Fiddlesticks is a pretty outdated champion and has a lot of things about him that just feel clunky to use:

~ Drain. Very outdated and there is a way to give Fiddlesticks a heal, play off his scarecrow aspect, reduce gold reliance as a jungler and support, and have his healing where he feasts off your fears! More on my idea about this later.

~ More emphasis on Fiddlesticks' ability to fear his enemies, make them constantly afraid, and my idea is turning his long duration fear to his passive and his abilities use micro-fears which the first fear duration can be a lot longer if he lands an ability on an enemy champion within X seconds when he is unseen by the enemy team making the enemy team be especially afraid of Fiddlesticks when he is hidden by the fog of war.

~ Fiddlesticks is pretty one-dimensional in the way he plays, I want to increase his skill expression greatly so one Fiddlesticks player can play him their own way to another Fiddlesticks player. Skill expression is differentiating play styles between players, it is NOT about whether the champion requires a lot of skill or little skill to play as, this also increases the level of variation between games since the games are less obviously of how it plays out.

~ Between both jungle and support Fiddlesticks, his Dark Wind (E) feels absolutely terrible to use since jungle may not clear the camp properly and single camps just suck with no bounces, while support Fiddlesticks hates the crow randomly jumping to the minions and pushing the wave or putting spell thief on cooldown because it killed a minion. I like the random element to it, but not how it is implemented, so I am thinking it should be in a controlled area where the crow randomly bounces around in and damages enemies every time it passes through them, with the first pass always move straight away from Fiddlesticks, hits its "wall", and randomly bounces everywhere.
