Very-short-window assassin build: Fizz wins when he turns one precise angle into immediate deletion, then disappears before the answer. The build must therefore serve access, execution, and exit, not merely stack AP as if every game offered a clean dive.
Three builds, one right answer per draft. The advisor reads the five enemies (and your allies) and names who triggers what — the same rule as the Draft MVP sheet and Ask Nexus.
Best Fizz build (Mid Lane): Infinity Orb › Rabadon's Deathcap › Lich Bane › Void Staff › Stormsurge, boots Boots of Mana, keystone Electrocute. Three variants and when to pick each are below.
Standard build maximizing damage output. Use on neutral matchups or when ahead.
15,200 total cost
Nothing dominates on the other side: the standard build maximizes your damage.
Open this draft in the tool →Defensive build adding survivability. Pick this against high enemy damage or when behind.
15,600 total cost +400gAnti-resist build for tanky enemies. Choose when multiple enemies build armor/magic resist.
15,200 total cost
Scores out of 10: where this champion sits against the whole roster, phase by phase. The strip shows its own power ramp level by level — it does not compare across champions.
Your hardest matchups in this role, and the item from your situational list that answers each one.

Same advisor in the Draft (the MVP sheet applies it to your real draft) and in Ask Nexus, which explains the choice. On counters pages: the variant to take against each counter-pick.
Foundational item core, without recent situational additions — kept as a base for understanding the kit. For the up-to-date build, see the section above.
Fizz does not profit from long exposed fights; he profits from short, sharp and lethal entries.

Q-W-E lands three hits inside a second — the proc fires on every assassination combo.
the E (Playful/Trickster) is a leap activant penetration on landing.
Every shark-secured kill stacks adaptive force — a fed Fizz one-shots before full items.
A roaming assassin — stacked takedowns bring forward the point where your combo kills without R.
Haste shortens E's cooldown — your insurance policy is up more often, so your dives can dare more.
