Citric says “Fiddlesticks farms really quickly but does not duel you well. Try to be mindful of where he can ultimate from out of vision. That is the only thing you need to worry about.”
Ir.Defender says “He got an Annoying kit, but himself is not the problem probably his team follows, you still can 1v1 him just if there is no one nearby. keep the Q knockout to disable his Heal Drain and you are good to go.”
NixLychee says “He hard outscales you, so you should focus on 1v1 fights, although he can sustain through some of your damage, you should have the upper hand in skirmishes, and you will probably get more early objectives. Don't let him fully channel his W on your, it's like half of his damage in 1v1s.”
Insightful says “fiddlesticks works in the same way as amumu but his ganks are a lot stronger, his clear is faster, and he can have more impact than you in fights, the only thing going on for you here is that you can win 1v1 with enough items”
LordGrox says “A slightly problematic matchup as he does have very high amounts of CC and counterplay against your engages. Mercs might be a good idea.”
Smartest2 says “Fiddlesticks is a fairly easy matchup. He doesn't really counter-jungle much. You can even invade him at his red/blue if you're feeling confident. Just wait for him to use his w or e on a camp before engaging and try and use your q to disrupt his drain.”
Kocykek says “Big damage output, especially on teamfights. Try to stop him channeling, throw him out or stun him after engage to don't let him do full damage combo.”
KamiKZ says “Fiddle is very annoying he doesn´t get low on hp when clearing his jungle because of his w - healing and you are not able to kill him because of his q - fear, I recommend ignoring fiddle and focus on your laners instead unless fiddle uses Q on the jungle camps (I recommend evoling R in this match up)”
KebabGames says “He clears very fast and is difficult to 1v1 if you don't have an hp advantage or conqueror. You should try and shut him down before he gets level 6 and reaches the late game since he will be better in teamfights.”
Justkb says “Still not bad for Darius, make sure you don't underestimate his drain if you don't have your E up, and take early trades with him if you can. If you fall behind early executioners will help!”
limeia says “Fiddle ne vous dérangera car c'est un jungler faible contre vous qui vous donnera le temps de chercher votre 6 facilement car il en a autant besoin que vous”
MiningRicK says “Fight him early, he can´t do so much. Try to come lvl 6 earlier ( I know not that easy) so you can stomp him more and more because when he is lvl 6 his ults are always good in teamfights.-”
Very Rxre says “Easy matchup. Invade or start opposite side in his jg. kinda like evelynn, you just want to mess up his early and delay 6. champ is less oppressive as evelynn tho and you can deal with him easily after 6 as well. ”
Insightful says “fiddlesticks has a good clear and very strong ganks and teamfighting around objectives, as a jungler he doesn't really represent a threat, but it's hard to win teamfights vs him ”
sonminh says “Always go AP into Fiddlesticks. AD is almost impossible to kill him and his ult will almost always kill your clone. Probably good to go blue trinket into him to watch for his ults.”
BlackFalcon2005 says “there is now way for you to get to him without losing half your heath before you get to him. After that he can just cc you and heal again.”
Karasmai says “This champ falls under hard category because his OP early farming gives him a lead + his W sustain makes him impossible to solo without form. Once you get form he will always have A strong advantage in fights and without due to his ult. The way you play around this for Red is rush MR like most typical AP matchups and Blue you rush Edge of Night. The playstyle will rely on heavily warding + forcing when his ulti is down. Make sure you’re farming a lot because Fiddle will tend to farm a lot early and only look to fight mid-late so you can build a HUGE cs lead. Also he will tend to solo drakes you can give him the first 1 or 2 if his bot-mid have prio but if not you may contest.
”
Pusi Puu says “You win all ins every time and can just run him down in almost every stage of the game. Try to track his pathing with a raptor ward and invade him. Later on make sure to predict where he wants to ult and use your ult to scout him out. Run around with full ferocity to cancel his fear when he engages with ult onto you.”
KhaZix Mains says “[4/10] The first thing to take note of is that he can remove isolation with his trinket so don't get baited in without having that in mind. His clear speed is also something to watch out for so be sure to warn laners if he's able to arrive before you. His CC in the forms of a fear and silence shouldn't be underestimated especially with them maxing Q now.
There are opportunities where you'll have a level advantage on him but be unable to burst him in time due to his high armor per level and zhonyas itemization alongside his vast CC.
R evolve can help in this matchup to dodge his fear but your primary focus should be on picking him off before he gets to use his ult and not letting your team get snowballed in 5v5's from his ultimate. You can minimize this risk with proper warding and pings. ”
Arfreezy says “Last Updated: Patch 11.14
Jungler Type: Farming Jungler
Fiddle is a scaling/farming jungler similar to Karthus or Evelynn. The main thing that makes Fiddle a hard matchup is that he has a strong leashless jungle clear and an early game that isn't weak enough to offset his scaling. His current state is a bit overtuned which puts him at the top of the jungle tier list. This is ban worthy if there are a lot of fiddle's at your ELO.”
Doubtfull says “VERY difficult match up. Fiddle can sustain your burst, and has many forms off CC to make it difficult to do much of anything before you die. His W drain also damages you even when ulting. Avoid this match up.”
Doubtfull says “Fiddle can lock you down with his kit and it is difficult to 1v1 him until you get your Ult, as you have no way to cancel his W. Use your speed to run outside of his drain range, and try to punish his relatively weak early game. Buy a blue orb so you can reveal him when you're forced to fight.”
SnowballBarrage says “Fiddle wards can cancel your snowball which ruins ganks.
Also can Interrupt your R and get fed easily through landing his R. Broken clear speed if done correctly.”
uSgSello says “Winning matchup.
Fiddlesticks will not try to counter jungle. His counter ganks are not very strong so you won't be in huge trouble if he is counterganking you.
