Fizz vs Rek'Sai

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Prioritize early jungle tempo and contest river vision to prevent Rek'Sai from snowballing with her strong early ganks.
Use Fizz's high mobility and burst to punish Rek'Sai's aggressive invades and skirmishes before she can leverage tunnel angles.

Jungle Plan

Prioritize three-camp clears into early ganks or counter-invades when Rek'Sai shows on the opposite side of the map.
Contest river control and Scuttle Crab only when your lanes have priority to minimize risk from Rek'Sai's tunnel angles.
Use vision and pathing to track Rek'Sai's first clear and be ready to counter-gank or invade her jungle camps to deny her tempo.

Danger windows

Rek'Sai's early tunnel ganks and knockup (W) create high-risk windows in isolated river fights and jungle entrances.
Avoid fighting Rek'Sai when your health is low or during forced smite contests where she can outduel you with burst and mobility.
Be cautious around early objective setups like dragon or Rift Herald where Rek'Sai's numbers advantage and mobility can overwhelm you.

Early game

Start with a full clear to reach level 3 quickly and unlock your burst combo for safer counter-invades.
Fight for first Scuttle Crab only if nearby lanes have priority to support and reduce Rek'Sai's tunnel gank threat.
Avoid extended early fights in isolated river areas where Rek'Sai can use her knockup and execute chase to punish you.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks Fizz's full engage and escape combo with (Q), (W), and (E); use this to punish Rek'Sai's early aggression.
Level 6 (R) significantly increases your kill threat and burst potential; time all-ins and roams around this spike.
Completing your first AP assassin item boosts your damage and trade reliability, allowing you to pressure Rek'Sai more confidently.

Win conditions

Convert jungle tempo lead into aggressive counter-jungling to deny Rek'Sai's farm and force her into defensive clears.
Use level 6 (R) power spike to secure picks and snowball lanes, enabling easier dragon and Rift Herald control.
Leverage superior burst and mobility to contest Scuttle Crabs and river vision, ensuring safer objective setups and teamfight access.
