reliably which Fiddlesticks tends to struggle with
Also it would be cool if Fiddlestick’s ult could fear minions like other champions (eg Urgot, Darius, Aatrox) to make him even more fearful.
What do you guys think?