You should try to kill him in the early game in his jungle because you can stop his drain with the cocoon and you can burst him fast.”
ak521 says “You outclear him, but he (or it) outsustains you. Meaning he'll have some 70-90% HP at the end of his clear, you'll have some 30-40%. He's best in team fights, especially when he has a lead, as his ultimate is just terrifying. Keep vision up, and be EXTRA careful while doing drag or baron. Your Q interrupts his W so be sure to use that.”
manco1 says “Fiddlesticks is one of the lower tier junglers in general recently, you can easily burst him out at all times of the game. As long as you play around his ult, the win is yours!”
Polarshift says “Overtuned and annoying but not impossible to kill. He can't cast his targeted abilities when you throw your smokescreen on him so be patient with it and don't use it to engage.”
PulseBeat_02 says “Fiddlesticks has little to no mobility, so you can easily root him down. You can use your Spell Shield to block his fear ability. He may be able to take you out however if you get caught into his ultimate with suprise.”
RedNBlue says “This is an absolute stupid champion in Trundles eyes, his cc is ridiculous and will just wreck you. You can't get close to him as you will be taking damage every time no matter what you try.”
carlru says “Take advantage of his early-game weakness and invade.
If you know which buff he started, you can invade the minor camps surrounding that buff after you finish scuttle, this will make him stumble.”
Suseri says “Ones you are 6 don't Ult till he has used his fear otherwise you will run very far away and your Ult might run out. Ones you have Qss he is a Childsplay.”
Kayn Mains says “You lose all fights from early to mid game. Fiddlesticks's Bountiful Harvest (W) will always win him trades. Avoid him at all costs unless you are ahead or have teammates by your side.
It is recommended to go Shadow Assassin into Fiddlesticks. Build Edge of Night once you reach the late game and catch him out in his jungle. Your spell shield should block his fear and a full combo is enough to kill him. You will be able to force out his Zhonya's Hourglass at the very least.”
nZk01 says “cancer to play against cant ever kill him and he outscales you, just try to kill him in river or countergank him pre 6 so he cant snowball and gets behind, he has mediocre objective control as its slow but he can still do drake pre 1st back so ward it.”
Rhoku says “Fiddle isn't really too much of a threat himself. He is one of the few junglers who is just a free kill waiting to be collected upon invades. If you do catch him off guard hes as good as dead. But his ultimate makes him very tough to deal with in teamfights and ganks if he pulls if off properly. Not to mention how his no counterplay fear and silence make if difficult for you to operate.”
Doubtfull says “Probably your worst match up. He has TONS of AoE damage making your single target shield much less valuable, and he can get on top of your fairly easy with his ult. Consider banning this.”
freddy66623 says “Fiddles wil win 1v1s throughout the entire game! BUT is countered by you taking his blue. Make sure to keep vision on him at all times.”
IMissedMyQ says “You crush him. Just go into his jungle and spank him. Keep deep vision so that you can track and prevent his ults over walls and you can stomp fid with ease.”
auileta says “Evelynn generally counters him, but he will have an early lead against you. He can be tanky too, but you should be fine as long as you stick to farming and ganking when you should.”
Kayncer says “Hard to fight whilst being behind, has a fast clear, good in teamfights, kill him pre 6 with conq as best!
Can completely counter Blue Kayn kit, Red is better against him.”
Spection says “Pretty annoying champion but not particularly dangerous in his own right. His power comes from teamfighting. In a duel with him, stay far away from Daisy because he can bounce his E off of her and you resulting in a lot of damage. Save your Q for his ultimate and don't get too close when he has W up. Invade his red, he will almost always start blue because Drain has such a high base cost.”
RichMrFork says “Don't underestimate Fiddlesticks's skirmishing early. His W healing and damage can surprise you. I would heavily recommend getting Mercury Treads against Fiddle especially if they have any other CC/AP threats on their team (Anivia,Leona,Annie). Be sure to lay as much vision down as possible to not get surprise ulted on in fights. The fear lasts long enough for you to get 1 shot by fiddle once he has items so you need to be aware of where he is. Fiddle hits an extremely strong powerspike at 6 and his ultimate has a relatively long cooldown so look to punish him while its down.”
Irmike78 says “Can hard cc Gwen and silence her long enough for their team to kill her (Gwen cannot recast R when silenced). In a 1v1 scenario Gwen will win most matchups with W up. ”
Ejsner says “Electrocute suggested. Fears, forcing emp W from you, if you wait it out, he just sustains your damage with W. Silences your entire kit with E. ”
PK Noob says “He’s walking gold during early game in his jungle. Track him down, get a free kill, and snowball off of it. You should easily win the game if it doesn’t go for too long and if you don’t throw.”
Gamyeon says “Mage junglers are completely destroyed by Kindred early, cheese invade level 3 on opposite buff and you'll do well. Flash to Kill. Mind that he can prolong the fight a lot and maybe give the enemy mid laner enough time to respond, be aware.”
Ejsner says “Electrocute suggested. Fears, forcing emp W from you, if you wait it out, he just sustains your damage with W. Silences your entire kit with E. ”
Riyad101 says “He is not too hard to invade and is easy to kill early in the game but late game Fiddle's ult will change the team fight so make sure to know where he is and ward everywhere.”
EUWRATS says “Make sure to ward against him because if he catches you in his R you're pretty much dead because of his insane damage. Ward prio to ganking because you dont want to be surprised by his R which can easily wipe out your team”
Aqua Dragon says “Junglers who have to farm until 6 are easy opponents for Malzahar. They tend not to focus objectives at all, and provide Malzahar an easy time to stay even. Fiddlesticks in particular can have their entire ult cancelled by a single Call of the Void; ouch!”
metalhydra273 says “Fiddle's rework has changed the tide of this matchup thanks to all of the additional cc which he can use to make you irrelevant in fights. Get around it though and he's a sitting duck. I recommend considering a qss to protect your team from his ults or punish him while he tries to get away with his fear. Make sure you know where he is if you plan to engage with your ult, since you're engage is very linear and he can easily bait and counter it.”
SoSheolH says “Squishy, slow and his main damage comes from an ability you can easily interrupt. If he ults on your team you can E+W him while your teammates run.”
LilPaniniUwU says “He hard outscales you, so you should focus on 1v1 fights, although he can sustain through some of your damage, you should have the upper hand in skirmishes, and you will probably get more early objectives. Don't let him fully channel his W on your, it's like half of his damage in 1v1s.
