Veigar Change Is Good

Rieiid·2/15/2015, 4:27:59 AM·4 votes·900 views

Am I the only one that thinks so? I've played against a few veigars lately, and to be honest after thinking, that stun needed a huge nerf. For once I'm starting to think riot knows what they are doing.

I mean at least think about it before you go blowing up, just because Zed or LeeSin weren't nerfed much again yet. Veigar can put out pretty good damage output if you don't have much/any mresist. So a stun is a touchy subject in itself.

A lot of people think Ahri is overpowered, especially if you can land her charms, but see how hard ahris charm is to pull off? Veigar has a HUGE area that automatically stuns groups of people in it. That just makes it easy for veigars team, (Stun group, shoot other skills, team bomb rushes you while you're all stunned, gg). For that huge of a radius, an instant stun is really OP, if you can really disagree and not admit that it's at least slightly OP then you must just love abusing veigar and are item 3070 item 3070 about it, or just want another excuse to yell at riot.

tl;dr - veigar change is good, incoming downvotes (grabs helmet)

only edges of E stuns and there is huge hole in the middle that does absolutely nothing, in laning phase most people miss insta stunning you and enemy will walk into edge themselves or it misses (assuming you keep your distance and know what you are doing) He's a champion that needs to be respected, but landing that instastun and meteor IS HARDer than you think or else everyone would be playing him and his winratio would show it too. Play him yourself then speak again. And lee is crap when jungling im happy to see him in opposite team cause i know i will win, and i do

I think where the problem lies is that Veigar players would prefer a skillshot like Charm compared to what they're going to get.

I'm fine with everything but the E. I don't think anyone in their right mind thought the E was healthy, but the nerf was way too hard.

I do admit Veigar was kind of unbalanced, but this PBE nerf isn't in any way, "good" for Veigar players. The E nerf was just too much, now Veigar can barely do anything by himself. Without landing a stun, his nuke DOES NOT work. So he's useless without other CC. Thankfully, it's just a PBE update. ;_;

i want to start with the fact that Veigar, is and always has been my absolute favorite champion, I used to main him before these severe nerfs. I refuse to play him at all now. I've also noticed that the ONLY people that think the change is good are the people that don't play veigar. His stun actually took a lot more skill than people appreciate, and it genuinely upsets me that they completely destroyed an already hard to play champ that was already easily countered

You are Level 27 now (after 2 month)... you shouldnt even have a right to write in this forum... you must have a huge experience with Veigar (like 2 games) but dont write something like that down and expect people to believe something like that... first get better at the game (like 400 wins at least) before you can even think of lecturing other people about champions
