Guide to Synergizing Fizz and Riven

Tips for Playing as Fizz with Riven

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 Understand How Riven Will Play

Riven lacks a source of healing or strong defense and must compensate with burst combos. Lead into fights with Broken Wings and Ki Burst, while using Valor to escape and absorb counter-harass.

Riven's Broken Wings locks onto the champion your cursor is over at the time of cast. If you want to move past your opponent, make sure that your cursor is past your opponent as well.

Overall, Fizz sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Riven. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN.

When Fizz is paired with Riven, he gets a little drop in his total damage dealt. This could demonstrate that Riven does not support by providing protection for him to dish out more damage or that her presence on the team also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Fizz is played with Riven on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays without Riven. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Riven.

Additionally, when Fizz plays with Riven on the same team, he typically receives a little less damage than when he fights alone. Receiving not as much damage could indicate that Riven does a decent job of covering Fizz in team fights.

Is Fizz better when played alongside Riven?

There is no one best ally for Fizz that will 100% of the time be his best synergy. However, Riven is a very typical companion for Fizz. By being on the same team as Fizz, she decreases their win rate by -1.0% to 51.6%. This signals that there is not really a strong strategic relationship between Fizz and Riven that results in them performing worse together than without each other.

Riven has a greater difficulty than Fizz. That means you should be very careful when arranging Riven teammates to play with, as they will need a greater level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

Fighting on the same side, Fizz players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to destroy wih physical damage. When paired, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

In contrast, by grouping Fizz and Riven together, you probably will not be providing your other allies enough support. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that offsets this disparity in this pairing's playstyle.

Regardless of the skill of your Riven ally, you need to focus on maximizing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
