Zilean vs Ziggs

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Use (Q) bombs to zone Ziggs and control wave pressure around mid lane minions.
Leverage (E) speed boosts to dodge poke and set up double bomb stuns on slowed targets.
Hold (R) to counter Ziggs's burst or turret dive attempts, forcing him to hesitate on all-ins.

Trading pattern

Set double bombs on minion waves or slowed Ziggs to maximize stun potential.
Use (E) speed to control trade distance, stepping in only when (W) is on cooldown.
Punish Ziggs when he mispositions near your bomb zones or after he wastes (W) disengage.

Danger windows

Respect (Q) poke range; stepping inside without speed or bombs risks heavy damage.
Avoid engaging when (W) is up, as he can knock you away or execute turret dives.
Be cautious post-level 6 when (R) can punish overextensions or low-health targets.

Early game

Prioritize hitting level 2 quickly to unlock (Q)+(E) combo for stronger trades with ADC.
Avoid extended trades before level 3 when double bomb setup and (W) improve your threat.
Use wave states to create bomb zones that force Ziggs to last-hit under pressure.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (Q)+(E) combo, enabling stronger poke and zone control; trade with ADC follow-up.
Level 3 completes kit with (W), increasing double bomb threat and trade windows.
Level 6 (R) forces Ziggs to hold burst, enabling safer all-ins or peeling for ADC.

Win conditions

Control mid wave with bomb zones and speed boosts to deny Ziggs safe poke angles.
Use (R) to negate Ziggs's burst or turret executes, enabling your ADC to trade aggressively.
Coordinate with ADC to capitalize on double bomb stuns and speed windows for kills or roams.

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