How to play it
DO
Respect his ult
His ult almost always means death when you're overextended or he has an item — many Fizzes ult the instant they hit 6.
Punish his E
The moment he uses E he's very vulnerable — expect it to dodge your Q2, then jump on him.
Freeze by turret
Freeze the wave next to your tower so he can't dive you or run you down.
DON'T
Never sit overextended past 6 — his ult from there is almost certain death.
