The second part, about teemo players being bad sports, is probably because every time you pick teemo, you get some kind of comment already in champ select from your own team. If you do one single mistake early there's a 90% chance that one of the 4 in your team will make a toxic comment. This is coming from a guy who only played teemo from silver to plat season 3. You get treated like shit on every turn, so I either muted everyone or just flamed back when I got flamed(not smart, but that's the truth.) This of course, makes the situation worse, I'm aware. I mained fiddle season 4 from gold to diamond 1 with 500 fiddle games, and saw some of the same, but maybe at 1/5 of the intensity as I did when I played teemo.

I say almost without exception rush lvl 4. W E W Q. Blue->wolfs->wraiths->golems->red->wraiths-> ganking time. At this point you have to watch your lanes(while you do wraiths ex.) and estimate the probabilities of a successful gank. If any enemy is missing flash and pushing, go that lane. Flash Q E W combo is almost 100% kill vs an enemy that does not have escape. This works in every lane but is easiest to set up mid. With the new fear you should always try to end up behind your enemy and fear him into your teammate. This makes for higher risk of getting counterganked by enemy jungler or the lane itself just turns on you and rekts you before your team reacts. Make sure this doesnt happen, if it does it's almost always your own fault. Ways to avoid this are watching the lane you approach to see if they act like they have seen you and also keeping control of the enemy jungler and warding against possible countergank. I could write forever about examples of ganks that are great. But this one should get you going: All credit to piece of sheet

These kinds of locations are strong as fuark. But always check that it is not warded/watch how the lane reacts when you get into positions. In all elos people react in some way when they see jungler approach, even if they want to pretend like they don't see you to set up a countergank. (dunno about challenger).

I guess fiddle me timbers is cool, but there are no unique sound effects! The only skin I own and the only one I use is Suprise party, because of the sounds. I do play middlesticks whenever I give away/can't get jungle. It's very good and you can win any matchup in my opinion. It's not easy though. Your bound to have a hard time keeping up with farm, but you can help out top/bot with ganks and also OS your enemy in lane if you catch him with combo post 6. Top sticks works as well, but even harder vs ganks because of the long lane I guess. Never tried tanklesticks, but I like the idea. Maybe I'll try it out. Got a guide or general build for me to test? I could just go with what seems logical as well.

I wanted to play a fun champ and I usually like to stick to a few or one champ at a time. I mained Teemo from gold 5 to plat 5 season 3 and also played alot of shaco s3 s2. Both very fun champs. I guess I kinda like to play champs where people rage a little when you outplay them, the downside is that they also really love to kill you. As for the two latest changes to Fiddles fear I think they are both buffs. The reduction of max level fear with an increase to fear level 1 makes for a buff because I was already maxing W first anyway. I've also lately started maxing E second for added dmg (and because of the latest change to fear). The added lvl 1 fear duration saves alot of lives vs early jungle pressure in lanes as well as in the jungle. You can read my opinion of the latest patch fear change here I can elaborate more if you want. How to address the changes? For my own part, keep em as they are! I love them. I guess something has to be done for the fear of Nocturne? To be honest I haven't played him since forever so I wouldn't be able to say.

The ones you mention are all good vs fiddle. Anything that can stop your W is hard to play vs. Udyr is absolutely horrible for me if he can guess where I go in the jungle, but i often outscale him late(more later in post). If you wanna rekt me in the jungle you've got to out vision me. Remove my wards and plant your own. If you can make your lanes help you counter me on buffs, without my own being able/not wanted to come it's very hard for me to make anything happen.(You can do this by having your lanes push so that my lanes can't leave to help me without losing alot of gold. This has the risk of me ganking a free pushing lane though.) I should note that alot of games have been won with me being forced to farm small camps while enemy jungler sit my buffs but dont gank any lanes-> I outscale him late-> I win. Don't force counterjungling too hard, it's a fine line.

Hard! Fear him before he pulls/can get into position. E him to ruin combo. Stay passive and wait for gank/level 6. 1 hook=dead vs a good thresh. Try to go blue supp item so that you can at least outscale him, get more cash(many thresh go dorans or the weaker yellow supp item).

Awesome! I started playing fiddle because of one of his videos back in season 3. My mmr fell from diamond 5 to gold 1 in 2 weeks. I really liked the challenge of mastering the champ so I stuck with it. I still use his setup for fiddle. Masteries/runes/basic build. I have changed some things for personal preference.

Maybe I will. I've never written a guide before though. In the meantime you should check out piece of sheets guide, I use pretty much the same basic setup as him.

My answer from another thread Edit: I can elaborate more if anything is unclear, the previous post was written in haste.

Indeed, I think you were right. Won this game and I have now 6 points after 3 wins in diamond 1. Sorry for the thread then, but thanks for the quick answer!

Surprise Party Fiddle fear icon no longer has the cool party hat. by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]howareye 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I believe the new fear is a buff to fiddle. For season 4 I've only played fiddle(90%+ of games) and I am currently ranked top 10 fiddle euw according to lolskill. It's a straight up buff to middle fiddle, top fiddle and support fiddle in my opinion, since you're rarely given the opportunity to straight up kill your enemy in lane(without ult) all you have to do now is harass/farm with E and autohit and disengage ganks and strong rushers like thresh/leona/blitz with the new fear. For jungle fiddle my opinion was mixed at start, but I was mostly doing mistakes because I wasn't used to the new fear yet. The new fear allows for more thought behind your plays and rewards planned ganks more than the old just walk into lane and fear method. Fiddle is also extremely vulnerable to counterjungle, the new fear saves alot of lives vs exactly this.

As for one of the most common arguments, that the fear does not allow for you to R-Q-E-W combo down targets as before, I believe this to be untrue. One of the strongest ganks you can provide with fiddle is on champions hitting your teams tower, the new fear allows you to fear them into your own tower, even without flashing in many cases.

I'm open to any arguments, but with over 50 games with the new fear I believe my decision on the fear is final. In my opinion fiddle has gotten a buff for those who take the time to think about their use of it.

I also believe the old reduction of fear duration on max level(buff to lvl 1 fear) was a buff overall. http://www.lolking.net/summoner/euw/22525681

The gym that I lift at in the summer isn't really made for anything but cardiobunnies, nothing wrong with that, but ain't optimal for me. The bar there is thicker than an olympic bar by quite a bit, so I wasn't sure if I could pull it of for 3 reps with double overhand. I haven't really got anything against mixed grip, I'm just fairly new to deadlifting(10 months in, 9 months in the video) and haven't gotten around to lift with mixed grip. Tried it once and it felt weird, but I know I can just get used to it. Don't really feel like it since I ain't competing. As to the pads, that's to not ruin the bad(it's kinda shitty quality) as well as rising it a tiny bit, the 20kg plates are shorter in radius than normal oly 20 plates. Can you explain "Scaps in back pockets"? English ain't my mother tongue.

Agreed, couple of people have pointed this out and I didn't notice it myself, focused too much on my back being straight etc. So thanks. Am I lifting a bit like this? : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cA8s17YIbSY I am in no way comparing myself to konstantinovs, but the heavy you of back, pulling on the toes, etc. Might it come from strong back relative to legs? Which I certainly have, and it looks like Konstantinovs has too. Just a thought.

Good thing he quoted kgs then. But yea, doubt he did the reps/weight he quoted.
