Fiddlesticks
Something has awoken in Runeterra. Something ancient. Something terrible. The ageless horror known as Fiddlesticks stalks the edges of mortal society, drawn to areas thick with paranoia where it feeds upon terrorized victims. Wielding a jagged scythe...

Early Game
Fiddlesticks jungle is AP burst + objective control. Start Hunter's Talisman + Refillable. Full clear with AoE wave abilities. Hit lvl 3 by 3:30 — first gank window.
Gank lanes with AP burst combo. Electrocute or Conqueror keystone depending on style. Counter-jungle when ahead. Look for Scuttle Crab fight at 3:30.
Mid Game
Luden's Companion or Liandry's Anguish + Sorcerer's Shoes is your spike. Fiddlesticks bursts squishies — pickoff carries in skirmishes.
Shadowflame 2nd item for magic pen on shielded targets. Zhonya's 3rd vs dive comp. Pick off ADC/mid in skirmishes — burst threshold = 60%+ HP.
Late Game
AP burst threat. Fiddlesticks bursts priority targets in skirmishes. Rabadon's Deathcap 4-5th item = 35% AP increase. Avoid getting caught — squishy = die in 2 hits.
Void Staff vs MR stacking. Mejai's Soulstealer on snowball. Track enemy ult cooldowns.
Win Condition
Gank with AP burst → roam to kill carries → close before tanks scale. Fiddlesticks carries by pickoffs, not 5v5 DPS.
Win: 5+ gank kills + 60%+ R execution rate on squishies. Lose to: tank junglers (Sejuani, Skarner) — can't burst through HP.
Power Spikes
Level 3 — full kit + first gank window. Level 6 — R for guaranteed kill confirmation. Liandry's Anguish (1st item) — DoT damage on abilities. Sorcerer's Shoes — magic pen for true damage. Level 11 — R rank 2 + 3 items = 100% HP delete. Rabadon's Deathcap (5th item) — 35% AP amplifier.
Tips & Combos
Combos:
- E (gap-close) -> Q + W + auto + R = full burst on squishy
- Zhonya's mid-combo = damage interruption + reset window
- Flash + ability for guaranteed engage angle
Anti-tips:
- Don't dive without 3+ ability rotations
- Don't engage tank cluster — dive backline only
- Don't waste R on full-HP tank — execute threshold matters
Pro tricks:
- Stealth/dash ability before combo, not after spotted
- Smite priority targets in objective contests
- Mejai's stacks reset on death — snowball steady
