Fizz Used Splash! ... But Nothing Happened!

Champions - League of Legends

Fizz win rate has dropped from ~50% to 43.27% since his nerfs in patch 5.2. THIS IS THE 5th LOWEST WIN RATE OUT OF ALL CHAMPIONS!

They completely crushed his AP ratios and base damage on his Q and W. While I agree his late game damage was pretty unfair at time, this was balanced by his very poor lane phase. With the nerfs to Fizz's pre 6 damage his lane phase is non existent now. You are forced to play EXTREMELY passive before level 6. If you ever decide to trade with your opponent you will be punished for it with your non existent early game damage.

Fizz used to be a high risk high reward champion that rewarded players with risky early all in plays that could give you an advantage in lane, but now he is nothing more than a Magikarp using splash, that you hope one day with evolve into a damage dealing Gyarados.

Riot, you have made my favorite champion nearly unplayable. I wouldn't dream of playing him in ranked anymore (Plat 3). and I feel I would be wasting my time playing him in a normal game when there are so many better champions to choose from now. I wish you would rethink your changes to Fizz and help him get back to the Champion that I used to LOVE! Thank you. item 3070

good, after years of extreme damage, ult canceling intrageteabilty and low risk high reward plays he got the deserved nerf, this game is way better now, i don't have to fear the horrible sight of the enemy middle laner picking fizz, you having to play perfectly and following him arround so the fish doesn't get any kills or he will be the most anoying and frustrating character in the game

i'm happy that fizz got Kha'zixed

Do you know how bad you have to be for people to ban you because they dont want your team to pick him AND YOU ARE NOT A NEW OR REWORKED CHAMPION.

Fizz was not high risk/high reward. Fizz was no risk and high reward. He went from doing absurd bullshit damage early, to being able to instagib anyone late, and escape. He's balanced now, which probably feels pretty bad to the people who got used to playing him when he was a no skill faceroll pick.

His winrate now, is a reflection of those no skill faceroll players picking him, then not being able to faceroll with him, since he now requires a modicum of skill. Fear not FoTM cancer players, something else will be faceroll soon and then you can move on to it.
