What makes Fizz dangerous
Fizz dashes through units with his Q, becomes untargetable during his E pole-vault (dodging turret shots, ults and targeted CC), and sticks a shark-summoning fish on you with his ultimate for burst and a knock-up. He deletes squishies and is very hard to pin down.
How to play against Fizz
- 1Save your key targeted ability — he will pole-vault (E) to dodge it. Wait for E to be on cooldown before you commit your combo or ult.
- 2Dodge his ultimate fish — it's a slow-moving skillshot. If it doesn't stick, his whole burst combo fizzles.
- 3He's melee and squishy. Poke him down before level 6 and zone him from farm; a ranged mid can bully his lane phase hard.
- 4Group with your team — he thrives on isolating a lone carry. With peel and vision he can't get on the target he wants.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Squishy melee — dies to burst and dives.
- ✓Cooldown-reliant: once E is down he has no escape.
- ✓Ultimate is a dodgeable skillshot.
- ✓Weak lane sustain — loses extended ranged trades.
Abilities & how to counter them
What each of Fizz's abilities does — and how to play around it.
P
Geschickter KämpferFizz kann sich durch Einheiten bewegen und erleidet verminderten Schaden in festgelegter Höhe aus allen Quellen.
Q
SeeigelstoßFizz springt durch sein Ziel, wobei er magischen Schaden verursacht und Treffereffekte auslöst.
W
Seestein-DreizackFizz' Angriffe lassen seine Gegner bluten, wodurch sie im Laufe von einigen Sekunden zusätzlichen magischen Schaden erleiden. Fizz kann seinen nächsten Angriff verstärken, so dass er zusätzlichen Schaden anrichtet und seine weiteren Angriffe für kurze Zeit stärker werden.
E
Verspielt / TäuscherFizz hüpft in die Luft, landet geschickt auf seinem Speer und kann nicht anvisiert werden. Aus dieser Position heraus kann Fizz schwungvoll auf den Boden krachen oder noch ein weiteres Mal springen.
Strong: pole-vault makes him untargetable, dodging targeted spells, ults and turret shots. Weak: on cooldown he has no escape — commit your combo after E is down.
R
Köder auswerfenFizz wirft einen Fisch in eine Richtung, der sich bei Berührung an einen Champion heftet und diesen verlangsamt. Nach kurzer Verzögerung bricht ein Hai aus dem Boden, der das Ziel hoch- und weitere Gegner in der Nähe zur Seite schleudert. Getroffene Gegner erleiden magischen Schaden und werden verlangsamt.
Strong: sticks a fish that summons a shark for burst and a knock-up. Weak: it's a slow skillshot — dodge it and his whole combo fizzles.
Itemization
Fizz is AP burst, so magic resist wins: Mercury's Treads plus an MR item (Spirit Visage, Kaenic Rookern), and a Zhonya's Hourglass or QSS to survive his ult stick. Hexdrinker/Maw is great on AD mids into him.
