I suppose. Compared to Fiddle's ult, Drowning has a lower cooldown and mana cost, but does much less damage, has a smaller AoE, and Merick doesn't teleport to a location after the channel. The pull adds some nice utility, but since it only works once per cast, I added the stun so people couldn't simply flash or dash out or immediately focus their damage onto Merick.
