15:40 : "I actually don't really take damage." (less than a second later) "I'm dying!" / 26:55 : "Turn around I'm really weak." "Wait! Wait a second!" (dies)
As a Fiddlesticks main, I recommend Ignite or Exhaust over teleport. You noticed that people run away rather easily, with Exhaust you can be sure to get that heal off to bait people in and keep them in your ult longer, while Ignite it finishes off those low health targets.
13:10 The fact that you have to level your skills up twice blows my mind. Especially at lvl 11 like you did a hole river fight with a missing point in your ability ? just too good ig
25:28 what happened here is Renata's Q displaced Fiddle as he was winding up his drain cast, but before it had actually started draining! That's why it looks like it didn't interrupt the drain but in fact he wasn't draining yet. I saw this by watching his W cast frame by frame (using , and . ) P.S.: Pekin's reaction to this interaction was the best part of watching this frame by frame :)
I think that once your opponents start to spec into anti heal as they did in this game, rocketbelt becomes a far better mythic on fiddle compared to riftmaker. So often in this gameplay we saw ults falling just short and enemies able to kite away. Thanks for the informative commentary as always, cheers
@@AliHassan-mk6jp rylais is still good. It makes anybody in his ult slowed without the risk of missing an e. And you can only q one person. Just because you always have slows doesn't mean much
I like how Pekin is so worried about rune page and he keeps apologizing 😂 Rune page is just an attachment - not an important component. Thank you for picture but mostly, thank you for such gameplay and explanations!
Props to Sera for the timing on that shield/stepping in to block the Akshan ulti at the end. That would've been gg the other way with how hard you were tearing them up.
IM a kindred mid main...very good 10/10. Spec into any Mythic of your choice followed by Wits end against mages (it makes you really durable) and then play with your jgl for marks. Instead of invading by yourself for a mark, you can do it with your jgl! No one sees it coming :D
Pekin, you're awesome. Your commentary is far and away the most insanely valuable tool that I've ever had to teach me high level macro. Your patience and ability to own mistakes is incredible. Now, with you playing exotic picks I get to learn champs that I'm awful with or just generally unfamiliar with how they function and what they intend to do. I hope everything good for you in the future. Thanks for all the hard work you put into your channel.
cant belive i was entertained by a fiddlesticks for 37 mins straight XD. Good game man, its very cool and kinda funny in a way you being so serious and incredibly informative like "tryhard" vibe WHILE PLAYING OMNIVAMP FIDDLE MID Very cool video, well deserved like!
Super cool, almost makes me want to try fiddle again. You can really see Pekin's skill in lol because he just so confidently plays around his champ's kit even when it seems like he's losing a trade or something. Each time he'd use w on the wave, I'd think of the mana cost and how he should probably just use it for when he's low and blah blah blah. He played fiddle almost effortlessly because he understood the risks and rewards of the champ's kit. Like, it becomes really obvious to me as to why I'm in silver and he's in challenger XD. You can see he just trusts his micro skills and knows his champs. Really well done Pekin! Also, the off-meta fun AP mid picks are really, well, fun XD. Keep them coming!!
Man that Fiddle skin looks good... maybe I should purchase it using Pekin's LOL affiliate program :thinking: Thanks for the video though! Tbh I think your lower elo content is just as banger as your high elo content because 1) I think you're very "ethical" about it being smurf content, like not trying to hide that it's smurfed and being transparent about the ranks of your opponents and 2) the level of educational is pretty similar I think, if not more applicable to the majority of players because the amount of abusable mistakes your opponents make in these videos is gonna be WAY more similar to the amount of abusable mistakes your average viewer will come across in their own games.
