Rework splash art:
New champion theme song/skins splash arts:
Rework cinematic trailer
For a while now, Fiddlesticks' new model was teased in artwork and rigging, but we were all anxious to see how different the final kit would differ from the original. Although Riot has given Fiddlesticks some new tricks up his sleeve, several legendary abilities remain now in a new form , including a Q fear ability (which now also does some dmg), W draining (which now drains up to three targets instead of one) and crows, lots of crows. New ulti is similar to the current one, but deals way more damage. So along with buffing the new Fiddle, they now also made him more viable for laning as well.
Gameplay preview/Abilities/Skins
All 'new' abilities:
Passive
A Harmless Scarecrow. Instead of a normal trinket, Fiddlesticks can place down scarecrows that look just like it and act as wards, which also briefly reveal enemy wards at Level 6. Enemy champions coming near a scarecrow activate it, causing it to fake an auto-attack or ability cast, before destroying itself.
Q
Terrify which passively causes ability damage to fear enemies if out of combat and unseen. The active component of Q is a point-and-click fear which also deals damage or double damage on a recently feared enemy instead of CCing them again.
W
Bountiful Harvest is functionally the same as its old channeled drain. However, the ability now applies to all enemies within a certain range and the cooldown is partly refreshed if the channel completes in addition to everything dying from the drain.
E
Reap is a completely new ability, which damages and slows enemies in a crescent area in front of Fiddlesticks. Enemies in the center of the area also become silenced, interrupting any channeled spells.
R
Crowstorm remains unchanged. Channeling the ultimate will teleport Fiddlesticks a short distance and cause massive AOE damage for a few second. Imagine combining that with the new W aoe drain, I'm having a boner right now.
His kit is gonna be outrageous, I'm definitely keeping him as one of my mains, gonna play the old Fiddle for a few days to properly say goodbye to him.
The rework should come out in the next patch, April 1st or something like that.
