Items

Starter

First base (Try to get 1200 for lost chapter, if you cant get 950 for all the components)

Good early buys

Always first item

Boots (90% of games is just pen)

Typical full build

Situational (explanation below)

Magic pen (pretty self explanatory) void staff if ur job is to kill everything, and cryptbloom if ur more of a 2nd or 3rd carry

If you need more mana on "experimentation runepage" or if you need more cdr for money page. Good as a 3rd 4th or 5th item if you have slow front to back fights where the burn will actually make a big difference

Pretty self explanatory, banshees if enemy team is heavy ap or ur easy to catch with a cc and zhonyas if ur vs heavy ad or dive comp

Nothing too special, essentially just extra defense if enemy team split between ad and ap (if u just need the extra mana + cdr, blackfire torch is the better option)

Rabadon is the most flexible item, you can really buy it 2nd 3rd 4th or 5th, the biggest decider is how rich you are, if you can easily spare 1200 a base for large rod, you can just put ur balls on the table and build it 2nd, if ur playing for team more, its most likely more worth to get antiheal, cryptbloom and burn items to support them instead of greeding for the most awkward build path in the game.

Shadowflame is a weird item, overall its easily one of the best ziggs items but it can be rough to build it since all ur getting is burst damage on low targets. I would say you only prefer shaodwflame over other items early game if u have a lockdown comp so you can reliably hit ur full combo (buy it 2nd if u have champs like rell, leona, nautilus, bard, malzahar etc)

These are ur best bets for 2nd items, (skip horizon if ur going my experimentation runepage) its pretty self explanatory but i'll run down the basics anyways, horizon is crazy good stats for cheap money + an easy build path, liandry is better if its hard for u to stay safe (or vs high hp targets) the extra health doesnt sound like much, but an extra 300 on 2nd item makes a huge difference in making sure you survive

Champion Build Guide

Playstyle

Depends of matchups and runes ofc.

But the style i kind of invented myself, is the first strike money build.

The build heavily focuses on relying on first strike, cash back, towers, plates and farm to get you items. (dont try to ks kills)

If enemy jungler isnt a constant threat to 1-shot you, you wanna 1-shot waves and walk around the map, whether its to gank top, gank bot, W a random tower or get vision doesnt matter, try to stay in fog of war as much as possible, make the enemies scared to commit cause they dont know where you are, and make sure you can flexibly walk anywhere incase they commit.

Play with ur team as much as you can, give most of the kills to ur team (you dont need the gold anyway, since you have all the runes for it)

Another key factor that i dont see any other ziggs do, is ur W as a stun..
What do i mean by that? When the enemy is in the air from ur W, they cant move, learn the trajectories and combo ur W into a Q midair which essentially makes it undodgeable (my highlight video shows this well multiple times, so watch that if ur confused)
