Level 2VexAt 2 your empowered Q punishes his walk-ups before his kit comes online.
Level 3VexBy 3 you still out-range and out-trade him, and his E hop even feeds your passive.
Levels 4-5VexAt level 4 you keep bullying him, but he's one point away from flipping the all-in.
Level 6FizzAt 5 Fizz gets the E points to dodge your abilities and all-in you, taking the window.
First itemFizzHis level-6 shark plus first-item AP one-combos you through your fear timing, favouring Fizz.
Two+ itemsVexTwo items in, tracking his E cooldown lets your R and W burst delete him, restoring your edge.

Early game (levels 1–5)
