How is tank Fizz still a functional build?

Just watched C9 vs TDK - Fizz with ignite and tp was dominating the enemy team (Triforce + full tank)... I thought they nerfed the on-hit and made it again dot.

Because they made a team with fizz in mind. A tank that can survive prolonged skirmishes because he can dash around the fight and sit on trollpole for more than a moment. Because %hp is good against tanks with is the meta that everyone uses because split pushing isn't fast enough to stop 3 tanks from steamrolling your base.

Learn to fucking play before you judge what's OP. It's not fizz. Fizz is just a good pick because his kit has four points in a trifecta of cancer.

every champion is viable if you feed on noobs who have no idea what to do

You know, I'm fairly sure TDK are noobs who have no idea what they're doing. That's how they all got into challenger, and how their team took down Winterfox, a team with Helios, Altec and Pobelter.

hmm. you really got a point there, i didnt think about that. so they must be really good and tank fizz top is just a thing. even OP if he dominated. i guess we need to rework fizz again.

Anything can be tank right now and still do a lot of damage. I'm not even making that up. Great balance.

mixed damage DoT is pretty godmode right now. especially with some of the DoT amps seeing professional play like challenging item 3715 smite and certain champ abilities designed to synergize well with bleedfighting.

He functions the same exact way as Irelia/Wu/Trudle top does.

C9 won because they played better.

He didn't buy any penetration (also no challenging smite), so telling me that he had great dmg is absurd...

 Total Magic Damage: 20 / 30 / 40 / 50 / 60 (+ 45% AP) (+ 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8% of the target's missing health) 」

Active: For the next 6 seconds, Fizz's autoattacks deal bonus magic damage.

「 Bonus Magic damage: 10 / 20 / 30 / 40 / 50 (+ 25% AP)

30 AP from triforce and some bonus from the dragon buff is not "great damage"

Likely build with on-hit damage in mind, he's quite good with just buying botrk and going full tank.

Because he has damage applification on his ult and there are items that give a good deal of damage with one off items item 3153 item 3078 .

He has % health damage passively on every attack, so he can sacrifice some damage. His passive also gives some damage reduction.

Mobility in his E and Q, so he doesnt really need flash. His W deals Health % damage, so he's a really strong duelist. Damage increase on whoever has his Ult on them.

I feel like a lot of it has to do with the 20% damage amp that they put on his ult. He has damage whether he builds for it or not.

As far as I can tell. The Tanky Fizz Build is meant for diving the enemy and getting on the Glass Cannon, which will still hurt them because their glass cannon. You can't however use him as an actual tank, he does not have the CC to be the teams tank.
