Vel'Koz vs Veigar

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Use long-range (Q) poke angles to pressure Veigar and deny his ADC access early.
Control side brush to limit Veigar's cage (E) engage angles and protect your ADC.
Prioritize river vision to track Veigar's roam timer and secure dragon setup.

Trading pattern

Use split (Q) angles to poke without minion interference, layering (W) for burst.
Hold (E) for peel or guaranteed knockup to protect ADC from Veigar's cage (E).
Engage only when your ADC can immediately follow up and (E) is on cooldown.

Danger windows

Veigar's cage (E) creates all-in threat; avoid standing near brush without vision.
Veigar's level 6 ultimate (R) can execute slowed or knocked-up targets; respect his burst window.
Enemy ADC follow-up after (E) stun increases your ADC's vulnerability; hold peel accordingly.

Early game

Win level 2 poke with (Q)+(E) knockup, enabling your ADC to safely contest wave.
Deny Veigar brush control to prevent him from landing cage (E) and setting up burst.
Crash wave with your ADC before roaming to keep Veigar's ADC vulnerable and punish his immobility.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks your knockup (E) and poke (Q), enabling stronger trades and ADC safety.
Level 3 completes your poke pattern; use it around brush control and enemy cooldowns.
Level 6 ultimate (R) allows burst finishers; use with confirmed ADC follow-up or defensive resets.

Win conditions

Convert poke damage into ADC access denial to force Veigar and his ADC off the wave.
Maintain brush and river vision control to deny Veigar's engage angles and roam opportunities.
Use wave crashes and poke windows to set up dragon fights and force Veigar into defensive postures.
