Fiddles can be very powerful once you get used to him and common enemies you may think to counter him.

Build Hp, resists, and AP. I jungle Fiddles, but some people lane him. You will want that Hp and resists so that when you go to ult, their team cannot just sneeze and kill you. WotA is bad unless you want extra drain power. RoA is a great item on Fiddles, and an eventual Rabadons is necessary. For resists, Abyssal Scepter is rediculously awesome and Zhonyas is nice because it gives 100 AP, but spamming the active is a bad idea, use it to shift them away from focusing you ONLY.

As a jungler, you need blue buff for quite a while, so refuse mid blue buff for a while and gank if they need help. If you notice that the enemy jungler is elsewhere, take his buff, because you are Fiddles, and your buff clear times are very good. The power of your Fear seems to go up exponentially as you level it, because as the game progresses, the value of cc goes up, so never Max Q last.

Learn when to use abilities, a prime example is when facing Nocturne. He will chase you, and put up his shield, then start to fear you. Let his shield run out if he is near no minions, or use Dark wind to disable shield and hopefully bounce back for the silence. If you use pu something on his shield, fear him instantly so he cannot fear you. In all cases, drain his face off, he cannot trade with sustain. I can almost always 1v1 Nocturne.
