Veigar vs Bard

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 9, 2026

Overview

Use (E) to control brush and deny Bard's engage angles near walls.
Protect ADC from Bard's roam windows by maintaining wave state and vision in river.
Prioritize ADC follow-up after (E) stuns to punish Bard's poke and disengage attempts.

Trading pattern

Use (E) to peel (Q) engage and force Bard to waste cooldowns.
Sync poke and cage cooldowns to trap Bard or enemy ADC for burst follow-up.
Deny Bard brush control to reduce his pick potential and improve ADC positioning.

Danger windows

(Q) wall stun angles from brush threaten ADC access; deny brush to reduce risk.
Bard roaming after wave crash isolates your ADC; keep wave state safe before roaming.
(R) can isolate or stall fights; avoid overextending without vision or ADC backup.

Early game

Contest level 2 only if ADC can follow (Q) stun and Bard lacks roam safety.
Hold brush control to block Bard's wall stun angles and protect ADC access.
Prepare to crash wave safely before Bard's typical roam timer to keep ADC secure.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (Q)+(W) trade, so avoid extended fights without ADC support.
Level 3 grants (E) roam paths; crash wave to punish Bard's roam attempts.
Level 6 (R) enables Bard pick or disengage; track cooldown to avoid risky engages.

Win conditions

Use (E) stuns to create windows for ADC burst and deny Bard's engage angles.
Control brush and river vision to limit Bard's roam and pick potential.
Coordinate with ADC to crash waves before Bard roams and set up dragon vision for objective control.

Tip: For Veigar vs Bard, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Support lane check.
