Hello,

10/28 Guide Version 0.1 Released

10/29 Guide Version 0.2 Released

Guide Goals:

//Pros


//Cons

Sadly, Fizz has some of the lowest early game stats compared to other junglers. This is due to the fact that he is built to be a mid lane champion.

---

What are some of Fizz's "inadequacies"?

Let's compare him to the averages of other jungle champions.

Stats Health: HP/Lvl: HP lvl 18: HP Rgn: HP Rgn/Lvl: HP Rgn Lvl 18 Damage: AD/Lvl: AD Lvl 18: Atk Speed: AS/Lvl: AS Lvl 18: Armor: Armor/Lvl: Armor Lvl 18 MR/Lvl: MR Lvl 18: Mvmt Speed: Atk Range:

SPACE

Average Jungler 436.5 90.2 1969.9 7.21 0.75 19.87 53.55 3.36 110.71 0.65 2.62 1.02 16.52 3.51 76.22 1.17 49.83 316.33 132.5

SPACE

Fizz 414 86 1876 7 0.7 18.9 53 3 104 0.66 3.1 1.185 13 3.4 70 1.25 51.25 310 175

SPACE

Superior to Average? NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO YES YES YES NO NO NO YES YES NO YES

This places Fizz at Lower Tier Jungling based on Stats as he is only better than the Average Jungler in 6/19 Stats.

However with the proper runes and masteries and thanks to the Jungle Re-work which made it easier to sustain in the Jungle, Fizz can farm the jungle successfully.

**NOTE**

Greater Mark of Attack Speed
Attack speed is necessary on jungle Fizz in order to clear jungle waves faster.

Greater Seal of Armor
Armor will be needed in order to sustain in the jungle.

Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist
Magic Resist for greater defense against enemy AP. Can go Flat MR, but scaling MR is better for Late Game.

Greater Quintessence of Movement Speed
Movement Speed is needed to gank and clear the jungle faster.

---

Other Rune Options

Greater Mark of Precision
Since Fizz's Attack Speed is already higher than most other Junglers, Armor Pen./Magic Pen. can be a viable option to increase his damage output.

Greater Glyph of Magic Resist
For more Magic Resist early game.

1. Decrease the amount of time Fizz spends Jungle Clearing.
2. Increase the Damage Output of Fizz during ganks.

Other Options:

Summoner Spells I don't take:

---

Passive: Nimble Fighter

Fizz's dexterity allows him to perpetually ignore unit collision and take 4 / 6 / 8 / 10 / 12 / 14 reduced physical damage from autoattacks.

---

Ignoring unit collision allows Fizz to Chase/Escape easier because you won't have to deal with Friendlies/minions blocking your path. The scaling physical damage reduction also helps you sustain in jungle.

---

Q: Urchin Strike

Active: Fizz dashes a fixed distance in the direction of his target, dealing his total attack damage as physical damage plus additional magic damage to it. The ability will also apply on-hit effects.

Range: 550
Cost: 50/55/60/65/70 mana
Cooldown: 10/9/8/7/6 seconds

Additional Magic Damage: 10/40/70/100/130 (+0.6 per ability power)

---

Gap closer to catch up to enemies. Can also be used on minions to gap close/escape. To utilize this escape mechanic, you should actively think about clearing a wave in lane if you're about to jump someone. Leaving those minions there may be able to help you escape if the exchange doesn't go in your favor.

Damage dealing. Has a 1.0 physical damage scale making this a fairly powerful nuke. Combined Sheen proc and you have a very lethal damage output with this skill.

---

W: Seastone Trident

Passive: Fizzs autoattacks rend his target, dealing magic damage over 3 seconds that strengthens if the opponent is low on life. Multiple autoattacks will only refresh the duration. The total damage caps at 300 against minions and monsters.
Active: Fizzs autoattacks are empowered for the next 5 seconds, dealing additional magic damage on-hit and causing Grievous Wounds (50% healing reduction).