That explanation of letting them start baron vs getting a pick was very educational, makes me understand even more the gap between d3/2 (me) and challenger. I love the educational commentaries.
Hey! Just wanted to tell you that this is the video that made me decide to subscribe to your channel. I've watched Zwag's videos to fall asleep for quite a while now, and you popped up in my feed about a month ago I think. Though I've fallen asleep during this vid, I've came back to it these two last evenings to finish it (unlike I usually do), and found it super satisfying. It has to do with the champion you're playing, yes, because I've loved Fiddlesticks since his rework even tho I'm not a jungler but a midlaner. But I think it has more to do with how you view your own videos as "commentaries" instead of just content. During this video I really felt like I was in a private coaching session and like you taught me to play league better. Anyways, just wanted to say thank you and to make u a little proud of yourself (cause you have reasons to be) if you ever read this!
I love fiddle so much and play him when I can, and you're absolutely right at 20:34, the only cc that can't stop a fiddle ult is snares/roots but depending on when they hit you with it you'll be rooted in you're new destination after the teleport
At 19:50 My theory is that Fiddlesticks R is a channel that cannot be started if you are rooted or grounded. The blink will happen if you complete the channel, even if you are rooted or grounded. Roots do not interrupt channels. I think Renata lost vision and could not displace you, and so could not interrupt your channel.
The fact that Pekin often just leaves a level up sitting there for several minutes and even goes into fights without leveling his skills triggers my OCD so hard lol xD
Before they nerfed healing from creeps, i just played full tank fiddle. It was a lot easier to win trades that way, and you still had enough dmg to kill. Sadly that was not to last.
Girl. You go! Again making this game look so easy. Low-key makes me want to play. As soon as I start playing my lag or lack of skills makes me not want to play 😅. Any whoooo, love love love your videos!
As somebody who is at best bronze tier, these videos make me want to play, even if I'll always be absolutely garbage at the game. As long as I'm having fun, it's playable. Teammates tend to just lose their minds over normal game losses, but I guess that's just the newer generation if gamers mentality. Play for fun, if somebody wants to tilt, let them. They might just quit and be happier.
Because you went into the rank first, I have to assume that people must give you a hard time about normals. I don't know about them, but I'll watch your content regardless of the ELO. Thanks for another entertaining video.
I mean when you ult and passive fears dont use your e cause you will waste the duration on your passive fear just use w so you can channel it fully and prevent kindred from using ult there is no need for the silence
Ain't watched the game yet but idk why challenger elo is so important to some people like shit man diamond is high elo to me and statistically a lot of other people KEEP UP THE UPLOADS :D
For drain mages with executes like Fiddle and Morg, dark harvest is actually amazing since it drops them to a lower current health faster and therefore scales your damage. It's a bit stronger on Morg than Fiddle since her W AP ratio scales with the missing health, therefore all of it's damage ramps whereas Fiddle only gets execute on the last tick, but same idea applies.
All the way from the caribbean unfortunately my pc is not able to run lol because it is prehistoric so i come up here to watch him play because he's epic
OHOHOHOHO, SO MY SEASON 6 ONE-TRICK PICK WAS NOT FULLY PATCHED, EVEN POST REWORK?????? It's time to get to challenger, only playing my good and old Fiddle mid, just like a horror movie for the enemies 😎
15:40 : "I actually don't really take damage." (less than a second later) "I'm dying!" / 26:55 : "Turn around I'm really weak." "Wait! Wait a second!" (dies)

