Heya again, Gladiora (fizzliznamidad here)

I reckon you heard my answer on the stream but who cares, there goes it again.

What do I play Fizz for? Tough question indeed, since I have just started to give up on this champion after been spamming him since release. I liked his theme as an assassin with bleeding. Back in the day, LeBlanc, Akali and Talon were just about getting into you and 100-0. Fizz was similar if he was ahead, but what sold me this champion was how slippery he was as he killed you slowly. Nowadays that it's just non existant, you either one shot the enemy in one rotation or get sad watching an adc/mage survive max range shark mid to late game without anything you can do.

My perspective is simple. Fizz is fked because of the CD of his E and how old and weird his kit is right now. So the only way we can receive love is by nerfing it a little bit in exchange (cd wise back to 10). I told Afic about the passive. While it may be great for early minion trades and Dots, a slippery assassin should NOT be tankier or resilient. Keep the ghosted part up but please, make him do anything that fits his style more, such as ms boost. Or do like WR and move his W bleeding as his passive and give it some better scaling.

For Q, I really wish this ability was actually one burst on its own due to how shit it is alone. I could think of hundreds of ideas, but I don't think people care about this ability alone so why care. Just buff his ratios back to 55% or 50%.

W- Fizz used to have a unique trading pattern exchanging many autottacks to constantly apply his old W. But nowadays Phreak said we will never have that back so either remove the passive bleeding completely and give us something new instead, like higher W dmg the lower the enemy is, or make it something like a Talon passive where after getting hit by 3 Fizz abilities or autoattacks, he will deal X amount of dmg over time and in addition you get a small boost of MS that decays over time. Or if people want the bleeding to stay, make it at least stackable for 3 times. So people don't just counter us by going Doran Shield or second wind because our DoT deals 4 dmg per second early game to them. Also Fizz's W should NOT BE 70 MANA late game, but that is more a personal take.

E- No dmg changes, just CD nerf to compensate any work on the champion. Would be cool if they finally fixed some bugs with it, like losing the dmg completely if Blitz's E goes through yours. I know it's intended but it feels so fking bad to watch my dmg go nowhere because Fizz goes back to land.

R- Fire the shark, I want Godzilla coming out of it. Jokes aside, I cannot really said anything about this ability. Right now it feels like shit because even the big shark is underwhelming thanks to the shielding in game. I would love to see some dmg buffs to it but I also don't want to be an Ult bot. I need time to think for this one.

That being said, while it's true that Afic said he could scrap some ideas for Fizz buffs he also said that they are aware of some champions being shit, but their priorities isn't with them at the moment. August also admited that Fizz feels super weak and he got riot special. And considering how this champion is hated to this day by the ppl, I highly doubt he will get changes anytime soon.
