Note to Riot after 1 million mastery on Veigar: He needs a buff or rework.

CEZORD··1 votes·913 views

He has been neglected and left out to dry.

  • No Veigar loading screen or major event like Odyssey or KDA.

He needs a buff or rework: longer ranger, more sustain, ever so slightly, slightly better CDR, cast timings need to be decreased, etc:

  • EVENT HORIZON needs a better delay than 0.5 seconds.
  • EVENT HORIZON should also do damage when interacted with, stepped into, or when inside of the cage.
  • EVENT HORIZON should also activate after death when called on before death.
  • DARK MATTER Reduce 1.2 seconds down to something much lower.
  • DARK MATTER needs a wider diameter because 1.2 seconds takes forever.
  • BALEFUL STRIKE needs a longer range
  • etc.

I have about 1 million mastery on Veigar and I cannot, for the life of Veigar, get into gold. I am S1 and S2 fluctuating at the moment.

P.S. HE NEEDS A BUFF EARLY GAME TO BE VIABLE, PERIOD. ENOUGH SAID. P.P.S. Leave any ideas for a Veigar rework or buff in the comment section.

Not sure if Troll, but I got Gold within a month of coming back to the game after a 4 years off.

I play Veigar, too.

1 million mastery means nothing. I've played against people with that much mastery and ... yeah.

Those changes would break him. He's an extremely high damage champion balanced around having hard to hit abilities. If he had lower delays he'd be oneshotting entire teams without much counterplay. It would be like if you gave nasus olaf's ult in addition to his ult- it would essentially remove the only way you get to play around him past a certain point. And idk about you, I don't like auto losing a game because my mid laner either isn't playing a champion who can punish or isn't good enough to punish.

Idk if I'm in the minority or what here, but I like Veigar as he is. He is effective due to his scaling and ratios, and yet is otherwise immobile and skill shot/positioning reliant.

If anything I feel Riot has done themselves a disservice by over complicating champions so much that every new thing that comes out needs multiple dashes, an execute, and some broken mechanic that makes the enemy have to play a mini game.

However, rather than just shoot you down... especially since I am a Veigar player myself (primarily Swain, Velkoz and Veigar in mid lane), I want to know what is it you are trying to accomplish with these buffs? He was never intended to have sustain and his weak early is due to his strong late game. I could kind of see the dark matter buffs for better trading at least. Increasing Q range wouldn't help you because you could maybe poke more if the enemy lines up behind a minion, but otherwise you need to be close enough to use R when trading. Also, Riot wouldn't want that because then Veigar farms super safely, and the enemy is supposed to be able to punish his farming similar to Nasus.

EVENT HORIZON needs a better delay than 0.5 seconds.

okay it's instant again. However Veigar's damage and CC duration is heavily cut back to compensate.

Yes, he needs a buff CEZORD.

Really, why do you say so Veigar?

CEZORD1 votes

Because all I play is Veigar, and am really upset of every champion whooping me from 0:00 - 40:00.

CEZORD1 votes

Yeah, I feel ya there. Once it hits minute 40:00 its gg for the enemy.

Just give him the nasus treatment

Q has 50% less CD during.. your... E?

He is "playable", but some buffs for him would be good like one of those:

  • Add something to the passive (milestones, or just X of something for Y stacks)

  • Increase range on some of his spells (especially R)

  • Move cdr per 50 stacks from W to Q

  • Change Q cd to 8/7/6/5/4 instead of 7/6.5/6/5.5/5

  • Decrease W delay a little bit

  • Remove actual W and give him some new, better spell

  • Make E deal some dmg and compensate nerf W's dmg

  • Decrease E delay a little bit

  • Make people inside of his E grounded

Or just nerf hyper mobile champions.

Any of those changes would make him unbearably OP. The last thing he needs is easier to land abilities.

Light deus1 votes

if they buff him they gotta gut his e beforehand, is there a better basic move?

Anxious Veigar1 votes

No, not that much of a buff, he needs a Q damage or range buff on it and make cage a bit more easier to land against people really close to you (assassins), like a delay reduction on the closest wall.

P.S HE NEEDS BUGFIXES ESPECIALLY THE NEW BUG WHICH MAKES HIS CAGE DELAY GO UP BY 0.25 SECONDS AAAAAAAA
