It just baffles me how Akali and Kassadin can have their legs broken repeadetly to the point where even their biggest defendants give up on them in favor of other assassins, while Fizz can remain in his ridiculous state for so long. He's the main reason two major AP assassin items got deleted or gutted (Lich Bane and DFG), has been a balancing issue for ages, is the literal incarnation of excessive safety and rivals Riven in terms of "toxicity rep" among players.

What has made Riot willing to leave him as he is? As far as I know he doesn't have the jealous fanbase the size of Lee Sin's, I know some high level players like Bjergsen defend him but that's it.
