Early and Late game Runes
So I recently started playing Fizz and I've seen some builds from some various sites. The Runes I ended up using now are:
- +6.5 Magic Pen.
- +4.5 Armor Pen.
- +45 Ability Power at level 18
- +15 Ability Power
So I'm just thinking, why use +45 AP at level 18? What I mean is that if I get fed early game I'll be good late as well because of items and everything. So that +45 won't do much ( In my opinion ). If I feed early game, that +45 definitely won't do much ( Again, in my humble opinion ). If I stay with a decent score through the whole game, same logic as before. So, I would like to ask. Isn't it better to put Runes focusing only on early game instead of putting some for early and some for late? Because if you get fed early game with the advantage from the, only, early game Runes you will have a huge advantage late game, which means that you won't need as much that +45 AP.

I am not a Fizz specialist but I would never play with those runes in mid lane. First of all, you don't need armor penetration. However, what you really need is Magic Resist runes (glyphs). Either scaling (/lvl) or flat MR runes. If you go flat, you will have more resist in early game. If you go /lvl, you will have less early, but more in late game. This purely depends on your play style. However, I suggest you to use the flat ones. Without MR, any decent mid player will destroy you. Same goes for armor, certainly against AD champions.
What I would do:
- Flat MR Glyphs (blue) x9
- Flat Armor Seals (yellow) x9
- AP or Magic Pen Marks (red) x 9
- AP or Magic Pen Quints x 3 (or put some movement speed in there).
As said, I am far from a Fizz specialist, but what I provided something generic that is a good start.

Answer 2
It's all dependent on which champions you're playing and how you want to play. If you are going to sit back and farm then the something/lvl runes are great since they are more effective than flat runes at the point in the game where you'll start teamfighting. If you play aggressively early game then you will benefit more from flat runes. For example, I prefer using flat runes on nidalee (with exception to the hp/lvl) because her spears and heal don't really do much early game and it gives me a little boost in my hyper aggressive playstyle. Supports, however, can benefit greatly from offensive whatever/level runes because they aren't (in most cases) going to be building much damage. Also, try using magic pen runes on fizz instead of hybrids since he is all magic damage.
