Overbuffed Fiddlesticks is OP

Fiddlesticks is OP now. Not only are wards limited, but they gave fiddles a huge buff by increasing his movement speed with his ultimate?

Talking about removing counterplay...

Fiddles is in a nice spot currently. You know cc cancels his ms right?

You're a few patches in the past. It was around 6.10-ish where he was truly ridiculous. He's pretty fine the way he is now imo.

On the powerscale of 1-10, Fiddle is probably a 6 right now. He is pretty close to balanced, especially considering the actually broken and OP champs on the Rift right now. Plus he is HARD countered by invading junglers.

Fiddlesticks is in a great place right now. Sure, he has fear, and his ult, but you must understand that when he blows those two spells he's committing pretty hard to killing you, and he doesn't haven any "oh shit" buttons like other junglers. Furthermore, his movement speed boost is only for like 1.5 seconds, and requires him to stop moving entirely for another 1.5 seconds before it triggers. What this means is that he's excessively easy to notice when he's going to gank you due to the set up required. Here's how you counter him. Ward your high danger bushes. Then, proceed to stay around your warded bushes and don't position youself near terrain and bushes that you have no vision to. It's as simple as that. When you position near your visible areas, you essentially are forcing Fiddlesticks to come into your sight if he wants to gank you, giving you the advantage to run like hell. Additionally, the silence of his bounces 6 times, and will repeat bounce between 2 targets if it can't find any other viable targets. What this means is that you need to stay near minions when he's nearby, and don't ever get caught out beside a single ally, or it will do a ton of damage to the both of you. All in all, Fiddlesticks has the potential to be a terror, but unlike most junglers, he relies heavily in his own positioning and the bad positioning of his enemies to do particularly well. This is an easily exploited weakness of his, so if you manage to play with it, you won't be prey to him.