”
Kindredgarten says “Very easy to invades, you need to do that to abuse his weak early game. Be careful late game as his ult is very strong and has a fear, ult timing will be important for you.”
SaltCat says “He wants to scale like you to level 6 so you get a free early game, you win 1v1 early game, later in the game HE is gonna be your focus, look for him in places that you think he would r in a teamfight and kill him before he does that”
LilPaniniUwU says “You lose all fights from early to mid game. Fiddlesticks's Bountiful Harvest (W) will always win him trades. Avoid him at all costs unless you are ahead or have teammates by your side. It is recommended to go Shadow Assassin into Fiddlesticks. Build Edge of Night once you reach the late game and catch him out in his jungle. Your spell shield should block his fear and a full combo is enough to kill him. You will be able to force out his Zhonya's Hourglass at the very least.
”
FrostForest says “He stands still to deal damage resulting in an easy combo.
Your ultimate locks him up and makes it easy for you to kill him
He farms very quick and is very annoying to deal with later in game, look to play a fast paced early game”
Tormentula says “Rappel doesn't cancel his W drain since its a tether, but cocoon does stop the channel, when he starts his W use cocoon to break free of it, denying him damage and healing. Pick up a Banshee's Veil so you aren't randomly feared by his ultimate from Fog of War. Its very important to play around vision and to ward over walls where Fiddlesticks can ult from such as around raptors when pushing up in mid lane. He can scale really hard and his ultimate is game winning at times so close out games fast while respecting walls he can ult over. I highly recommend taking Zombie Ward in this matchup as his effigies actually count and spawn Zombie Wards. They're 1 hit, visible, and he spawns them more than regular wards so its perfect for Zombie Ward to quickly stack. ”
Caled says “Fiddlesticks is another matchup that is very hard for Kayn. Avoid any fights early on and throughout the mid game as Fiddle will be able to out-sustain you. Only fight Fiddle early if you are ahead and if you have support from teammates. One of Kayn’s strongest traits is his ability to dismiss taking damage by using his R (Umbal Trespass). Fiddlesticks W (Drain Ability) will stay on Kayn if Fiddle starts it before Kayn uses R (Umbral Trespass) allowing him to heal and do damage off of you at ALL times. Typically, Blue Kayn is better into Fiddlesticks as you will be able to one-shot him later in the game or at worst force him into using Zhonya's Hourglass. A good item to buy into Fiddlesticks when playing Shadow Assassin is Edge of Night as it allows you to deny his CC and have a better chance of fighting him in a 1v1.”
Loul_60 says “Just please permaban this stupid f***in champ, painful to deal with early game as you have no hard CC to cancel his channels. His combo makes teamfighting very difficult for you (mainly as Shadow Assassin) and you must respect his potential throughout the entire game, and he will outscale you with half your items and has little to no counterplay without good coordination from your team.”
litecrunch says “Fiddlesticks basically wants to do the same things shyvana wants to do. He wants to focus on farming early and then ganking and carrying teamfights after lvl 6. Out of the two of you early on, you beat him in terms of strength and even in the late game. Watch out for his ultimate, always be cautious and ward the fog of war.”
liserith says “If you can see him, his main weapon (his ult) is pretty much useless. Burst him down, and he has difficulty doing anything back. Make sure to ward as much as possible, however, as his ganking can snowball his lanes very quickly. ”
Veralion says “The rework made Fiddle significantly weaker 1v1 before 6. He is probably the single weakest pre-6 duelist in the game. Even Shyvana can absolutely destroy him. Apply early pressure and don't be afraid to take camps away. If he tries to drain tank you like the good old days, just kill him. You substantially outdamage his heal so long as he isn't also eating a camp or a wave and you aren't already low on health (it does missing health damage now). Aside from that, his clear speed now surpasses even Graves, so make sure you don't fall behind in levels. While you have absolutely nothing to fear from him early and may play freely, once he hits 6 you will need to keep him in the back of your mind anytime you go for a play. Crowstorm makes Fiddle the strongest counterganking champion in the game, and overchasing a fleeing target or committing to a skirmish with incomplete vision control may get you and several teammates killed. Never towerdive unless you have the surrounding area lit up like Christmas and make sure your bot lane keeps their lane bushes warded in case he tries to set up a trap. After lanes end and big fights start happening, make damn sure you don't clump together and keep your flanks warded. Force plays while his ult is down, as it has a long cooldown and the game is 4v5 without it.
Ignite and Exhaust are both good here, one to fight him early and the other to shut down his teamfighting. Your call. ”
Gumipapucs says “You can invade him and kill him early easily and deny him everything. Lategame he can CC you for 200 years and/or oneshot you so be careful.”
poopyOCE says “Pretty easy matchup. As a Fiddlesticks main, I hate going against aggressive Warwicks. Try to ward out common gank spots for your laners like chicken coup (near mid), V bend of blue, Bot river bust, etc. Bully him early game to throw off his start. His R is scarey as its pure damage output and tp is potent (that's y warding is important). You outduel him, you outheal his W, and you can use E recast to cancel his W. Be wary of his CC and silence. Otherwise, be a bully and countergank him as he has probably burned a lot of his stuff. He likes to start top at the beginning for a safe farm.”
ShadowCross says “He's gonna outfarm you and your bushes help him will vision. But you can get better ganks off and your daisy cc can break his W and his R. ”
KeyTheMonolith says “FIddlseticks is a really annoying matchup as you need to go blue kayn to assassinate him yet if you go blue fiddle will one shot you with his amount of cc and burst damage.”
chevy the sloot says “This guy was pretty unbeatable last season but even with how strong he is season 11 match up seems now pretty easy. Take redsmite for his burst and sit on a oblivion orb early and you can easily burst him down. Full clear first clear since he will most likely do the same.”
