Champion Tips
Riot officialPlaying as
- Use Dark Wind to rack up many minion kills, and try to use Drain on minions to get the maximum health drain.
- Use Terrify on enemies before starting up Crowstorm or Drain to ensure maximum damage.
- Fiddlesticks is very fragile if you build AP items. Try to strike a balance between offense and defense with runes, masteries, and items.
Playing against
- Avoid attacking while close to your allies. Dark Wind will bounce between you and your allies extending the duration of its silence.
- If Fiddlesticks has used Crowstorm, try casting a stun or slow and moving out of range until the spell dissipates.
- If Fiddlesticks is nowhere to be seen, watch out for an ambush Crowstorm from brush.
