I disagree with AP Fizz being better than AD Fizz and having more survivability. Personally I like AD Fizz more, but I know that both have their strengths, which are different.

Also, AD Fizz does not necessarily have to be played on the jungle. I have tried it on the top lane (I don't use it on the mid lane because that's the place where the APCs usually go, unless there is another champion on my team who can play the role of the APC and there are no other champions on my team who can play the role of a bruiser/tank).

AD Fizz is amazing at top lane and I personally like it better than on jungle because he has more gold to spend due to extra farm, and an extra slot that does not have to be dedicated to a jungle item. I usually build BotRK, Iceborn Gauntlet, Mercury's Treads, Randuin's Omen, Banshee's Veil and Maw of Malmortius when I go top. With that said, I still have to test it against most champions to see which are AD Fizz' good and bad matchups. At the moment, I won my lanes against Shyvana, Jax, Vladimir, Renekton and Yasuo, and lost against Wukong and Xin Zhao.

I disagree AP Fizz having more survivability. AP Fizz build only damage items, and Zhonya does not count because every AP can built this item for survivability. Maybe a Guardian Angel, but AD Fizz can build that too. The thing is, AD Fizz builds tanky items, that's why he has more survivability, he can survive on teamfights far better than his AP counterpart, and still does considerable damage. The trade off is that AD Fizz does less damage. He can't instantly kill a squishy target, but can do so and not explode if focused, and has an easier time against tanky targets.