Al Groz says “Scales better than you and can kill you both early and late. Stronger in team fights and has a much faster clear. You should play around your boxes or look for easy kills on river etc. Tough matchup.”
c0st0m says “Not much to be said he has a point and click fear + silence so your chances of kiting him are slim to none def need zhonyas/bansheesh against him”
Shroomen Rider says “Fiddlesticks can be a thorn in the side. Point and click fear is within your attack range. His ulty murders your team and your blind does nothing to stop it. ”
ShatteredMinds says “Because of Fiddlesticks main strength coming from his ultimate, killing him early is easy. Not only this, but due to him being extremely squishy, he is a good way to gain gold. Wait for him to use his W before stunning him, as he will regain his health if you let him.”
Tinjus says “He doesn't stand a chance unless he gets the jump on you with his ultimate. You might find that you won't be able to kill him when he has his Fear up.”
Udyr uber says “Após o rework ele se tornou um pouco mais problemático, Use o Stun quando ele tentar roubar sua vida e ai desce o tigre nele.
Tenha cuidado com o clear extremamente rápido dele, tente dar counter gank nele.
Guerreiro+Mercúrio+Elmo Adaptativo”
DarnuS says “You counter him very well. You can easily knock him up with your E and cancel his W. In teamfight's you can also cancel his R with your R. Even if he uses his ult you can ult him away from your teammates, and win the fight.”
Do1HaveTh3Sauce says “Fiddlesticks isn't one to be concerned about, solely because he is squishy and can be CC'd when he does his Ult which is his primary source of damage.”
AyeJa3 says “He is probably the single weakest pre-6 duelist in the game. Even Shyvana can absolutely destroy him. Apply early pressure and don't be afraid to take camps away.”
kyrdousek says “u can out pressure him in early reset cancel his w and ult and lock him in your ult but he has better dmg and better team fights its skill matchup”
Tylen says “His Q (Fear), his wards, and his E (Reap) can cancel your Powerball. Wait for him to waste his cooldowns then roll in. You can also invade him since his pre-level 6 sucks and your post-level 3 is good.
Absolute nightmare is facing against a good fiddle. Stack MR. ”
Piss_Gaming says “KILL HIM EARLY OR LOSE. However, a good Fiddlesticks will usually finish his full clear before you can do anything, and will be more healthy if/when you both meet, by doing two camps at once, with drain.
This drain also counters Shaco in revealing him in stealth for both him (being able to use the ability when Shaco is nearby) and his team (via the true sight granted while Drain is active), even if his camps are warded for you to Q in to find him in his own jungle.
So this champion is an extreme threat when you do come across one as he's allowed to survive easily, while your goal is to kill him. Your only saving grace for this matchup is that it does not occur often, as (at the time of writing this guide) his play rate is low. ”
PsiGuard says “You don't have a fast way to interrupt his channels which makes this matchup difficult. You can win if you get more picks than he can get engages with his R. You can 2v2 if you have an ally that can CC him.”
EversideHS says “His silence is a big problem for you, you have to dance in your W very well to fight him properly and the silence and fear can get you one shot.”
Bel37 says “Fiddle is your hardest counter. His kit his fear, silence, and high damage ult dominates your kit. He also scales extremely well. You really have to play around vision when vs fiddlesticks. ”
lolX9J says “Will know anytime who the real shaco is.
Your Q is practically useless in the 1v1 after first approach. His W reveals you and still does damage in invis
Shaco R wont break his W aswell.”
ChaseMorePlz says “Easy matchup once he burns his fear on you, when you land a Bandage Toss onto him he pretty much dies immediately with the rest of your combo.”
ChaseMorePlz says “He can also stop your Q animation and silence you which is a pain to deal with, however he is very squishy and easy to kill especially when ahead :P”
waayWest says “You can easilly kill him if he throws away his attacks, his dps is really bad early, I try to invade his jg early for free kills most of the time.”
Wolf Rengar says “Recommended: Electrocute Rune Page/Build.
Tips: Invade in early if possible.
Try ulting before team fights to spot him , so he can't ult without being seen.
Fiddle outfarms you so you need to gank more than him , hes really good into Rengar when ahead.
”
Maverka88 says “This is easy match up for evelynn but care. Fiddlesticks is hard punisher and can beat you really hard if you get caught by his fear through passive.”
Get Ricked says “His fear makes it hard to jump on him. If he ults you out of nowhere he can kill you. Easily punishable when those abilities are down. ”
NathanPyke says “Fiddle support is okay but if he has a burst adc you're dead when he fears but if you have aftershock snowball lane instantly.
For jungle if you manage to get duskblade very early you can just perma counter jungle him till he has no late game.”
DarkAuraLOL says “If you invade him at the right time, where he is doing a double clear or so, he will be low on health, perhaps you can one shot him, sometimes you can make it to his blue early game where he does blue and gromp, take your raptors then invade his blue, he's free. he'll give you an early form, although he's gonna be annoying with his CC and zhonyas mid/late. He also scales and got a nice jungle clear.
”
G Spot God says “Main thing is to keep your E until he starts sucking you off. If you do that then you should win this fairly easily. Get mercs for sure since his fear and silence last for eons.”
EvoNinja7 says “Fiddlesticks is really weak in the early game, which can open up invades, but once he hits level 6 be slightly more cautious since he can do a lot of damage if you're in the general area.”
MetaSolaray says “If you can go Conqueror with Nimbus clock, his fear early game is so weak you can push through and your E cancels his W clean. As long as he doesn't ambush you, you win these trades with invades, counterganks, and pushing objectives early.”
DarkAuraLOL says “fiddlesticks, like evelynn is really weak in early 1v1's but hes a bit stronger for his sustain and cc, and he doesn't lose much health in jungle, but you can look for stealing his camps to hold him behind, fight him in jungle and either kill him or get many orbs for form, try to spot him on his blue at lvl 2-3 , he will try to do both gromp and blue, u can kill him there and steal both. don't let him free farm and scale, cause at 6 he's a braindead champion .”
RedNBlue says “He will cc you to heaven and he will just drain your little life from you and bash you like Evelynn except he will not do it as fast so take advatage of the time you have left in this world. Please...”
