Fizz needs to be looked at

Either tone down his damage or nerf his ult. There is no reason for his ult to be both a slow and a sticky skill shot( no real skill needed when you can't miss). Fizz is really just broken at this point.

If he's throwing it at short range than both the slow and the damage are no more than the worth of a regular skill. It's at long range that it truly shines in which case you have plenty of time to dodge it.

He's actually pretty balance at this point which is reflected by his win rate at most ELOs. He is frustrating to play against I will give you that but that does not make him overpowered.

Winrate is not a standard to gauge a champion's balance. This has been shown before with other champs that were nerfed. I agree Fizz needs looked at though.

There are annoying things about his kit, such as his ult being able to slow. However, the main issue I have is that he has invulnerability on his hop, which is super annoying, because Fizz ends up being really mobile/safe and is an assassin. This allows him to have some of the best and easiest escapes in the game, which I don't think is fair.

Another issue is that FIzz can outright kill you without ult. All he has to do is hop on you, dash at you, and have his Seastone Trident passive up, and then your dead, especially if he gets the electrocute proc off. This is actually really disheartening, because you end up being slowed by auto attack, and then he follows up with the dash after his first hop. They probably either need to tone the damage down on his combo, or remove one of the slows off his kit.

It is really hard to pin FIzz down, even if you are about to kill him after he's wasted his combo/ult, since he can just hop way and has invulnerability.

It's also not easy to engage on Fizz, even if he has cooldowns on his abilities, since he could either dash or hop away, then reengage after his cooldown is off.

If you look at assassins like Katarina or Zed, they are not as safe or mobile as Fizz. Fizz is in a very unique spot.