yes thats what the spells do good job. im pretty sure he knows what they do though

@@theangler1922 thanks bro I'm having a good day how about yourself
@@brawln9550 average Leauge player
Cleanse to counter antiheal on ignite also good
Thanks to your videos i decided to start playing league again after 10 years... Yes 10 years. Thanks :D
I am so sorry
You poor, poor man
*Chuckles* You poor fool...
Unfortunate
Haha its ok I play with 3 premades. Its fun so far
13:10 The fact that you have to level your skills up twice blows my mind. Especially at lvl 11 like you did a hole river fight with a missing point in your ability ? just too good ig
High elo or not, it’s really cool listening to your commentary and hearing your thought process and approach to various challenges throughout the game
its always the commentary and rarely the game for me
I agree with your statement.
25:28 what happened here is Renata's Q displaced Fiddle as he was winding up his drain cast, but before it had actually started draining! That's why it looks like it didn't interrupt the drain but in fact he wasn't draining yet. I saw this by watching his W cast frame by frame (using , and . )
P.S.: Pekin's reaction to this interaction was the best part of watching this frame by frame :)
Yeah it was literally one frame away from cancelling it wow.
I think that once your opponents start to spec into anti heal as they did in this game, rocketbelt becomes a far better mythic on fiddle compared to riftmaker. So often in this gameplay we saw ults falling just short and enemies able to kite away. Thanks for the informative commentary as always, cheers
I wonder if rylai would be a nice item to pair with riftmaker
@@Gorecatto if they were in his ult aoe they would be in his ability range his E and Q both already apply slows of 30% or higher
@@AliHassan-mk6jp rylais is still good. It makes anybody in his ult slowed without the risk of missing an e. And you can only q one person. Just because you always have slows doesn't mean much
I like how Pekin is so worried about rune page and he keeps apologizing 😂
Rune page is just an attachment - not an important component. Thank you for picture but mostly, thank you for such gameplay and explanations!
Yeah we're here for pekin's great commentary and gameplay :D
he was apologizing for showing the wrong page not taking the wrong runes.
Props to Sera for the timing on that shield/stepping in to block the Akshan ulti at the end. That would've been gg the other way with how hard you were tearing them up.
37:20 this "Wow that sucks" was hilarious. :D
I like how you are playing a lot of junglers mid. Can you try Kindred or Kayn mid?
I’d love to see blue Kayn mid
IM a kindred mid main...very good 10/10. Spec into any Mythic of your choice followed by Wits end against mages (it makes you really durable) and then play with your jgl for marks. Instead of invading by yourself for a mark, you can do it with your jgl! No one sees it coming :D

15:39 I laughed so hard and pill my drink on my mouse. This is why I love Pekin's video.
"I don't actually take damage I'm dying" all one sentence 😆
"Before you click off and think it's low elo..."
Sir I am Bronze as fuck, im here to be entertained

I love these weird pick videos, especially the ones in higher elo
It's less about the winning and more about seeing pekin struggle or make do with random stuff it's so cool
Man that Fiddle skin looks good... maybe I should purchase it using Pekin's LOL affiliate program :thinking:

Wait is there actually an affiliate program for league??
That explanation of letting them start baron vs getting a pick was very educational, makes me understand even more the gap between d3/2 (me) and challenger. I love the educational commentaries.
It's always satisfying to watch a certain kind of champs users going from cocky to unconfortable in lane
I seen fiddles and I clicked, keep up the great work much love!