C7 Lord Pingu says “Only saying this is even because of the strong teamfight presence this guy brings. You can fight him pretty easily at most stages. You can essentially perma cancel his drain because he doesnt get the reduced cooldown from it and your stun CD is about the same as his heal. Just try to make sure he doesn't get a juicy ult and you should be fine. You can go any build vs him.”
RedNBlue says “Fiddlesticks is a cc engine and he is probably one of the worst champions to go against if not the worst as Lillia. he will just cc you and he can kite you just like you can kite him and this just isn't a matchup in your favor.”
FlamingZ says “Fiddle needs level 6 to pop off, so until then you have time to get off one or two ganks. After that, however, be careful that he doesn't try for a counter-gank.”
J03B0B says “His extremely fast clear allows him to pressure you and your lanes early. This along with his free vision makes it hard for you to impact the game pre 6.
Post 6 he can counter your engages by ulting your back line OR using his E silence to stop your engage.
Good vision and tracking his pathing is key to doing well in this match up but it's still very difficult.”
GabrielGames says “Early game he can easily escape from you. If you're able to combo him he should be dead - remember to stun him during his w tho. Late game he is a monster ”
TheMrDarkness says “take executioner's and go into his jungle. If You have healing reduction, he can't do anything and will cry for his teammates to help him”
NamaeWaMitsurii says “A very hard scaler with point and click CC as well as a Silence. Try and get priority over objectives and take his team buffs away.”
Simon The Shaco Main says “You don't really win 1v1s with this guy, he can outheal your damage. He always knows if you're near because his W can be used only when there are enemies nearby (like Trynd slow). You can beat him by popping.”
Schadenfreude says “It all depends on if you can catch him. His fear is a hard disengage and will possibly outheal your damage if he builds right. Try to catch him off guard and try to put him behind as much as possible. ”
Aurelius2142 says “You beat him early, he beats you late - you're better 1v1, he's better in teamfights. You both win at your own specialties, so try to force it whenever possible.”
Karthus man says “Fiddle isn't a big threat because he is very squishy. The only thing you should be weary of is when he ults and when he fears you because he can do a lot of damage to you,”
Ivern OTP says “Fiddle's clear speed and counter gankability gives him and extra edge on Ivern. Fiddle is really strong in this patch with the new items and can really cause havoc for you and your team. ”
Maile says “Fiddlesticks also cannot threaten your early game. He's just really annoying to kill because of his fear so just invade him with a buddy and make him cry. ”
Connweasel says “This is a skill matchup, Fiddlesticks is looking to play in the fog of war, which is where you rule king. If you can spot fiddlesticks on the side before he ults, you can assassinate him with ease. However if he uses his R, watchout.”
FrankynFood says “Very annoying matchup because he can cancel your e or fear you away when you activate ult. Be sure to look for opportunities to counter-gank once he hits 6.”
CalicoCactus says “Skill matchup I like to think. Save both of your CC for when he tries to channel his drain and just keep autoing him down. Bramble is very good into him as well as 50% of his kit is just healing off people.”
Trexori says “Easiest matchup of your LIFE. He's just about as weak as you are early game, though I would still not risk it. You cancel his entire kit with yours.”
SketchtheHunter says “A good Fiddlesticks truly is something to fear, but thankfully you can play around him pretty well. Save your E for when he tries to pop his W, as the pull will interrupt the channel. Definitely a matchup where good tracking and game knowledge can really make the difference.”
NightSoar says “His vast amounts of CC can hurt your combo and your health really badly. Just farm and Roam. Be careful if he goes MIA as he could be channelling his ult over a wall.”
Minase says “Absolutely gross matchup - he farms just as fast as you do and his wards give his team true-vision meaning they will act as pink wards. Look to charm him into a one-shot and not to pick fights with him until later on.”
Orfeass says “He isn't a threat, you both will just farm it up and you will be able to have more impact on the map and in teamfights you will just bring more to the table.”
BoyWonder00 says “He is hard to kill as Rhaast as he heals almost as much as you. As SA, he just fears you and walks away. Plus, he rushes hourglass, so he can be hard to kill.”
PH45 says “Can be difficult to duel as you have nothing that can interrupt his drain. That being said after you get your Darkin form this matchup should become easier.”
FalleN3 says “His fear can be quiet annoying. Try to break his drain if you can before 1v1 with him or else you will struggle to take health from him. Be careful if you meet him near a jungle camp as his (E) could bounce off you several times.”
FalleN3 says “Fiddlesticks is not in a good place right now and he is not dreadfully hard to play against. Having said that you will have to be mindful of his Fear and Silence as they can make him quiet annoying to deal with. Be careful if you meet him near a jungle camp as his (E) Dark Wind could bounce off you several times.”
Holessando says “This is a really annoying champion, and really strong late game champion.. his power is enourmous, he's the current meta, so strong, his fear, hp steal, it's just so op, really hard matchup, maybe dodge. He will probably be ahead when good, and you can't really contest him when ahead. You gotta kill him early, so you get ahead, if he's behind he can't do much without items and kills. ”
metalhydra273 says “Fiddlesticks is much more equipped to deal with you now thanks to the added fears he got. He is very hard to deal with now that he packs all the fears and a silence to boot. Getting in to deal with him can prove difficult if you're not ahead early. Look to spot out his ult before he gets the jump on you and try to track him down to deny ganks that can set him ahead. You can beat him 1v1 though, look to stun him while he's draining. I recommend building tanky in this matchup to survive his burst and punish him, such as an early adaptive helm.”
DemacianStandard says “Free invades without counterplay. Just use an Oracle Lens while doing so. Play around their early game and invade if they attempt a gank. ”
SHACO BOLADO says “você conssegue cancelar a chupada dele com sua box, e baitar ele com sua ult, dificilmente vc ganha um 1v1 contra ele , cuidado com spots de ult, e nunca se agrupe”
Xe0N says “He is a farming jungler(like you) and will most likely leave you unattended. You may need to couterjungle a few times if he plays aggressive.”
brSL7 says “Fiddle é de boa caso você esteja na frente dele.
