Ziggs vs Sivir

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 7, 2026

Overview

Ziggs wins by punishing Sivir's short auto range with (Q) poke and controlling wave states.
Maintain a long-range lane to chip health and force Sivir to last-hit under pressure.
Avoid extended trades where (W) and (E) reduce your poke effectiveness.

Trading pattern

Step forward to punish Sivir's last-hit animations with (Q) when enemy support is out of zone.
Use (E) to zone Sivir's approach paths and prevent her from safely engaging or farming.
Avoid trading when (W) is down, as you lose your main disengage against Sivir's all-in speed.

Danger windows

Respect (E) timing; avoid committing when it can block your key poke.
Avoid stepping up when Sivir's support controls brush or can immediately follow with engage.
Be cautious when (R) is active, as her team gains movement advantage for all-ins or disengages.

Early game

Use the first three waves to thin minions with (Q) and (E), denying Sivir safe last hits.
Punish Sivir's last-hit attempts on caster minions if enemy support can't immediately trade back.
Hold wave near your side early to reduce Sivir's dash window and limit her poke angles.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to threaten all-ins or objective fights, forcing Sivir to play cautiously.
After first mage poke item, pressure Sivir more confidently with reduced (W) cooldown for turret executes.
Track (E); she is vulnerable to poke and all-ins when it is down.

Win conditions

Convert poke damage and wave control into turret plate damage using (W) executes.
Punish Sivir's CS attempts to force recalls and gain item timing advantages.
Use lane priority to set up dragon vision and teamfight positioning for your mid-range DPS role.
