Vayne vs Veigar

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 7, 2026

Overview

Vayne wins extended trades by kiting Veigar and punishing his immobility near walls.
Veigar controls lane priority early with (E) cage, so Vayne must deny free stacks by last-hit punishing.
The lane turns on Vayne's ability to avoid (E) and punish Veigar's forced CS approach under pressure.

Trading pattern

Hit Veigar during last-hit animations when he walks up, using (Q) to reposition safely.
Hold (E) to (E) Veigar into walls if he overextends or tries to engage with (E).
Drop punish windows if enemy support controls brush or can trade back instantly after your step forward.

Danger windows

(E) cage sets up lethal burst and stun; avoid stepping into its range without vision.
Veigar's level 6 (R) burst is deadly if caught in (E); respect this window by holding defensive tools.
Enemy support control of brush or engage cooldowns increases danger when you try to punish Veigar's CS.

Early game

Use the first three waves to hold a wave near your side, denying Veigar safe (Q) stack farming.
Punish Veigar's last hits when he steps forward, but only if enemy support can't immediately counter.
Avoid pushing without vision to prevent Veigar's support from enabling cage engages or burst trades.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) grants stealth on (Q), enabling Vayne to outplay Veigar's cage and burst with repositioning.
First marksman item spike improves Vayne's damage and lane pressure, making last-hit punishments safer.
Two-item side-lane spike empowers Vayne's true damage, allowing her to duel Veigar if isolated.

Win conditions

Convert last-hit punishments into health leads to crash waves and pressure plates.
Use lane priority from denied Veigar stacks to help secure dragon vision and objective control.
Scale into side-lane duels post two-item spike, using (E) to lock Veigar near walls and maximize DPS.
