Champion Build Guide

Introduction

Hey, I'm Frostbite and this guide is about my !
I'm an Anivia Main but Veigar is one of my secondary Champions and I always perform well on him! He is a mid range mage with the kit to carry your team. If you get fed you can make the game hell for squishy and tanky enemies because you will be able to oneshot anyone.
In this guide I'm gonna show you how to play him to climb easily in SoloQ!

These are my stats in Season 9 on one of my dia accs in EUW

You can find me streaming at my TWITCH CHANNEL. Ask questions if you have any!

Combos / Tricks

Lane Poke

> > >

This Combo is often used as lane poke. Once you finish you can use it to slow the enemy. After that its easier to hit and which will automatically proc if you use it as keystone rune.

CLASSIC COMBO (E+W+Q)

> >

This is the classic combo you often do in lane. Start it off by trying to Cage the enemy with your E . They either get stunned or are trapped in it. Follow up with your W and Q . If the enemy gets low enough you can even follow it up with your Ultimate .

Q Flash

This can be used to surprise your enemies, since they wont have alot of time to react to that combo. You can use it to follow up with your R or when they are low enough that your Q would kill them.

Sneaky Cage

(credit - Veigar v2)

You can use it to stop enemies from escaping or ganking. Just place your E in the wall or in their way to stop them. This can be used for multiple champions such as Jarvan IV (as seen in the video) or Zac.

Playstyle

IN LANE

Your early laning phase consists mostly of farming. Try to stack your Passive as good as possible by last hitting minions with your Q or damaging the enemy mid with your spells. This works best when you either last hit 2 minions with 1 Q or lasthit one minion and hitting the enemy mid with the 2nd Q hit.
Your W helps you clear waves easily and setup the minions to lasthit with your Q .
Once you have you wont have that much mana problems anymore. You can try and start poking the enemy laner with your Combo or simple Q hits.

MID GAME

Waveclear and keep stacking your Passive. Often enough you can go sidelane and just farm up there.
Dont be afk top or botlane tho! Try to move for important objectives and help your team. Youre a major carry in most teamfights since you can oneshot any enemy with your Q > W > R combo.
In teamfights you should try to stay in the backline and only move up when a major target is CC'ed so you can oneshot them. You can use your E to split the enemy team, as disengage tool or as a catching tool.

LATE GAME

Once you start reaching full build you should be super strong. If you have and a certain amount of stacks on your Passive you should have about 1000AP, which makes teamfighting alot easier for you.
Still try to stay save in teamfights, but dont be too shy to just Cage and oneshot anyone from the enemy team.
Your Q > R damage should be enough at this point to oneshot enemy carries, so you can even try to go for a Q > Flash > R Combo.
Taking major objectives such as Baron or Elder Drake should also be easy. Your DPS is really big on them, since your Q and W only have about 2sec CD at this point and your Cage can be used as zoning tool.

IN GENERAL

Play safe early game/ward river!
Stack up your Passive!
Abuse your insane scaling!
Stay in the backline while teamfighting!
Try to catch squishies!
Use your Cage wisely!
