Read from Ahri's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Fizz.
This is Ahri's own plan; across 10,502 pooled games the lane is leaning Fizz.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Ahri | Fizz has no safe way to engage before his combo tools are online, so your poke goes uncontested — favors Ahri. |
| Level 2 | Ahri | Same pattern holds as your Charm range keeps him from ever getting a free trade — favors Ahri. |
| Level 3 | Ahri | Consistent through this stretch, his melee-reliant kit can't punish your ranged poke — favors Ahri. |
| Levels 4-5 | Ahri | Your lead compounds as he still lacks the ultimate needed to force an all-in — favors Ahri. |
| Level 6 | Ahri | Spirit Rush lets you dodge or punish his fish cast before the root lands — favors Ahri. |
| First item | Fizz | His burst combo finally threatens to punish you before your Charm lands with early items — favors Fizz. |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | Once both are itemized, punishing his all-in cooldowns evens the fight back out — even skill matchup. |
Levels 1-5 you dominate — Fizz can't do much without diving into your Charm range, and Fox-Fire poke punishes any approach attempt, so you should be shoving and denying his farm. Track Fizz Playful / Trickster: matchup-defining — 16s at rank 1 down to 8s at rank 5, and untargetable throughout. Bait it, then spend your burst. Fizz needs to land Seastone Trident autos and Playful/Trickster jumps to threaten you, but your Charm range and Fox-Fire poke punish his approach before he can stack passive damage, so you win these trades clean.
