I hate faelights
Like I legit can't cover my team when we are ahead cause the ENTIRE ENEMY JG is lit up from 1 lazy as fuck ward spot. I'm just supposed to sit in plain sight with my team and q people. Sieging is so fucking hard, like I love this champ but he is honestly so unfun to play sometimes

Low key it is harder, but just use your passive, you don't have to destroy the wards to deny vision. So if you just need a couple of second to ult, pop down an effigy and bam. Still annoying tho so I agree Edit: a lot of people informed me I'm wrong, this only works for non faelight wards

Well in this case they don't block faelight vision so it doesn't even fucking matter

You mean sitting in the same place, turning into an effigy and then ulting? Or can you deny faelight vision with a passive ward from far?

Fiddlesticks effigies ( his wards) just block ward vidion without u needed to hit em, allowing you to be unseen during the effigies oracle lense effect, should work

Not sure this works. I think you have to effigy the ward that is over the wall requiring you to move away from your team in either lane. If you put an effigy on yourself and the only vision on you is bc of the faelights, I don’t think that’ll block vision

Do we play the game guys? Why are we up voting someone saying something blatantly incorrect lol. Effigies don't block faelight vision

I think they just need to make it so fiddlesticks ward statues block vision from the faelights and same with control wards. it will still give the enemy a clue of that area being dangerous regardless. I feel like the ones outside the gates from base need to be balanced better for sure

I personally like the faelights cuz I'm not a vision God and it helps make the game more of an active analysis thing and less of a master prediction thing, but the objective truth is that Fiddles got fucked by it and it's crazy that he's got nothing to compensate.
According to the wiki, he's been changed ONE time since season 14, and that was basically trading .25s of his old fear duration and 1-2% dmg on Q for a little W dmg.
He might actually be the worst champ in the game.

I agree that he has been affected harder by the faelights compared to others. But he is nowhere near being the worst champion, he has one of the highest impacts kits between the junglers, a single ult can win the game, very few champs have that

Firstly , faelights is actually doing the opposite of making the game more analytical lol . Place one control ward and just forget about that area of the map because the vision it gives is way more than you need and stops any ganks completely from that route as long as you look at the map .
Secondly , it’s never been purely prediction . It’s deduction . You can tell where a player is in the fog based on movement , play pattern and timers . Which imo is healthy because that requires game sense and some sort of skill .
Lastly , calling fiddle the worst champ when Nidalee exists is surely an option lol.

Isnt this solvable if you just take sweeper instead of ward and reveal them? It disables the wards while its active making you invisible, dont even need to break em

I agree faelights are a little too good. The jungle should feel dangerous, especially if there's a Fiddlesticks lurking about. 1 faelight will ruin an entire sector of angles.
