Fiddlesticks
jungle · Farming scaler
Clears camps rather than ganking early, which leaves the lanes free to play forward before six.
He farms to six, then ults from fog. Ward the deep brush near your lane before then.
Fiddlesticks' Crowstorm from unwarded fog is the whole champion; his effigies fake wards, so real deep vision before 6:00 decides lanes.
Nidalee
jungle · Jungle invader
Starts the fight inside your own jungle, so tracking and numbers matter more than pathing.
She hunts early scraps in your jungle. Don't chase her, and cover your jungler's entrances.
Window: before three minutes
Nidalee wins any early fight that starts with a landed spear; invades and counter-ganks are her game, chasing her is losing.
