Fiddle's fear is waaaay better than nocturne's. For one thing it scales way better with fiddle's other abilities, and for another thing it can't be cancelled. Nocturne's gives fair warning and can be escaped from fairly easily using flash or another escape. Once you get used to fighting him he isn't even really a problem during laning even if you ARE near him, as his q is pretty predictable and dodgeable, you just have to watch for it, and if he misses that, he can't really get you, and you're free to harass him for another 10 seconds. Even if it DOES hit you, the initial damage isn't much and he'll usually know better than to chase after you alone unless you're at low health to begin with, which you shouldn't be... you're laning against one of the best chasers in the game.