Would rylise be good on fiddlesticks? Sort of like swain with his ult?
I don't really care whether the content is low elo or high elo, I just like to see the goofy picks.
Pekinwoof talks about draining people for 30 minutes
23:00 - Jhin timed that so poorly- I'm crying.
36:48 Jhin: who is this fiddle??
Pekin of course!
I love fiddle so much and play him when I can, and you're absolutely right at 20:34, the only cc that can't stop a fiddle ult is snares/roots but depending on when they hit you with it you'll be rooted in you're new destination after the teleport
Wow your last teamfight was incredible. Ggwp. So educational to hear how you're navigating these situations.
It was really good hearing you explain the thought process behind the win con and then why you were ulting into the baron fight at the end
26:55 the roleplaying killed him xD
this bruiser-style build could actually be insanely fun to play top lane
You can flash right after the casting time of R to get the extra distance and get the fear off :D just so you know♥️
At 19:50
My theory is that Fiddlesticks R is a channel that cannot be started if you are rooted or grounded. The blink will happen if you complete the channel, even if you are rooted or grounded. Roots do not interrupt channels.
I think Renata lost vision and could not displace you, and so could not interrupt your channel.
Oops that's more or less exactly what you said afterwards. Wekp, here's my comment forntha algorithm I guess.
I’m trying to fall asleep to this but I hear a scream every 6 seconds
5:10 Riot spaghetti code Kindred jumpscare
12:30 that Camille outplay was amazing
one thing about fiddlesticks mid. you can stand still to proc your passive and then use any ability and it will fear even if they have vision
can't you set it to the in-game rune page next to your champ icon, where stats normally are?
The fact that Pekin often just leaves a level up sitting there for several minutes and even goes into fights without leveling his skills triggers my OCD so hard lol xD
Keep up the awesome variety champ vids 👌
What rune should you use instead of conq?
We need to do our part. Give our boy Pekin a comment and like, so we can watch actual high level content
Hello , thanks to your videos and what is your rune ?
18:44 Renata pushing you to Sylas lmao lore accurate Renata
Im surprised you dont just show the runes in post. Its kinda cool you do it live
Before they nerfed healing from creeps, i just played full tank fiddle. It was a lot easier to win trades that way, and you still had enough dmg to kill. Sadly that was not to last.
Eve, and now Fidle, will Pekin play all the junglers in mid?
Girl. You go! Again making this game look so easy. Low-key makes me want to play. As soon as I start playing my lag or lack of skills makes me not want to play 😅. Any whoooo, love love love your videos!
burh when i tell you I literally threw my arms up in excitement when you won that fight saving Camille
18:44 - Enemy Renata done killed her own ally Silas by throwing you at him. Even with Hour Glass that's still manslaughter.
LOVE this commentary!
Pekin hitting us with the variety content
I tried this recently and conquerer wasn't doing anything.... they must have altered conq since this?
Watching this makes me realize exactly how completely overloaded Akshan and Sylas are.
fun fact renatas Q disokaement doesnt stop channeled abillities unless you get the stun portion
17:23 There is. It's called Yone.
missed opportunity to call this strat Middlesticks
"full duration suck off" XDDD love your vids Pekin
This kayn really showed me how to jungle, cuz I do like the champ but am awful at both jungling and understanding how to pilot him
you missed the great opportunity to call it Middlesticks
Middlesticks Mid is a lane bully

what are your runes for fiddlestick mid?
Great video. Nice ult at the end.
This champo is specially good into akali and leblanc , maybe fizz and vladimir. Invisible and untargetable people
I mean when you ult and passive fears dont use your e cause you will waste the duration on your passive fear just use w so you can channel it fully and prevent kindred from using ult there is no need for the silence
To me, you're always Top 5 LoL content.
It's a f■cking scandal that you don't have more views. I don't get it.
This is gonna be quite difficult bevause of high elo. As mid and jng proceed to turret feed
i’ve been playing this and many junglers as roaming mid and it’s fun and good ive been climbing well
It’s funny that chat wanted him to turn the announcer on bc it’s Ahri bc I did the exact opposite lol. Her voicelines are t e r r i b l e
Yo don't worry too much about runes man, you could just switch your in game stats tab to runes and we'd know if we really need to
Oh Pekín and his runes
WAIT I’m never this early!! Haven’t watched yet but can already tell this is gonna be a banger
Great vid Mr Pekin.
First, love fiddle and love u Pekin

Think the ice scepter is fun on fiddle ult, life drain, fear slash all get slow and you get nice AP and HP
can someone elaborate on why you take conq rather than electrocute or comet
Hey pecan theres an item called stopwatch, its really good on fiddle
5:10 these teleporting bugs seem pretty frequent recently
everfrost > drain >fear > drain also sounds pretty fun :D
wait at 5:10 the game showed kindred mid for a split second but she was top ... i m so confused
19:47 Roots don't cancel fiddle ult channel.
Thank you Mr. Pekin
Would have loved the title to be "FIDDLESTICKS MID SUCKS"! XD
Hey pekin. Do you listen to Bladee by any chance?
this was fun to watch :)
ahhh yes, chjat is the one who wanted to listen to ahri all game, for sure for sure, wink wink nudghe nudge
low elo games can also be interesting tho
the most important is your comment in all this ^^
Should have named it “Middlesticks”. Missed opportunity
36:48 jhin is amaze ahaha
All the way from the caribbean unfortunately my pc is not able to run lol because it is prehistoric so i come up here to watch him play because he's epic
sweet victory man
snares cant stop channeling unless she toss you

Where can I find the build?
wouldnt be aftershock better for lane fiddle? it might be my brain being nonexistent
