Fizz is banned in about 11.9% of games at this tier, one figure for the whole champion since bans happen before roles are picked. What ban rate measures.
Fizz's Mid win rate is 1.9 percentage points above an even 50% — Should I Dodge's win-probability model varies by about 4.8 percentage points of standard deviation from lobby to lobby across all ranks, purely from which champions get drawn, so this gap is smaller than that noise, not solid evidence the champion is unusually strong or weak right now.
Fizz is tracked in 2 roles at this tier scope; the per-tier, threat, and counters reporting below all use its highest-pick-rate role, Mid — its numbers in Jungle (0.7% pick rate) stay visible in the table above but aren't carried into the rest of this page.

Our Read on Fizz
Reading the Numbers
Untargetable for a beat mid-dash -- that single trait pushes Fizz's ban rate far higher than his win rate would predict on its own. A perfectly timed ability or auto attack can simply pass through him without landing, which is deeply frustrating to play against regardless of whether his numbers that patch are actually dominant. Teams ban him to avoid ever having that conversation: a champion doesn't need a sky-high win rate to earn a preemptive ban when the alternative is losing a fight to someone your team physically couldn't hit.
When a Teammate Locks Fizz
Give a Fizz teammate space to hunt: he wants to hop onto an isolated target and burst them down before help arrives, so peel-heavy compositions or a backline that's hard to reach take away what he does best. He's strongest roaming for solo kills in the early-to-mid game, so don't expect him to hold a side lane forever once the map opens up.
When the Enemy Has Fizz
Don't wander alone near brush or river against a Fizz: his jump lets him engage and then briefly dodge your response before it lands, and an isolated squishy is exactly what he's built to punish. Stay grouped and he loses that opening, forced to either commit into a fight he can't cleanly escape or sit out entirely. His shark-bait ultimate can still catch a clustered team off guard, though, so watch the water and don't stand still once he has it up.
