Riven vs Fizz Matchup Summary

The Riven vs Fizz matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 7 recent matches analyzed, Fizz wins with a 71.4% win rate compared to Riven's 28.6%, giving Fizz a 42.9 percentage point advantage. Fizz dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Riven players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Riven leads by 0.5s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Fizz has a strong advantage in this matchup. Riven players should play defensively, prioritize safe farming under tower, and look for opportunities created by jungle pressure or Fizz overextending. Avoid prolonged trades and wait for team fights where positioning and coordination matter more. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Sustain
1,286Riven
782Fizz
Riven vastly out-sustains Fizz, healing and mitigating 504 more damage per minute.
