Early game (levels 1–5)

Fizz owns level 1: he's a mobile melee who can walk up, Q-reset onto you, and use his E hop to dodge whatever you throw while you have no shield uptime yet. Respect his early aggression, farm at range, and don't overextend. His untargetability makes your telegraphed spells easy to sidestep, so don't fish cooldowns you can't afford to lose.
