The Runic Echoes change on PBE is another indirect nerf to Fiddlesticks

Fiddlesticks Counter Picks, Builds & Stats | Patch 7.12

Mana recieved on proc lowered from 18%-12%

I'm not good at putting my thoughts in writing so i'll just say that i would like fiddlesticks to get a mini rework instead of the constant bandages needed to keep him above a 50% winrate with mains. Lowering sustain on drain so he can't facetank people and putting more unreliability into his basic spells would be a good start so that he can recieve buffs to his base stats and clearing.

Its a nerf to jungle Diana as well.

At the same time Talisman and its upgrades get increased mana regen while in jungle, does that really make that big of a difference then?

Eh, disagree. Fiddlesticks's biggest mana issues are with farming early game between blue buffs, so he cares a lot more about the buff to Hunter's Talisman than the nerf to Runic Echoes. Honestly, I don't even build Runic Echoes most of the time because he spikes so hard with other items (Zhonya's, Protobelt). Once he gets some levels in W and E, his farm is actually pretty efficient if you know how to control the E bounces.
