I tried to replace 2 cups of icing sugar with corn starch but my fondant is crumbly, and not smooth at all when i roll it. Is there a way to make it not so sickly sweet?

I don't think there really is. It's a sugar dough. You may be able to add a little salt; I know lots of ABC users do that for the same reason.

eww! OP, fondant is supposed to be sweet. It's sugar paste. You could try rolling it really thin (1/16 to 1/8 inch) so only a thin layer sits on your buttercream.
