Zed vs Ziggs

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Zed is a high-mobility assassin who wants to pressure Ziggs and punish his immobility.
Use lane pressure to deny Ziggs safe waveclear and poke opportunities, preventing him from freely chipping turret plates.

Trading pattern

Use W+E for guaranteed damage and follow with Q to finish trades before Ziggs can respond.
Punish Ziggs when Ziggs W is on cooldown, as he loses his main disengage and turret execute tool.
All-in with R after landing your combo to dodge Ziggs poke and burst him before he can react.

Danger windows

Be cautious when Ziggs has Ziggs W available, as he can disengage or knock you away.
Avoid engaging if you miss your W shadow or if Ziggs has Ziggs R ready to punish your all-in.
Early levels 1-3 are dangerous since your damage and mobility are limited compared to Ziggs poke.

Early game

Avoid extended trades before level 3 when your combo is weak and Ziggs can poke safely.
Look to engage with W+E once unlocked to punish Ziggs when he mispositions after poke.
Use early wave pressure to limit Ziggs's ability to safely use Ziggs Q and Ziggs E for poke.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks your W-E-Q combo, enabling strong short trades and all-in setups.
Level 6 R allows for deadly all-ins that can dodge Ziggs poke and secure kills.
First lethality item completion significantly increases your burst potential against Ziggs.

Win conditions

Use your mobility and burst to punish Ziggs whenever his W is down or he misses Ziggs Q.
Deny Ziggs scaling by forcing fights and preventing him from safely clearing waves and poking.
Secure kills with your R all-in to snowball lane control and pressure objectives.

Tip: For Zed vs Ziggs, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
