Viktor vs Veigar

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Viktor is a scaling control mage who must pressure Veigar early to deny his safe Q stacking and prevent calm scaling.
Use medium lane pressure to keep Veigar uncomfortable and avoid giving him passive farming windows.

Trading pattern

Trade short with E poke and Q shield while keeping W ready to disengage from Veigar E cage.
Punish Veigar when Veigar E is on cooldown by stepping forward for trades.
Avoid committing to trades if Veigar's cage is available as it can trap you for Veigar R burst.

Danger windows

Veigar is most dangerous when Veigar E is up, threatening stun and burst.
Viktor is vulnerable if W is poorly placed or on cooldown, allowing Veigar to punish immobility.
Avoid extended trades when Veigar R is available and you lack W for disengage.

Early game

Focus on farming with E and shielding with Q to survive Veigar's poke while maintaining wave control near your side.
Avoid bad W placement to prevent Veigar from punishing your immobility.
Use W to zone and disengage if Veigar tries to engage with Veigar E stun.

Power spikes

Viktor's major spikes are level 6 R and first completed mage item with ability evolutions.
Veigar's major spike is level 6 Veigar R with burst execute and Veigar E cage.
Minor spike at level 3 improves Viktor's poke and zone control but is less impactful than level 6.

Win conditions

Deny Veigar safe Q stacking by applying wave pressure and punishing cage cooldowns.
Scale into mid-late game with evolved abilities and item upgrades to control teamfights and zone Veigar.
Use W smartly to disengage Veigar's all-in attempts and maintain lane control until power spikes.

Tip: For Viktor vs Veigar, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
