Eh, the way things are going support might be a better option. His damage is incredibly great but his kit just doesn't let him get off those great numbers. The one thing that especially prevents this is the channel to his Crow Storm. But if they were to take that away he would be too OP. He is a finicky champion when it comes to tweaks and balances.

Also, with champions coming out with such great mobility is taking away from his potential. Such as Ahri's ult, for example. She can easily get out of the range of Fiddle's drain; Ziggz can use his explosive charge to make distance as well as knock Fiddle into the air, there-in, breaking the channel of Drain. Atop of all this Fiddle has some quite hefty mana costs for his skills. Some people have suggested jungle fiddlesticks but if his blue buff is taken at start of the match he can no longer jungle because of the mana costs.

Overall, fiddle is falling behind and surely needs a rework in some of his areas. Only decent thing about him is the duration of his fear, which I am no fan of it being that long honestly. Three seconds is a bit excessive.
