LOL newer time 1250 ap :D lok to my buld 100% beteer
you at this build have 583 ap max :DDD my build have 1000 ap :D

1. no tanky stats at all.

2. You get free MR, build a deathcap, a DFG, and then build utility, not AP.

3. Clarity is bad.

4. You start with a meki pendant, but you opt out of the mana regen in utility?

I didn't do very good the first few times I played this build also; It's really all about practice and making sure you can fire off all of his abilities accurately and in a short amount of time.

I was excited to test out your build because I am a big fan of going for straight up AP over everything else, so tried your build. Maybe I was having an off game but I got my butt kicked. Later in the game I was doing better, but still not that good. It seemed to me that stacking the archangels staff made me weak early to mid game. I'm going to stick with MP stuff. As I said before, I like how you go all in AP though :)

A Banshee's Veil, Quicksilver Sash and/or Guardian Angel is seriously going to cut your burst. Not only do you have a complete lack of mPen in your items, but Veigar doesn't do a whole lot while you're on cooldown. Most of the time you'll kill one target at most with your burst, then you'll be vulnerable until your stun comes back up. Building completely glass cannon simply isn't viable at any decent level of play.

And with DFG, blue buff and Equilibrium, you shouldn't be having any mana problems. Lose the Clarity. It's even more unnecessary considering you're getting like 100 mp5 from those AA staffs.

There really is no use in correcting people's build in mobafire because unranked players are obsessed with their glass cannon build. Sure, try to keep your distance all you want, but when poppy or other tanky dps comes for you, you will die in a second.

I'm sorry, should I stack Rabadons?

And concerning Team fights - I would get "blown up", EXCEPT (as I stress REPEATEDLY) I keep my distance.

clarity and no survivability items, you are going to be blown up in teamfights.

Now this might work for you right now, but as you progress higher in ELO. you will realize that you need at least one or two survability items, that void staff is a must, and you don't stack archangels, much less build one.

i have yet to see anyone get their MR up to where it mattered and to do so you lose other stats(health armor) leaving the AD on your team with free rang.

Thank you for the input, really appreciate it.

(A) I do watch other peoples builds, but often others don't build MR and those that do are tanks and I make sure to focus the DPS first in fights. I have thought about a void staff - but the reason I don't is two fold - one, the higher your overall AP, the more damage DFG will do (yes it gets negated more for those with magic resist0); and two because the third Archangels gives a boost of roughly 225 AP. Do keep in mind every game should be evaluated as you play and it is good to modify accordingly.

(B) DFG has a higher focus for me, because it often allows me to kill their middle laner in one go. Also Veigar stacks a tear pretty quickly.

(C) The AP benefit between buying a Rabadon's and an Archangels first is negotiable, particularly when factoring cost. I grab the Archangels first for the boosted mana regen, as it allows me to AP farm often and without regard for mana.

(D) Thank you for the tip on the attractive part - I just got on this website last night for the first time ever due to some coaxing from friends that I should make a Veigar guide as they didn't see any suggesting my play style. I will be trying to improve this to a much higher quality.

Again, thank you VERY much for the input. I really appreciate any feedback or questions that people have.

Alright, the guide has right concept, but here are a couple things to keep in mind: (A) If people notice you stacking archangel's staffs they will buy MR, and since you have no magic penetration your damage will be reduced quite a bit. This being said think about getting a void staff. (B) If you are going to build a tear I would build it before Deathfire's Grasp to get it stacked up earlier. (C) Buy Rabadon's Deathcap before your first archangels you will probably only have 300-400 bonus mana if you buy archangels first. (D) The guide isn't very attractive jhoi jhoi has a guide that teaches you how to BB Code ultimately making your guide more attractive. You are headed in the right direction consider my advice and you'll be well off. Have a good day. If you have any questions feel free to PM me.