Cost: 40 mana
Cooldown: 10 seconds

Passive Total Magic Damage: 30/40/50/60/70/(+0.35 per ability power)/ (+4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 % of target's missing health)
Active Magic Damage: 10/15/20/25/30 (+0.35 per ability power)

---

This will be your main damage output early game. It will dish out some heavy DOT which will help finish off an enemy who has escaped under their turret.
Activating it at the beginning of the fight will increase your auto-attack damage and also prevent any healing they might receive from Health Potions or passives such as Volibear's The Relentless Storm or spells such as Soraka's Astral Blessing/ Wish through applying Grievous Wounds.

---

E: Playful/Trickster

Active: Fizz hops onto his trident in a nearby location, becoming untargetable for 0.75 seconds and gaining the ability to use Trickster before the effect ends. If Fizz does not use it, he will slam the ground below him, dealing magic damage and slowing nearby enemies for 2 seconds.
Active: Fizz hops off from his trident to a nearby location, dealing magic damage nearby enemies in a smaller area than Playful. Trickster does not apply the slow.

Range: 400
Playful AoE Radius: 250 (estimate)
Trickster AoE Radius: 150 (estimate)
Cost: 90/100/110/120/130 mana
Cooldown: 16/14/12/10/8 seconds
Slow: 40/45/50/55/60 %

Magic Damage: 70/120/170/220/270 (+0.75 per ability power)
Magic Damage: 70/120/170/220/270 (+0.75 per ability power)

---

This is probably Fizz's most defining skill. It can be used to either Gap close or to Escape. It can also be used to help clear jungle camps faster by jumping over walls and landing AOE damage. However, it's high mana cost can be very taxing on Fizz's low mana pool.

If you only use Playful and don't Activate Trickster, this spell applies a very nice slow. Consider this when ganking. You may need to sacrifice this slow in order to close the gap, but if you can land it you will have a great advantage.

If you're going to dive an enemy champion under turret don't use this spell unless you absolutely have to. Try diving in with Urchin Strike if you can. If the exchange goes wrong and you can't secure the kill, or you end up getting very low health and could die to turret, the "untargetable" part of this spell will allow you to live.

R: Chum the Waters

Active: Fizz throws a fish in a line that will bind itself onto the first enemy champion it hits. If it doesn't hit an enemy champion it will stay on an area, and it will stick to the first enemy champion that walks into the area. The champion that has the fish attached will be slowed.Regardless of position, after 1.5 seconds, a Shark will emerge from the earth to eat the fish, dealing magic damage, knocking up the target, knocking back all other enemies within the area from the center and slowing all enemies in the area for 1.5 seconds.
Range: 1275
Cost: 100 mana
AoE Radius: 250 (estimate)
Cooldown: 100/85/70 seconds
Slow: 50/60/70 %

Magic Damage: 200/325/450 (+1.0 per ability power)

---

SHARK! This spell is not only a great spell for ganking, but it also works well in late game team fights. Landing it in the right spot can allow you and your team to assassinate the enemy carry with relative ease.

You will find out very quickly that it isn't the easiest spell to land. Practice it a lot and learn to guess where your enemy will run to. Don't worry if you derp your ult every once in a while. It happens to the best of us. Sometimes you just get outplayed.

While ganking try to cast this from a bush as it will be more likely to catch the enemy off guard. Many people make very repetitive and predictable movements while laning. Get into postion, wait for your opportunity... and SHARK!

Skill Maxing Order

R: Chum the Waters Obviously you will want to level as soon as possible. It will greatly affect your already powerful ganking potential. Subsequent points will reduce the cooldowns allowing you to use it even more often. Alongside a blue buff and you'll be yelling SHARK! all game.

W: Seastone Trident Maxing this by level 9 will add greater DOT damage to the enemy helping you and your team secure more kills. It will also increase the flat bonus magic damage applied on auto attacks.

Q: Urchin Strike Put one point in this at level 2. Max this by level 13. It deals some hefty damage after getting some attack damage and combines phenomenally with Sheen procs.

E: Playful / Trickster Put one point in this at level 3 and then max it last. The damage output from the item is minimal in this build. Use it as a utility or in some cases a slow.
