Viego vs Fizz

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Viego thrives on skirmishes where he can secure the first takedown to trigger resets and snowball objectives.
Prioritize river fights supported by lane priority to leverage your dueling and gank threat against Fizz's burst and mobility.
Manage cooldowns and health carefully to avoid isolated fights before your item spikes, as Fizz's early burst can punish you.

Jungle Plan

Path toward lanes with strong crowd control to maximize your (W) stun setup and secure first takedowns.
Contest first Scuttle only when nearby lanes have priority to avoid risky isolated fights.
Use resets from successful skirmishes to pressure dragon and Rift Herald, denying Fizz scaling and forcing team fights on your terms.

Danger windows

Be cautious of early river fights before level 6 or first item when Fizz's burst and (E) mobility can punish isolated engagements.
Avoid low-health clears or forced smite fights where Fizz can capitalize on your vulnerability and snowball.
Watch for Fizz's ultimate availability as it marks a spike in his kill threat; hold key defensive tools and vision around objectives.

Early game

Start with a clear path that allows you to reach level 3 and contest Scuttle Crab near lanes that can assist in fights.
Avoid early invades without lane priority or vision as Fizz's mobility and burst can punish overextensions.
Focus on river control and counter-gank setups rather than blind invades before your first fighter item.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) unlocks execution and repositioning, enabling you to start reset chains; look for fights where you can finish low targets.
First fighter item significantly boosts your sustained dueling and reset potential; fight around lanes that can move to convert kills into objectives.
Respect Fizz's level 3 burst combo and ultimate window by avoiding fights without cooldown advantage or lane support.

Win conditions

Convert first takedown resets into dragon and Rift Herald control to snowball map pressure and deny Fizz scaling.
Use your (E) camouflage and (W) stun to create unpredictable ganks and counter-ganks in river and jungle paths.
Track Fizz's pathing and ultimate cooldown to safely invade or contest camps, leveraging your stronger dueling post-item to deny his farm and impact.
