Vel'Koz vs Neeko

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Use long-range (Q) angles to pressure Neeko and deny enemy ADC positioning.
Control side brush to limit Neeko's disguise and reduce her engage angles on your ADC.
Prioritize river and tri-brush vision to track Neeko's roam and ultimate threat.

Trading pattern

Use split (Q) angles and (W) poke to chip enemy ADC before Neeko can root or all-in.
Hold (E) for peel or guaranteed knockup to protect ADC from Neeko's engage and ultimate.
Avoid channeling (R) without ADC follow-up or brush control to prevent punishment from Neeko's burst.

Danger windows

Respect (E) root through minions and (R) ultimate knockup for all-in threat on your ADC.
Beware of Neeko's disguise and clone in brush, which can mask her engage timing.
Enemy ADC follow-up after Neeko's engage cooldowns can punish overextensions on your ADC.

Early game

Win level 2 by layering (Q) poke and (E) knockup with ADC follow-up to punish Neeko's engage.
Hold wave near your tower early to keep ADC safe from (E) root through minions.
Deny Neeko brush control to reduce her disguise advantage and limit her engage angles.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (Q)+(E) poke and knockup; pressure with ADC support during this window.
Level 3 grants full poke combo; leverage brush control and cooldown tracking for safer trades.
Level 6 (R) laser burst enables strong all-in or peel; use with confirmed ADC follow-up and river vision.

Win conditions

Convert long-range poke into denied enemy ADC positioning and forced recalls.
Use vision control to safely roam or set up dragon with ADC, punishing Neeko's roam timers.
Leverage (E) peel and (R) burst with ADC follow-up to win favorable 2v2 fights and teamfight entries.
