He is finally getting nerfed, which is great. However, I am still in doubt of how those changes would affect AD Fizz. His AD bruiser build was always viable, and fine, was not broken but I could still carry many games with it since it was an unexpected build. But with the changes, I am not sure if AD Fizz will still be the same or if he will have more or less difficulty against current matchups.

The Q nerf didn't affected AD Fizz at all, since he always used this spell only to proc on-hit effects, such as Sheen.

The W change means that AD Fizz will have a much weaker laning phase. He will have an higher difficulty last hitting and will likely be forced to use AD runes. Also, he will rely a lot more on activating this spell to trade. The removal of Griveous Wounds means that he either is now countered or no longer hard counter sustain based champions such as, , , etc. This change will also mean that cooldown reduction will likely be another core stat for AD Fizz, alongside the current core stats (magic penetration, attack speed, tankyness)

The ult change was actually a buff for AD Fizz. Before it was only used as an AoE CC. But now it is a lot more important, since it will buff Fizz's damage, including his physical damage and the damage done by the items that he buy (such as Triforce/Iceborn Gauntlet). This means that AD Fizz has another reason to build tanky since he can do that and still do a lot of damage. However, you would have to land it perfectly for this to work.
