Ceru's Season 14.10 Mid Veigar Guide

By Ceru
Introduction
Hello everyone! My name is Ceru and I am a Veigar main with over 200k mastery points to date and would love to share some of my self taught knowledge about my favorite champion with you all.

Veigar is a fun champion to try in the mid lane with several versatile builds and runes to experiment with! My favorite build right now is the Electrocute Build using the Luden's Companion core.

If you enjoy AP midlaners as much as I do or scaling champions that rely on ability stacks, I highly suggest you continue reading and consider adding this tiny master of evil to your competitive roster! With the strongest scaling in the game, Veigar is an oh-so-adorable yordle who can be quite ferocious in the hands of the right midlaner.. who knows maybe that might even be you!
Why Veigar?
+Powerful scaling
+Teamfight carry
+Versatile Stun
+Low ban & pick rate
+Good waveclear
Veigar is one of the strongest AP midlaners if you play your cards right. He has the ability to gain immense amounts of AP from his stacks and scales very hard into the mid/late game. With Veigar's unstoppable power you can carry your team in any teamfight even if the enemy starts building magic resistence. He's also beginner friendly!
-Weak early game
-Lot of strong counters
-Requires farming stacks
-Squishy in teamfights
-Only one escape ability
Despite Veigar's ability to one shot an entire team with enough stacks in the late game, it can be incredibly difficult to reach that point during the laning phase. As a champ that relies on stacks to gain ability power before team fighting, it can be easy for oppressive assassins like Zed or Fizz to out cs Veigar and force him under tower for the duration of the laning phase.

Gameplay

Early Game

Play passive
Farm Stacks with Baleful Strike
Don't engage extended trades before Lost Chapter
Setup ganks with Event Horizon
Deny CS when possible & shove wave if enemy roams
Keep track of enemy Jungler
As a mid laner Veigar has a weak early game with very little kill pressure during the laning phase. It's important not to engage in too many trades with the enemy laner until you can establish a sustainable amount of mana after purchasing Lost Chapter on your first back. Managing not to burn too much mana during the laning phase is cruical as Veigar because he relys on being able to farm stacks from minions with his Baleful Strike. The chances of you securing a kill anyways pre level 6 is slim to none anyways so taking extended trades are probably not going to be worth it for you regardless. I highly recommend trying to focus on your CS if you want to improve your early game as Veigar and once you've gotten comfortable with farming stacks, you can poke the enemy mid laner with your Q until your jungler can secure a gank for your lane.

With enough patience and hopefully a decent amount of stacks as well, it should be smooth sailing for you into the mid game as team fights and objectives start to open up.
As you begin to transition into the mid game, you'll start to focus more on taking objectives and roaming to other lanes to snowball the game faster when you get ahead. It's important as the mid lane to maintain map control over objectives or ganks; and even counter gank when possible to prevent the enemy jungler from sneaking cheeky kills on your sidelane. Sometimes when I'm really ahead as Veigar I like to think of myself like a second jungler, acting as the win condition for my team's other lanes and making sure I take every opportunity to put myself more ahead than I already am. It's also important to remember farming stacks even in the mid-to-late game so don't forget to clear or shove waves as they come crashing into your tower. It's easy to forget about your own lane when you're too busy trying to roam everywhere else on the map. Make smart plays.

Mid Game

Use your Teleport to roam side lanes
Help your team take objectives
Setup kills for your carries with Event Horizon
Maintain map control for objectives/ganks/invades,etc.
Play aggressive if fed and carry your leads into other lanes
Don't be afraid to take towers when enemies are distracted, Veigar can do a lot of damage to turrets
Conclusion
Thank you so much for reading my Season 14 midlane Veigar guide! I hope you have found this helpful in your jounery to dominating midlane with my favorite yordle champion. Happy climbing!
