The Good ol' scarecrow.

Fiddlesticks Fiddlesticks is seeming a bit lackluster right now. his jungle phase is good , drain is easy to not die with but his ganks could use some work as they are 99% ult dependent. mid could use a change to his E (rework it?) as it isnt very damaging poke unless you can hit your drain and get the triple bounce, but it costs half your mana early and is hard to get in range with unless they're melee midlaners. and dont even say build item 3165 on fidddlesticks. waste of gold. (just my opinion) plus maxing your E makes you VERY vulnerable to ganks, as it tends to push out the lane and you have no defenses without drain. they should make his passive movement speed build up the longer he stays still, i think( up to double what it is now over 5 seconds?) this would make him more viable to play in roles other than jungle. thoughts/tips for me? Proud fiddlesticks mid main here with 100k points and a LV6 :) Just thinking out loud here! [slayer-jinx-catface]

actually , for a succesful gank you need to R and Q the first person you see... also E to silence them so they can't flash-skills and .. they take a lot of dmg but still it's kinda hard early game because fiddles is too squishy

Nah, Fiddle has plenty strong ganking. Just work with your team to make sure the wards are clear. The speed boost he gets from a bush is nice too.

Fiddle's real problem imo is that his Drain feels like a garbage move just there to make him a jungler. It has a short enough range for just about anybody to escape and it works counter to his ult since the first thing people do is run away.

the truth level is over 9000 pretty sure that someone just said "hey fiddles ult looks like it wood be good in ganks make him a jungler hurr durr" and riots like ok, here have generic damaging/health-restoring ability. [zombie-brand-facepalm]

Now chill out w/ the Rito hate. I've played Fiddle since back when Talon was new and he had plenty of OP moments and matchups. After all, he was so good that they brought him Support because he didn't need that many items to be good and his Drain was an ez way to shut out aggression or crush counter-aggression.

They had to nerf him because he had a lot of unfun in his kit. He's just another champ that they gotta get around too.
