Hey Riot, Where is Ziggs at right now?

Lil Ghost··2 votes·927 views

So I've been thinking about purchasing ziggs but I want to know I where he's at first. Is he weak, strong, balanced? I really wouldn't know because I don't own him so I'm hoping the Rito experts can help me out xD.

His a strong and pretty safe midlaner. Also angood ultimate for dragon steals.

Clairvoyance is an option with your long range multi. Think enemy jungle is low at blue? USE THIS IF HE IS TTHEREUSE MULTIAND STEAL IT

if you wanted to not waste a summoner spell, you could get the blue trinket, but using Clarity tends to be a very bad idea because of its limited uses, lack of damage and lack of survival strategies

I do what I do... I tend to not take flash when Im with friends I prefer leaving it. makes me feel special..

Clairvoyance is global and can be used every 60 seconds.. so it's good for someone with a global ult. (Trinket has a range of a ziggs ult and higher cooldown. and reveals less)

Ashe doesn't need either.. because her e.

But it's good with Ezreal get some CDR and you can have the Clairvoyance and ult at the same time.


So in other words.. You're right.. Blue trinket would be better for a ziggs. get CDR on ziggs and his cool down on his ult might be the same as the trinket.

he is shit right now. to many mid laners crush him might be good in draft but only if you pick into someone else who isn't someone likeAhri Akali Annie Azir Ekko Diana Fizz Kayle Kennen Leblanc Lissandra Lulu Lux Malzahar Orianna Morgana and a handlful of others. basically anyone who can delete him,hold him still,or has a good shield.

Ziggs shit on Lulu and he's a better option against Annie than a lot of other champions.

no he doesn't and the best choice against annie will still get shit on.

may have wave clear but he gets his in three abilities around the time annie gets hers from one and while you may think she needs 400 ap to one shot i can tell you from experience with and against the champion that,that particular comment is a load of shit. even if not annie has a point and click spell and an instant cast cone both of which can be used without losing mana for a full combo that will drop him far below 75% and you can try to be one of the general "he out ranges her so he can kill her" morons or you can realize she gets the single best form of cc on all of her abilities when ever she wants.

yes ziggs out ranges those champions but neither are what he actually has to out range and both do enough damage to kill him on one go where are zigg's kill combo requires quiet a bit of prep and timing(as in when to try so they don't just get out free) neither orianna nor azir do and both will easily drop him should they get the chance.

ziggs can siege better but since malzahar is cancer in lane who shuts down nearly everyone who isn't unlucky enough to have a jungler who doesn't know how to play his siege doesn't mean anything when he is useless and ziggs doesn't have better team fight then malzahar since malzahar will just remove the fed champion from the fight until either his target dies or they burn CC on him. ziggs however will die the moment a real fight starts.

It doesn't matter who they destroy the fact assassins make him useless is a big factor why he is crap since the champion himself is great but the meta is horrible for him.

Ahri is not overpowered... have not seen an ahri who doesn't feed except me on occasion and like 4 other people those matchs are like 1/100

morgana has to hit a Q yeah but since its on like a 6 second cooldown you have to dodge them damn near rapid fire and all it takes is one to kill someone and win a fight.

Lissandra is still in a better spot then Ziggs

He is bit on the strong side, his main problem is mana, but if your not deleted within ur first 2 backs (2-3+ ganks), you will dominate late game!

He's good until the enemy team gets baron.

His role is to be THE wave clear mage but viktor does it better same thing with xerath hes ment to be THE poke mage but viktor does it better.

He's still good, but the Q nerf back then still really hurt him because sometimes you'll see your bomb just bounce over minions/champ when it should've exploded.

Other than that once you get morello and luden you'll be chunking the enemy pretty hard. Any later in the game and the Q is pre-nerf Nid's spear in AoE form.

Edit: Baron buff fuck him over pretty hard.