Depois de fechar o Semblante Espiritual você pode dar muitos invades pois o fiddle ira morrer bem fácilmente.”
Reason97 says “I have yet to play against the reworked fiddlesticks midlane, so this threat level may need adjusted, but until such a time i get first hand experience i will be leaving him here. He's still largely based around his Ult, so in a straight lane matchup you (in theory) have the advantage, just be weary about getting jumped when you don't know where he is. his silence and his fear together make for an annoying time if you attempt to get him off of you, so just keep that in mind and give him a little space. ”
KaRMaX says “Fiddlestick depends a lot about his R which has a pretty long CD.
He can be annoying with his cc, so prepare yourself and choose tenacity in runes (Precision) and buy merc's.
With that he is no match for you”
ShroudedBRH says “His E is short cooldown and costs almost no mana and he can hit you with the backline creeps his Q allows him to deter any of your all in damage. Once he gets R avoid accepting teamfights and all ins without enough vision on flanking positions”
chasemyman1 says “Its tough to say as Fiddlesticks value comes in 3v3 or more fights with his Ultimate. You however destroy him early as your cocoon prevents his healing. Use your advantage early to snowball other lanes. He clears camps insanely quickly so its tough to counter jungle.”
Sandomar says “Fiddlesticks is scary if fed and at a distance. So don't feed him, steal his Blue Buff so he can't feed, and Bear-Stun to break his drain. You'll wipe him off the map in a few seconds.”
reganakers says “Fiddle without the cc = worthless. After 6 you can just run him down easily. He wants to clear his camps and is very weak early so go and make his life hard in his jungle, because if you can manage to isolate him its a free kill.”
stziswhatihave says “If you know what you are doing, this matchup shouldn't be too hard.”
Heimerdinger by stziswhatihave | Heimerdinger Player
CinderTheSnake says “As long as you have the element of surprise on him this should be an easy matchup. the only thing that you should watch out for is his ult and his fear in teamfights. ”
PsiGuard says “Fiddle is a bit overtuned at the moment and his silence & fear can stop you from escaping sticky situations with R. If you fight him, you'll need to charm and burst him before he can use any abilities, otherwise he'll heal back some of his HP and CC you so long you won't be able to finish him. Keep your warding totem and help your team ward dangerous spots that he might ult from. You can also use Farsight wards to spot him if it's too dangerous to facecheck later in the game.”
classicnoob says “This new Fiddle is pretty strong,but you have the early lead on him,Watch out for his Ulti-Fear or Other Abilities.
I Don't tend to ban him much.”
BrawlerDave says “Must be deep warded, and get executioner early (before sheen)
The ganking potenital of this champ is big, better to fight him off after you get your lvl 6, and wait for him to use W.”
ManiacChester says “He's ranged but he can't really can't do much to you. His reliance on W is way too much. Stay out of range. Level 6 and just poke and kill him. ”
FrickLillie says “If you fight fiddle in a 1v1 you will probably win but you have to be very careful and have a lot of vision because if his ult fears you then you will probably die.”
Happty says “Kind of hard to kill, just make sure to avoid his R or Q, but if he gets you with his R, try to E away from him and hit him with W, after his R ends, try to kill him and pray that he doesn't have his Q, since it can turn the tables.”
KillyOne says “Reworked Fiddlesticks is no better than the old Fiddlesticks. For Warwick it isn't a real threat, but he does bring a lot of crowd control and surprise engages to the game. Be careful of his sneaky ultimates, which is what every Fiddlesticks is going to try to pull off when you least expect him. Keep warding flanks when taking objectives.”
League Of Cursed says “Who said Fiddlestick is weak, it is extremely strong from the beginning to the end of the game because of the ability to shock when so magic power and strong recovery from W should be resisted, but notice the puppets you will not know Where is the real thing
”
Dopamine_influx says “Fast clear if he's good, he can be lvl 4 on scuttle spawn. You win with triple Q though, but the fight will take a while so you need prio. He can't really kill you, but you usually don't kill him either, unless you catch him in his jungle pre zhonyas. You snowball hard though, so if you manage to kill early and double scuttle, you can easily invade and kill again. Post 6 his counterganks and ganks are insane, and hard to counter. He's annoying as hell in skirmishes and teamfights.”
Stiwy says “I have seen some fancy aftershock fiddkesticks top these days but keep in mind that your E can break his W channel.
Just don't trade too often because he can heal a lot.
Healing reduction is heavily suggested.
The 10.15 nerfs ended this guy's career in toplane and he is a very minor threat.”
Xeldom says “Even match-up.
Fiddlesticks will easily out farm you due to his innate ability to clear multiple camps at once. Use your ult late game to reveal his location and pick off the priority target.”
Jogress says “I have yet to see a good Fiddle on Lillia.
You have quite a good speed to break his drains in the midgame, also, this exact speed may make his ult useless. But "Fear is your enemy", so "Tenacity is your friend".
Also, you may consider Adaptive helmet, later on”
AWierdShoe says “He is a heavy CC champ like Zac but with less tankiness. You need to invade him early and try to shut him down so he doesn't scale. Just be aware of his CC as his Q and E allow him to disengage. I recommend rushing Executioner's Calling to mitigate his extreme healing with his W. ”
DarkArbalist613 says “ Fiddle is really weak to early invades, so make sure to take advantage of that. if he is fed he can one shot you if he gets off his original fear from stealth so make sure to play around Vision.”
Comrade Eshgrim says “You have no means to interrupt his drain resulting in him winning most duels between you. You can try to invade him early with red buff cheese but better to avoid a 1 on 1 fight with him later on. Save your teammates with your ult from his all-in and follow up on his ganks.”
TheRealAlpacaDG says “Fiddle isn't much of a problem for you with phase rush, you can simply run away. Look out for over the wall ults, other than that he should have little kill pressure, get your laners to come if he invades”
Omega Zero says “Fid alone? Fine, but annoying with his fear. Fid with team disrupting a gank? Be EXTREMELY cautious. Also he'll have Zhonya so have fun. Also him fearing you doesn't slow you so you'll be running 50 miles an hour AWAY from him.”
nextonetwo says “he has a lot of healing, but you have 2 hard cc spells, just wait for him to heal or just kill him, he's pretty squishy throughout the game.”
nextonetwo says “he has a lot of healing, but you have 2 hard cc spells, just wait for him to heal or just kill him, he's pretty squishy throughout the game.”
