Guide to Countering Cho'Gath as Fizz

Tips for Playing as Fizz against Cho'Gath

Fizz's spells scale off Ability Power - consider getting items like Zhonya's Hourglass or Banshee's Veil against teams that have high burst threat - and items like Lich Bane or Rabadon's Deathcap if you think you can survive without the Health.

Since Fizz can move through units, find opportunities in lane to walk through minions and apply Seastone Trident's passive - following it up with the ability's active attack after a few seconds.

Fizz's ultimate ability, Chum the Waters, can be aimed at an enemy or towards the area where you think they'll be going.

Advice to Win Against Cho'Gath

Focus on preventing Cho'Gath from reaching his max size.

Purchasing a few HP items decreases the chances of Cho'Gath killing you quickly.
