Veigar Bot Lane APC Guide - Complete Champion Strategy
Early game, focus on safely farming and stacking your passive with Q. Use your cage (E) defensively to prevent engages. Last hit with Q whenever possible to maximize AP stacks.
Mid game revolves around coordinating with your support to land cage stuns and burst combos (E > W > Q). Save ultimate for low health targets to maximize execution damage. Focus on clearing waves and securing objectives.
In the late game, Veigar becomes a terrifying presence. Position safely behind your team and look to trap priority targets in your cage. A single combo can eliminate carries. Use your zoning potential to control objectives.
