Ziggs vs Veigar

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 7, 2026

Overview

Ziggs wins by using superior poke and waveclear to force Veigar into defensive farming near turret.
The lane turns on punishing Veigar's immobility and cage cooldown to deny his stack growth and scaling.

Trading pattern

Punish Veigar's last-hit attempts with (Q) when his support cannot immediately trade back.
Use (E) to zone Veigar's approach paths and prevent cage setups.
Save (W) for disengage if Veigar or support tries to engage after cage or poke.

Danger windows

(E) stun zone forces Ziggs to respect positioning and avoid stepping into cage range.
Ziggs is vulnerable when (W) is down, as Veigar can engage or cage more safely.
Enemy support control of brush or engage cooldowns limits Ziggs's ability to punish Veigar's positioning.

Early game

Use early waves to thin and poke Veigar when he commits to last hits on caster minions.
At level 2, pressure Veigar with (Q) poke before he gains (E) stun control.
Keep wave near your side to limit Veigar's safe farming and reduce his cage angles.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) lets Ziggs threaten cross-map burst and turret executes; use this to force Veigar back.
First completed mage poke item reduces (W) cooldown, enhancing lane pressure and turret plate threat.
Veigar's level 6 (R) and stack growth require Ziggs to maintain poke pressure and deny free farm.

Win conditions

Convert poke damage into turret plate damage using (W) turret executes when safe.
Deny Veigar free stacking by punishing last-hit attempts and controlling wave resets.
Use lane pressure to force Veigar recalls, enabling dragon setups and item timing advantages.
