Rogue Inspired showcased a ridiculous jungle Fiddlesticks during Week 2 of the LEC Summer Split.
Rogue Inspired pulls off one of the greatest Fiddlesticks plays in the competitive scene
The game looked almost over for Rogue as Misfits Gaming aggressively pushed together in bot lane. It was late game, 35 minutes on the clock, and Misfits were leading by 1,000 gold.
Little did they know that Rogue had a special surprise in store for them.
As all of Misfits Gaming pushed the base bot laner tower, where Shin “HiRit” Tae-min’s Gwen, Iván “Razork” Martín Díaz’s Xin Zhao, Vincent “Vetheo” Berrié’s Syndra, and Kasper “Kobbe” Kobberup’s Kai’Sa were all huddled together, Rogue’s Kacper “Inspired” Słoma saw an opportunity and took it.
While he channeled Fiddlesticks’ Crowstorm ultimate, Andrei “Odoamne” Pascu’s Nocturne cast Paranoia, which briefly impaired Misfits Gaming’s vision.
This setup greatly exponentially increased the success of Rogue Inspired’s Crowstorm, which caught Misfits off-guard, and and dealt massive damage to their champions.