FreefallPH says “Fiddlesticks is also a weak jungler at early game. If you engage him just make sure that you only press q if he starting to drain your life.”
TimRhabey says “Ele limpa os campos dele muito rapido oque deixa dificil de invadir e conseguir robar algo dele, se ele usar o fear no udyr em quanto ele estiver com a movespeed do E o udyr vai correr pra muito longe dele. (Recomendo chuva de laminas e bastante wards na jungle do fiddle)”
Kamisore says “Invade as much as possible, if he gets behind it's free game, you win early 1v1's as well, but if he gets to free farm late game he'll just press R and delete your entire team.”
Hide on Nidalee says “Ohhh Fiddle, probably the harder match of the majors threats but u can beat him too, he's so squeeshy so you can oneshot him, but if he initiate on you, you're dead haha”
DarkPit59 says “Fiddlesticks dispose d'un silence, d'un fear et d'un ultime infligeant de très lourds dégâts de zone. Il ne perd que peu de PV dans la jungle et il est préférable de ne pas l'affronter seul.”
Heihro EUNE says “Its just now reworked i dont played any game against him, you can 1v1 him but he can carries teamfights with his r so just careful with him!”
Al3ksP says “Fiddlesticks will get slaughtered if ults your close heäll get stunned and take alot of damage, try to q and hit him in the back and finish him of with your E ”
Flux31 says “Because of Fiddlesticks' secondary passive, he has a good kit to fight Warwick, but if executed correctly Fiddle can be even when in skirmishes”
Sorrowful Prince says “Don't ever teamfight if you don't see him. Always take Control Wards because vision is king. Don't bother invading him he will block you and wait for his laners. If you countergank him while his q is on cooldown he is doomed. If you manage to get ahead you can go qss after trinity and hunt him down.”
GinWinsky says “Can burst him at any point. Put a box between you and him so when he uses his W, he gets feared. After 6 and duskblade you can burst him even before he reacts with Q.”
Nico449c says “Let him use silence and q on you, then you use e and just burst him down he wont be able to do anything before lvl 6 even if he jumps on you lvl 6 your rappel can wait out hes ult and you should easy win the fights. He got bad ganks and low prio early games keep optimal vision around the map so he cant get any ganks off otherwise invade him and abuse him early.”
PrettyPinkPutin says “Point and click fear and silence can leave you in a sour spot, he also carries quite some high damage, but he is only played as support anyway so it'll be just an annoying CC bot peeling for someone else.”
lheisse says “Fiddlesticks is immobile, making him a easy target, and you can usually block his fear. However, if he catches you off guard with a ult, he may be able to take you out”
Marcua says “Ohh, a big scary scarecrow! How cute! I love to play against Fiddlestick players. They are one of the most predictable jungle champions. They will often go for a wolf start, followed by a gromp + blue camp, where they will use their W to dmg both camps. They think they are super clever, but we know better! A well placed spear will completely destroy them, since they are already quite low from taking both camps at once.
Fiddlesticks is useless when behind, and if you get ahead on him, you will most likely stay ahead the whole game. ”
BlindKidNoThumbs says “Trash champ don't get chessed invade him and gank. Apply pressure before Fiddlesticks hits 6 and your fine.Matchup will change after rework.”
probr859 says “The fear applied by any champion works against your R, this takes you out of position and can ruin a gank opportunity.
O medo aplicado por qualquer campeão trabalha contra o seu R, isso o tira da posição e pode arruinar uma oportunidade de gank.”
ElBelmo says “Due to Fiddlesticks fear he can be a threat early , in Generall any Champ that can fear or make himself Invisible can be a Threath to Nunu. Fiddle is one of the Most Popular Counter Picks against Nunu...”
Simphoria says “I rarely see Fiddle but when I do its automatically a Merc Treads game. He can counter gank well but usually sticks to his own jungle. ”
Mkcls says “He's useless. No joke. Don't get baited by his health steal, he might outheal your dmg. Kinda hard to chase, but weak to early cheese. Just ward bushes to dont get caught in during his ult.”
Fyurex says “This guy doesn't get played. If you ever meet him don't ever be afraid of him. He is easy to kill and doesn't do much damage without his ult”
LFS_aXent says “Fiddle relies on silencing and fearing, but with your main damage being autos, if he lands silence, you can run around him. He won't have any follow up with how fast you actually are in this build.”
shaundasschaf says “Actually squishy and you can burst him down easily but his fear can make you run through the whole map. Don't wast your Ult on his Fear.”
spark2 says “You should be so lucky to go up against a Middlesticks. He literally stands still for most of his damage and sustain, so you can land W's all day and make his life hell. He's got a lot of CC, so early Merc Treads is a good idea to shut him down. Keep your bushes warded and this is a free lane.”
Laverenz says “Skarner has a lot of mobility and movement speed, which is good, but against Fiddlesticks can be bad for you. Because if he fears you, your own movement speed will be turned against yourself, because you will run away as fast as you run towards him.”
DefinitelyNotAhmed says “With the amount of cc Fiddlesticks has he can literally deny Amumu with his fear opening a gateway for the enemy team to wash off your team. ”
Her0mars says “He can destroy you if you don't knock him up or kill him while he drains, some fiddlesticks make it near impossible to find them and stop their ult before a teamfight, really a skill matchup on their positioning. You won't see many fiddlesticks though.”
CryAwake says “Fiddlesticks is a very matchup wait for him to use his fear before using Heroic Charge make sure to use your Heroic Charge charge when Fiddlesticks either drains or uses his ultimate.”
Yuki H. says “Fiddlestick's clear is very healthy, but is 1v1 potential isn't the highest. His fear will most likely deny any chances of a straight 1v1, so look to invade and wait for him to use his fear on the camp/go out of mana before engaging on. You are capable of one shotting him in the mid game with your core items.”
