I...don't really see how Fizz is OP. Speaking as someone who doesn't own him, nor have I seen one in probably a good 3 months now. His lanning phase seems pretty pathetic since he's a melee AP/assassin type champion. Outside of his W, all of his spells are pretty costly, and he doesn't exactly have a huge mana pool to begin with.

Damage wise, it seems like pre 6 his only real damage would happen when he tags you with his Seastone Trident, which requires him get into melee range against you. And if he's using Playful/Trickster to get away, then congratulations; you just caused Fizz to burn at least 90 mana to avoid your attacks for a roughly one second?

His ult has pretty high base damage, and a great scaling rate; but isn't that the point of an ultimate? It's a hard hitting skill, but is also his only ranged spell, only form of hard CC, has a fairly long cool down early to mid game, and is very costly mana wise if you don't have a ton of regen.
