Champion Portrait of Ahri
Ahri
Favored
91353%+354+789This is a highly mechanical skill matchup that is slightly Fizz favorable. Timing your E to avoid her E (Charm) is the literal key to winning this matchup. Post-6, exploit the fact that Fizz's R cooldown is lower than Ahri's (at rank 1/2). Trade ultimates, base, and re-engage quickly when your R is back up but hers is not.

Champion Portrait of Yasuo
Yasuo
Very Hard
51550%+109+236Yasuo's Wind Wall makes landing a decent-sized R nearly impossible. When all-inning, use the Q-R animation cancel combination instantly to ensure you at least land the smallest shark, dealing ultimate damage through his Wind Wall. Always pop his passive shield and Bone Plating first with an auto-attack or Q. Focus on burst damage only, as long fights favor his sustained damage.
Champion Portrait of Syndra
Syndra
Easy
46561%+607+1,108Syndra can poke you down with excellent spacing. She is Syndra-favored early, but Fizz usually wins post-6. Your E is the most crucial ability, as it can dodge her Q, W, E (Stun), and her R (Ultimate). If she is very strong, you should save E specifically for her R.
Champion Portrait of Zed
Zed
Very Hard
44147%-108-348Zed is one of the few champions against whom you should consistently rush Zhonya's Hourglass first item. The moment Zed casts R (Death Mark) on you, you must instantly press E to avoid the Death Mark being applied. Crucially, wait for him to use W or Q defensively before you commit your full assassination attempt. If you ult him, you must space out immediately so he cannot R onto you and dodge the shark damage.
Champion Portrait of Viktor
Viktor
Favored
39958%+424+1,082Viktor is annoying early due to Q and E poke. Similar to Syndra, once you hit level 6, he becomes easily killable with your combo. You can use E to dodge his E laser and soak some of his R ultimate damage.
Champion Portrait of Galio
Galio
Easy
38852%+545+1,419Galio is extremely difficult to kill post-level 6 due to his magic shield (W). Your window to win is narrow: play hyper-aggressively at levels 2, 3, and 4 to secure an early kill before he becomes too tanky. He also has better wave clear than Fizz and can follow your roams with his ultimate (R).
Champion Portrait of Akali
Akali
Very Hard
37046%-153-332Akali's early Q spam is difficult to manage. Do not engage with Q; instead, use E to jump out or bait her E (Shuriken Flip) before you commit to Q-ing in. Hitting your R provides true vision, rendering her W (Twilight Shroud) useless for stealth.
Champion Portrait of Malzahar
Malzahar
Even
36453%+669+1,078Malzahar's passive shield (Void Shift) is his core defense against your burst. Always, without exception, pop his passive shield first (with an auto-attack or Q) before attempting your main all-in combo. Also, use your E to instantly clear all his pesky Voidlings, as they will die instantly to the splash damage of E. Malzahar is immobile and easy to hit with R, and the knock-up cancels his ultimate.
