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
  超凡邪力

  维迦是最强大的恶魔，甚至能对符文之地之心发起攻击——并且他只会越来越强大！用技能攻击一名敌人、击杀单位或拆毁防御塔都会为维迦永久提升法术强度加成。

• Q
  黑暗祭祀

  维迦释放一束黑暗能量，对最先被命中的两个敌人造成魔法伤害。被这个能量束所击杀的单位，会永久地为维迦提供一些法术强度。

• W
  黑暗物质

  维迦召唤一大团黑暗物质轰击目标区域，落地造成魔法伤害。【超凡邪力】的层数会缩短这个技能的冷却时间。

• E
  扭曲空间

  维迦扭曲空间的边缘，创造一个牢笼来使途径的敌人晕眩。

  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
  能量爆裂

  引爆目标敌方英雄，造成大量魔法伤害，并基于目标已损失生命值提升伤害。

  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.
