Can We Give Fizz's Playful/Trickster Some Counterplay?

Perhaps put it on a longer cooldown, like 20-25 seconds? Or keep the same cooldown and make it similar to Tristana's rocket jump?

It's really all he has going for him at this point -- Don't get me wrong, it's annoying and I'd love more counterplay to it, but this probably isn't the right way to go about it.

His entire kit is based around it and the counter play is dodging it by playing ranged champions. (Ahri q speed up, Leblanc w, kayle w for speed up) He's the only melee mid laner who doesn't have a ranged attack in their kit. Talon has w, Zed has w q, Yasuo has q (I know its short ranged but its better than fizz range) and so having it that low of a cooldown isnt that bad, especially when early game its pretty expoitable level 1-5 if he misses it or even if he hits it and you can kite back. He's kind of like Kassadin, you don't see people complaining that Kassadin is op, even though is ult has like a 2 second cd late game lol.

Just the weekly "incrase the cooldow on Playful/Trickster" thread for some upvote farming.

That would be great.

Even doubling the current cooldown would help. The cooldown is insanely low for how powerful it is.

Downvote this all you want, but it's true that this champion having a basic skill that completely removes him from the game breaks the game. If Fizz is locked in on the enemy team, you lose.
