Ziggs vs Zoe

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Ziggs is a long-range artillery mage who must maintain high lane pressure to deny Zoe's pick opportunities.
Prioritize waveclear and poke to prevent Zoe from finding angles for Zoe E and extended Zoe Q trades.

Trading pattern

Poke with Q and zone with E to punish Zoe if she walks through your minefield.
Respect Zoe E cooldown; after Zoe E misses, you can safely poke and push.
Avoid using W aggressively unless you can safely execute a turret or escape an engage, as missing it lowers your safety.

Danger windows

Be cautious when Zoe has Zoe E ready, as it sets up her burst combo.
Ziggs is vulnerable when W is on cooldown and Zoe can close distance.
After Zoe uses Zoe R poorly or misses Zoe E, you have a window to pressure aggressively.

Early game

Use Q and E to poke from a distance and control Zoe's approach path before level 6.
Avoid standing close enough for Zoe to land Zoe E sleep and burst with Zoe Q + Zoe R.
Conserve W to disengage Zoe's all-in or to execute turrets when safe.

Power spikes

Ziggs spikes at level 6 with R for long-range burst and objective control.
Respect Zoe's level 6 spike with Zoe R enabling extended Zoe Q burst angles.
First completed mage poke item increases Ziggs's poke threat and waveclear.

Win conditions

Use superior waveclear and poke to keep Zoe under turret and deny her safe Zoe E setups.
Punish Zoe's missed Zoe E by stepping forward with Q and E poke.
Convert lane pressure into turret damage using W execute and R for objective control.

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