Jeah mister Bronze 1 (dont play ranked if you dont want to be "ranked)
Veigar is pretty useless right now, you can easily pubstomb against weak player (everything under platinum is, from my experience weak, with a few exceptions of course, like in every elo).
So yes, its weak, you can buy items against it, play characters which made this skill completly useless
,
etc., dodge it (something you should learn)
Jeah, he isnt nearly as reliable as Viktor, doenst have Glorious Evolution or a slowfield, which is reliable.
Veigar is far to easy counterable, but he himself cant counter anybody if the enemy is able to paly decent, since the delay prevents big plays.
Veigar is also completly gone from any professional scene in lol, and not for no reason, his delay is killing him there literally.
Stop crying at bronze 1...
