I'll tell you what I like/dislike about this champion.

Time to take a look at Ziggs skills!
PASSIVE: SHORT FUSE
Q: BOUNCING BOMB
| Ziggs throws a bouncing bomb that deals 95 / 145 / 195 / 245 / 295 (+65% of ability power) magic damage. |
Tricks
- Throw Q in front of the enemy, so there are more chances to hit.
W: SATCHEL CHARGE
Tricks
- It flies over the wall, no matter how wide it is.
- Gives an overview in the bushes.
- During the flight, you can use other skills.
- You can push enemies into your skills.
- W can throw you over the wall.
E: HEXPLOSIVE MINEFIELD
Tricks
- Do not throw E into the wall, the mines disappear!
- Use Q after hitting E, it's easier to hit a slow-motion target.
- Enemies with clones like
Neeko can clear your mines.
R: MEGA INFERNO BOMB
Tricks
- Gives an overview in the bushes.
- Help other lanes with R
- Sometimes it's worth leaving the ult to throw it at an immobilized target.
To begin with, you must DEFINITELY choose a skin Pool Party Ziggs because his skills are the worst visible and it will be easier for you to land them.
You want to know where the enemy jungler is starting, same goes for your jungler.
Every good Jungler is going to be on the river at around 3:20 mins into the game, which is the spawn time of the Scuttlers. Gank is going to have a place before or after this timer. The optimal ward time is around 2:50.
Before that time you should ward the side he is pathing towards. Trying to get priority for the river around 3:20 timer for your jungler sounds great, but don’t force it if you can’t.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Red outline - when you are for the red team.
I always use only this arrangement of wards, because it is universal and effective.
Explanation: she reveals ALL positions of the jungler's gank from this side, shows the river, and few people notice such a
control ward.I could write it myself, but this video explains everything very well)
Roaming in its simplest form is where you rotate or move from one lane to another.
On
But sometimes you can still go roaming. When you have pushed the lane and a passive enemy is standing against you, against whom it is dangerous to stand under the tower (like
At the beginning of the game we go to get stacks of
In the mid game, keep farming and pushing. If your team is coping at the facilities without you, destroy the towers and distract attention to yourself. If the team needs you, help them pick up objects and deal damage!
If you somehow end up on the losing team, don't lose focus because
Late game is the time when each decision might cost us the game, death timers are long and objectives are the most important. One lost fight and opponents can finish the game. You have to group with the team and poke the enemies BEFORE team fight. Beware of enemy assassins and initiators, keep an eye on them and do not be substituted, remember, the longer you live - the more damage you do!
Also remember that Ziggs in Late is the best splitpusher, your team can provoke enemies on team fight, and at this time you can finish the game on the sidelane. 3 passive-enhanced auto attacks are enough to demolish the Nexus!
Of course you can use the ult to finish off fleeing enemies with a small hp but my point is to try to use your ultimate as effectively as possible!

- Play for improvement, not for LP
Stop thinking about LP. Firstly, you worry, afraid of losing them and start making mistakes or playing too passively. Secondly, if you play well, LP will come to you. - NEVER blame anyone else but yourself for losing games
Yes, there are always losing games because of the team, but you can't control your allies. You ALWAYS make mistakes, find and fix them, and there will be fewer losing games. - Disable Chat
If you are not in high elo, then chat is a useless thing. You will be distracted by him, maybe spend time on correspondence, annoying the team even more. All this leads you to defeat, so don't do it! - Know when to stop
Tilted? Mad? Tired? Stop playing. It is better to play 3 games with a good mood and win them than to lose 5 games with a bad mood.
Focus on yourself, and only yourself.
