How to beat Veigar

Common role: Mid

A scaling burst mage who cages you in a stun box and one-shots with infinite AP.

What makes Veigar dangerous

Veigar stacks AP permanently with his passive, so he scales infinitely. He zones and locks you with his E (Event Horizon), a cage that stuns anyone crossing its edge, then combos a point-and-click ultimate that executes based on your missing health. Late game he deletes any squishy the instant he lands his stun.

How to play against Veigar

• 1Never walk through the edge of his E cage — the border stuns, the inside doesn't. Stand still inside it or flash out rather than crossing the wall.
• 2His combo needs the stun. Dodge or don't get caught by his E and his whole one-shot falls apart.
• 3He's immobile with no escape. Assassins and dive punish him hard once his cage is on cooldown.
• 4Deny his passive stacks early — poke and deny his farm/kills so his infinite scaling starts from behind.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓No mobility and no escape — easy to dive.
• ✓His burst requires landing the E stun first.
• ✓Weak, farm-focused early game.
• ✓MR and magic shields blunt his one-shot.

Abilities & how to counter them

What each of Veigar's abilities does — and how to play around it.

• P
  Niezwykle Nikczemna Moc

  Veigar jest największym złem, jakie kiedykolwiek uderzyło w serce Runeterry — i staje się coraz potężniejszy! Trafienie wrogiego bohatera zaklęciem lub wzięcie udziału w zabójstwie trwale zwiększa moc umiejętności Veigara.

• Q
  Złowrogie Uderzenie

  Veigar strzela pociskiem mrocznej energii, który zadaje obrażenia magiczne pierwszym dwóm trafionym celom. Veigar na stałe zyskuje trochę mocy umiejętności, gdy zabije w ten sposób jednostkę.

• W
  Ciemna Materia

  Veigar przywołuje z niebios wielką masę ciemnej materii, która w momencie lądowania zadaje obrażenia magiczne w wybranym miejscu. Ładunki Niezwykle Nikczemnej Mocy skracają czas odnowienia Ciemnej Materii.

• E
  Horyzont Zdarzeń

  Veigar zagina krawędzie przestrzeni, tworząc klatkę, która ogłusza wrogów, gdy spróbują przez nią przejść.

  Strong: a cage that stuns anyone crossing its edge — the setup for his one-shot. Weak: the border stuns, not the inside — stand still within it or flash out, don't walk through the wall.

• R
  Przedwieczny Wybuch

  Poraża wybranego wrogiego bohatera, zadając dużą ilość obrażeń magicznych, które są tym większe, im więcej zdrowia brakuje celowi.

  Strong: a point-and-click execute that scales with your missing health. Weak: without his E stun first the combo whiffs — dodge the cage and he can't kill you.

Itemization

Veigar is AP burst with true-damage execute scaling on his ult. Magic resist (Mercury's Treads, Kaenic Rookern) and a Banshee's Veil to block his E setup are key. Dodging his cage matters more than any item — no stun, no kill.