KhaZix Mains says “[3/10] Can nullify your impact with his point-and-click CC but once you get level 6 or an item lead you can burst him relatively easy. Be sure to keep in mind of his items to see when he gets hourglass as you can get baited into a fight or collapsed on if you try to pick him while he has his Hourglass active up. Try to have your team lock him down so you can burst him and keep in mind his cooldowns to know when to jump in during teamfights. Keep wards around flanks around mid/lategame to scout out his ultimate engages.”
Yzroma says “Tu ne peux pas 1v1 fiddle sans ton ultime. Essaye de le one shot avec un combo Q AA E AA R AA E il n'aura pas le temps de fear ou le fera pendant ton ultime.”
The Jhin Cena says “Late game, you can protect your team by CCing his ult and then popping Zhonya's. He's really squishy so if you catch him offguard you'll be able to win.”
Leapus says “You can first blood easily, but it can be really hard if he uses his R and you can't escape it. You can still oneshot him in most cases but don't forget he will get a Zhonya.”
Bombabo says “You can kill this man by looking at him. Be sure to charm him, since he can easily shut you down with his fear, so take him down quickly.”
Chosokabe says “His fear is the bane of your existence. If you ult and he hasn't used fear, you're pretty much out of the fight if he fears you. QSS will save you the hassle. ”
HAMMERSLAYER says “A very passive jungler until level 6 that hits a powerspike afterwards, once he gets ulti he will search and target all lanes for potential kills that will allow him to snowball in midgame.”
LixoPanado says “Annoying at most, his fear, silence, they can all cancel your ulti. Luckily building a spirit visage will make it much easier on you, easy to counter jungle as well.”
lolWillieP says “Fear is his only escape. Invade this guy 24/7. Btw yur bear interupts his drain, so make sure to save the slap for when the drain starts”
Toad12138 says “You crush him like paper in the jungle, but he has his fear and silence which is annoying to deal with. Becareful of his ult in fights, get vision control so he cannot surprise ult you and your team.”
MasutaKokoBot says “An enemy fiddlesticks (support mostly) is pretty hard to lane against. His silence can prevent you from healing, and does a decent amount of damage. Try to watch for his ultimate too. Get the banshees veil to protect you. Tenacity works well against his Fear!”
noolan says “If the other team has a fiddle, you are so screwed. Two of his abilities cancel your ultimate. I have personal experience with this matchup, and believe me it is not going to be a fun game for you. This guy can and will make you completely useless for your team, no matter how fed you think you are.”
Fruxo says “He can silence you which will keep you from using ur abilities + he has his annoying fear which he uses in combination with his W, CC'ing him while he's draining is a great idea to remove and setup some returning damage, but be careful! His R becomes very deadly in combination with his ADC and can really do a lot of damage towards you.”
Twist21 says “You might underestimate this pick but his w is strong in early levels but if you build a bit of mr you should be able to beat him easily lvl6.”
EpicEvan921 says “He has a couple areas of concern. 1, His Q. A fear that can last longer than 2 seconds (when maxed out). Engage from behind him whenever possible. He can fear you into your own team, best case scenario. 2, His E. Make sure he has this down before you go in.”
BigBadVoodo says “Very easy to kill on the early level's. We cancel out his drain with our boxes and running ignite just ensures we get early kills on him.”
xTheUnlimited says “The main fact why you counter him is his W. He has to stand still to use it, but you can easily interrupt it. Also, against Fiddlesticks, I would go for an invade to bully him. You even outdamage him in early game with a red buff. ”
woofpack3 says “nobody should be playing fiddle jungle in 2019. if they picked it blind they're dumb and deserve to lose. if they counterpicked it than they read that you're morg jungle and can't stop their drain and have probably 3 times as many brain cells as albert einstein”
OmnimX says “His fear and silence impact your ability to get your charm off, but if you don't give him time to react, you should be alright. He also won't damage you all that much and is very vulnerable to you invading him.”
MintyMizu says “He can completely cuck you with his W (causes you to flee) which just stops you in your tracks for a good 100 years. When ganking a botlane with fiddlesticks support try to go for him if you think you can kill him or his adc.”
Violzandre says “Headache, his fear and his lifesteal are a little threat in early, but you can easily kill him in late.
Just be careful if he have zhonya and use her R, and be careful with... your team!! yes, if your team doesn't know how to ward and avoid his R, the fiddlestick will win a teamfight and.... you'll be 1 vs 5
I'll pray for you.”
Wulfery says “So, if you disrupt his life sucking, you still can get silenced, and then feared. His CC on fear is good enough to make him a threat. Tho', he has a nice ult you can easily use.”
weinerman says “hah, pathetic, his e can be annoying (for your support not you) so try moving to a point where you can spell shield the e without it bouncing to your support (it still bounces after getting spell shielded SO stupid). can't really engage on YOU so you get to pick your winning fights whether you like it or not.”
Loul_60 says “FIddlesticks isn't too bad of a matchup. He is also very weak currently in the jungle. He lacks much clear speed and gank potential, just try to avoid 1v1s with him early as his CC and range does pose a threat.”
TricolorStar says “Although Fiddlesticks has the element of surprise, you have the element of stealth. Take advantage of his extreme squishiness and burst him down when you see an opening.”
Ivker21 says “To avoid him in team fights always ward over a wall you think he'll come over. If he still gets in and Ults just Bandage Toss him or ult him to protect your team.
Outside of that, you win the 1v1. once he fears you just Q in later. He has no escape and you'll just out damage him.
He also clears slower than you, but he is healthy, so consider counter jungling him if his team can't help him and you have enough HP.”
CalebsLegacy says “As long as you get your combo off, he is easy to beat. I've seen some good fiddlesticks in the past so be careful. Early levels, a good fiddlesticks can win. ”
Castcade says “Fiddlesticks is no longer considered a jungler or maybe i don't know but he is pretty easy to fight just q away from his w then call wolf to get back into the fight I recommened playing VERY AGGRESSIVE and counter jungle as much as you can”
