Revert Fizz, Rito pls
Hey guys.
With Patch 8.14 Fizz got a change on his W, which makes him as an assassine nearly impossible to play. There explanation was, Fizz players weren't satisfied because they had to wait for the mark. (lel, did you even ask?)
So what did they changed? Riot has removed the triple burst damage on his W with a full mark. Instead he got a small Buff on his W-Active Base Damage and if the target was not killed, a small amount of On-Hit damage for 5 seconds. Yaaaaaaaaaaaay. Because everyone knows, as an assassine it's way more satisfying when you have to aa your enemy to the death.
Fizz struggles now with executing a squishy carry and this is I guess the main reason why his winrate drops far below 50%. Why? Because even if he hits his ult well on a squishy in a group, you can't burst him down, except you're super fed. You need 2-3 auto attacks in addition to kill your target, but there is no time. You'll get cc'd and you just die without getting anything. Before this change arrived, it was possible if you're not behind. After that you died or sometimes you could even escape. I guess his laning phase is still fine, but after that, he struggles.
On the PBE he recieved a buff, but that won't help him that much. He'll get 10 base damage on his W-Active and his R gets 50 base damage and +20% AP ratio. If you hear that for the first time, it sounds really nice, but it isn't.
Fizz still can't use his W On-Hit mechanic in Mid/Lategame. Your initial burst combo with 300 AP does just 120(!) more damage than before. That's nothing!
I want a revert. Riot didn't say that Fizz was too strong and that they want to nerf him, they just explain that change that the mark mechanic wasn't satisfying for Fizz players because they had to wait for their damage. But they're wrong, the mark mechanic was harmonizing with his other abilities pretty much. Also this is a huge damage nerf, because you never auto attack someone for that long time and it doesn't help your burst.
Please rito, don't keep that change. Please don't make him unplayable for months. Just revert him and if he is too strong, nerf him in an other way. I know Fizz isn't the most popular Champ to play against. And I know everyone who is not playing Fizz, enjoys these nerfs, because people find him disgusting or something like that. But he is really f*cked up now and when you keep that auto attack mechanic on an assassine, he will be unplayable for a long time.
Thank you for your attention!
