Phase Rush

Greater Quintessence of Magic Penetration: Extra magic pen never hurts. Especially on an amazing AP carry like Fizz.
Greater Mark of Ability Power: AP to help you get through the early game and boost your DPS by some small amounts.
Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist: Magic res per level makes you more durable in the lategame, and allows you to get further ahead in your lane the higher your level is.
greater seal of defense: Armor per level makes you more durable as the game progresses. Also makes you more resistant to melee ganks.

Summoner Spells

: Escape, map-crosser and works fantastic in conjunction with now thanks to the new masteries.

space

: Reduces your target's healing, deals true damage, and shares an upgrade with . An amazing spell overall.

space

: Even after the range and CD nerf, it's still an amazing spell, but I don't like to take it seeing how I need to take an extra point in utility to get it's upgrade, while the 1 point in is better, IMO.

Ability explanation

Ability Explanation

PASSIVE: Basically, it lets you path through minions and other mobs (and other champions) as if you've used Ghost. This is what makes Fizz an annoying little poker in lane, seeing how minion counter attack barely deal any damage and you can't get stuck and die thanks to that.
ABILITY ONE (Q): Gap closer, applies on hit effects such as Seastone Trident's DoT, Lich Bane's damage boost, etc. Amazing ability, BIG part of your burst in the mid and late game.
ABILITY TWO (W): Annoying high DPS DoT that increases it's damage when your target's health drops. Oh, right. It also scales of your monstrous AP reserve. Can be activated to deal some extra flat damage. A very important ability all around.
ABILITY THREE (E): Fizz' escape, initiate, dodge... A very, very good ability, and there's debate if this is OP or not, seeing how it can completely negate any damage for 0,5 seconds, and allows you to dodge abilities like Karthus' Requiem. Also works as a gap closer or an initial part of your burst. Very goooooddd.
ABILITY FOUR (R): This is the ability that makes Fizz who he is. He throws a harmless little fish, which latches onto the first champion it hits... Then it comes back as a shark, an armored killer shark or an orca, depending on your skin. 1:1 AP scaling, works as a slow, hard CC, finisher AND a zoning tool, seeing how no-one wants to walk over the area that it leaves behind if it doesn't hit a champion...

Ability Sequence

Ability Sequence Order

> > >

First, I max , because you need it to farm, do annoying poke bursts, be of any use as an assassin, etc. Very important ability.

is next. It's a gap closer, a nice part of your burst, and taking 1 point in it at level 1 allows you to poke.

I max last because all it does is increase it's damage. Now, you might be like "Same with and ..." which is true, but and do good damage with few AP items. starts dealing damage as soon as you get your first , so I like to max it last for that reason exactly.

... Of course, take a point in at level 6, 11 and 16. :>

Items

Items

: Magic pen. One of the three good boots for AP carries. Take Mercury's Treads if there's a lot of CC, and take Ionian Boots of Lucidity if the "long" cooldowns on Fizz' abilities irritate you.
: Amazing item for nearly every AP carry. Sustain, health and mana, a nice boost over time to AP, Health and Mana. Rushing this item WILL make staying in lane WAY easier.
: A MUST! You CAN'T play Fizz without it! Why not? Fizz is a melee AP assassin, so he needs to be auto attacking as well! And with your HUGE AP reserve, this beast's passive is going to be BANANAS! The AP and magic res bonusses are nice as well.
: Health, AP and a slow. All you need for quite a long time. Very good item for Fizz.
: The FILTHIEST, HEAVIEST AP item in the ENTIRE game. 140 AP + 30% of your AP + the 140 AP seems pretty bananas to me. :D An AP carry should never not get this item.
: Seeing how you're using your abilities a lot, you'll gain a lot of mana thanks to this item's passive, and 3% of that will be morphed into AP. It's a nice item, but you can replace it with a second Rabadon's Deathcap.

Farming / Jungling

Farming/Jungling

' farming relies on and last hitting with it. You should always attempt to dodge enemy poking. If you know/suspect a gank coming, back up a little, and make sure you use when their jungler initiates.

Teamfights

FOCUS ALL THE SQUISHIES! It's YOUR job to make AD Carries run for their LIFE! You to them, pop and start bringing the PAIN! >:D THAT'S what should do!

Summary

Summary

As you've probably learned by now, is a highly mobile, highly lethal AP carry. He excels at being annoying and killing AD carries like it's no-one's business.
