What if Fizz's Trickster...

Krys Star··2 votes·501 views

Instead of making him invulnerable, caused him to take heavily reduced damage? I was talking about Fiora's Riposte with a friend, and he asked about Lissandra's ult being used on it. I mentioned it'd be negated entirely, but if it was Fizz, the timing could cause Lissandra to waste her cooldown, popping a large pillar of ice where Fizz would stand but doing zero damage to him, even allowhing him to ignore the aoe spread's damage.

I mean, Fizz's Trickster is pretty cancerous to League's health. Fizz typically rushes Hourglass after Lichbane/Runeglaive, and it just makes him incredibly frustrating but also frightening to deal with. Trickster > Hourglass > Trickster again. So what if instead, Trickster does...

50 / 60 / 70 / 80 / 90% reduced damage or 70 / 75 / 80 / 85 / 90% reduced damage

so that Fizz's enemies still have a moment to strike back and not waste long cooldowns oftentimes, while still making Fizz this deadly, slipperly, formidable assassin.

Thoughts?

This would be a kassadin level nerf on him simply due to the fact that on the troll poll he can just get CC'd until the damage reduction is gone and be blown up instantly. Perhaps just make the cooldown of his E a two part cooldown. A long cooldown if he uses it to escape, but if he uses it as an engage and it lands on a champion, the cooldown is reduced by a % amount. This would help with his ridiculous invulnerability time when trying to escape.

That could work too, but it wouldn't be a Kassadin nerf because he'd still have his short cooldowns (encouraging his slipper playstyle). He has insane damage, and that's fine as an assassin (although his aoe burst is a bit questionable), but this way there's more ways to play against Fizz. Atm there are little to not counterplays against him. 'Troll poll' eliminates any opportunity to play against him, unless the Fizz makes a mistake and outplays himself.

The point of his E is to dodge CC. If he didnt, that would make him close to useless. Also Fizz has to get Morello after Lich Bane and then maybe Zhonyas. Mid game its more like Trickster > Hourglass > wait 8 seconds > Trickster too lel.

His passive already makes him take reduced damage.

For some reason.
