Champion Tips
Riot officialPlaying as
- Use Event Horizon to increase your chances of landing Dark Matter.
- Veigar is extremely mana-hungry early. Try buying mana regen items to increase the effectiveness of your passive and allow you to cast more Baleful Strikes.
- Veigar is very fragile. It is valuable to select at least one summoner spell that can be used defensively.
Playing against
- Dark Matter deals very high damage, but it can be avoided. Pay attention to the sound and visual indicator to be aware of when and where the spell will land.
- Event Horizon only stuns units on the edge. If you're inside the spell, you can still move and attack.
- Veigar's ultimate deals damage based on your AP as well as his own.
