Maokai vs Veigar

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Control side brush with saplings to deny Veigar and ADC safe positioning and vision.
Use (W) root from fog to set up engages with ADC follow-up on overextended targets.
Prioritize river vision and (R) placement to control dragon area and start fights in choke points.

Trading pattern

Stack saplings in brush to zone Veigar and force his ADC out of position.
Engage with (W) root only when ADC can immediately follow up for kill pressure.
Hold (Q) knockback and (R) root to peel or counter-engage if Veigar uses (E) cage aggressively.

Danger windows

(E) cage creates a high-risk zone for ADC if caught inside or near brush.
Veigar's level 6 (R) burst threatens execute-style kills on low-health targets.
Losing brush control allows Veigar to safely stack (Q) and set up poke or burst windows.

Early game

Win level 2 by coordinating (W)+(Q) to threaten Veigar and enable ADC trades.
Deny Veigar brush access early to prevent safe stacking and (E) cage setups.
Time wave crashes to create ADC follow-up windows and open roam opportunities with river control.

Power spikes

Level 2: (W)+(Q) combo unlocks strong engage and ADC follow-up pressure.
Level 3: Full sapling control enhances brush dominance and poke threat.
Level 6: (R) enables powerful engage or peel in narrow river paths for objective fights.

Win conditions

Convert brush control into denied enemy ADC positioning and forced recalls.
Layer (R) root through river choke points to secure dragon and objective setups.
Roam after wave crashes with ADC safe to extend pressure mid or vision control around dragon.
