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.

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.
