Ahri can be a tough, or easy lane for Fizz depending on the skill of the opposing Ahri. She has great poke and high kill potential on you if she hits her charm. To avoid this use Playful/Trickster and go aggressive from there as she will be quite vulnerable without her charm. Another important thing to note is that Ahri can use her ultimate to dodge your main damage sources, Chum the Waters and Playful/Trickster, so keep that in mind when going all in.
Akali
Similarly to Ahri Akali is somewhat of a skill matchup. Start flask and play aggressive in the early levels using Playful/Trickster to your advantage in order to dodge her Mark of the Assassin and hit her while she is hidden in the shroud.
Annie
Annie is a relatively easy lane for two reason. You can dodge her stun (plus large amounts of her damage) using Playful/Trickster, and can burst her very easily due to how squishy she is. You also have a huge mobility advantage over her making this an easy lane for your jungler to gank, while making it harder for her jungler to gank you.
Ezreal
Very easy lane post 3 and especially easy post 6. Start flask to nullify his poke and proceed to burst him with 2-3 WQE combos or 1 full combo with ignite.
Heimerdinger
This lane can be an absolute pain. Heimerdinger's towers make it difficult to farm safely and very risky to all in. Using your ultimate when he is amongst all of his towers is a good way to start a play as the AOE damage on top of Playful/Trickster should be able to destroy the towers before they do any significant damage to you. However don't use Playful/Trickster too freely as it is imperative to dodge the damage of his upgraded W and stun from his E. DO NOT GANK HEIMERDINGER!
Jayce
Similar to the lanes of Annie and Ezreal in terms of play style, however a good Jayce has the ability to outplay fizz. Post 6 you out damage him in a 1v1 due to his lack of an ultimate ability. However pre-6 you must be careful of getting poked down with his autos as well as his EQ combo. It is imperative that you dodge this combo with Playful/Trickster otherwise you are in for a world of hurt. Using Playful/Trickster to dodge this combo and go aggressive on him is a great way win trades with Jayce.
Twisted Fate
Easy lane. Each level you gain you kill potential on him rises. Yet again Playful/Trickster has the potential to dodge his main combo (stun card into Q) meaning you have the huge advantage in trades. Post 6 play extremely aggressive as he will not be able to come close to you to farm in fear of dying.
Karthus
Simple lane to win as Fizz due to your mobility. Using Urchin Strike and Playful/Trickster to dodge his Q will enable you win trades against him quite efficiently. Furthermore Playful/Trickster can dodge Karthus' Ultimate abillity, Requiem. This is important to keep in mind after killing Karthus as he will enter his passive and still be able to cast it, so be sure to have either enough health to live, or enough mana to dodge it.
Kassadin
Katarina
LeBlanc
Lux
Orianna
Orianna is one of the roughest lanes for fizz due to her painful auto attack harass. Even if you jump in on her she will be able to sheild and deal just as much damage as you. The only way to win this lane without jungle help is for her to waste mana on minions. Try to play passive and farm under tower. As usual use Playful/Trickster to dodge her abilities, especially her ultimate. Try to avoid picking fizz into Orianna unless you know the match-up well and are comfortable on the champion.
Syndra
Talon
Veigar
Vel'Koz
Xerath
Quite a simple lane to win. Don't eat his poke and you should be fine to 100-0 at level 6. Make sure never to get hit by his stun because that will often end in your death or force you out of lane. Fizz is a generally safe pick into Xerath.
Yasuo
Zed
A rather interesting lane being the match-up of two highly feared assassins. Fizz has the slight upper hand in this lane due to his ability to dodge zeds basic skills and more importantly, Death Mark. However timing is key as Playful/Trickster dodges the ability itself not the actual proc. As usual with zed match ups play aggressive when his shadow is down and be weary of him teleporting to the shadow to auto attack you, as they will hurt more than yours. At level 6 you win the 1v1 provided you A) dodge his ultimate with your e or at least his q and e.
B) Land your ultimate on him as it is imperative to your burst.
After buying sheen rush seekers armgaurd immediately and proceed to buy Zhonyas Hourglass to avoid his ultimate more reliably. Only pick fizz into zed if you are very comfortable on him and are good with timing Playful/Trickster.
Ziggs
Ziggs is a similar lane to xerath in regards to how you play it. Dodge as much of his poke as possible and all in him as much as possible. He is very squishy and will thus be very easy to kill. Fizz is a very safe pick into Ziggs.
Zilean
Zilean is a very heavy poke lane like ziggs and xerath however his poke is not as easy to dodge. Playful/Trickster still dodges Zileans Q, however this is the only way do dodge it and it has a shorter cooldown and lower mana cost. Ensure you establish a lead on Zilean before level 6 to ensure that his ultimate is less useful. Fizz is a generally safe pick into Zilean.
Diana
Diana is the hardest counter to fizz. She out-trades you and rushes abyssal scepter to simply dumbster you. In ranked scenarios simply do not pick Fizz into Diana or your going to have a bad time.
Brand
Another easy mage match-up. Use Playful/Trickster to dodge his Q stun and you're set to win lane. When Playful/Trickster is on cooldown play safe as brand has very high burst potential especially post 6. Fizz is a strong pick into Brand.
Nidalee
Nidalee is a matchup the is mostly dependent on if she hits her spears. If she misses a spear go aggressive on her as that is a main source of her damage. Watch out for her auto poke in lane as well as being wary for traps. Post 6 you win 1v1's with relative ease. Fizz can be a safe pick into Nidalee.
Hello everyone my name is FieryFenrir, i'm a Fizz main on the Oceania server and this is my first MobaFire Guide, I hope you find it useful and/or informing. The main purpose of this guide is to offer in detailed match ups for Fizz in the mid lane as well as information on how to play team fights.
Pros and Cons
Pros and Cons
Pros
Highly mobile
Great single target burst
Ability to become untargetable
Strong Level 6 power spike in lane
Cons
Has rough laning Phase match-ups
Very squishy and easy to pop in team fights if played incorrectly
Summoner Spells
Summoner Spells
Ignite Flash
Very basic here Flash for the free escape or gap closer and Ignite to finish off the kill. Other options include exhaust which can be taken instead of either spell however I recommend sticking with the above.
