Veigar Proposed Fixes

The changes to veigar have turned him into a incredibly passive midlaner very similar to nasus but without a reliable way to land your damaging abilities late game. Q: With his Q being a skillshot that only hits two targets, it nearly completely removes his ability to poke in lane. A possible fix is to simply change it to how it originally was or allow it to hit more then two enemies so the minion wall can't always completely protect the opposing laner. W: Veigars W remains impossible to land without some hard cc on the target. This can be fixed by improvements to his E which I'll mention soon, or possibly faster fall time. Because of the high damage on the W, it isn't supposed to be a reliable harass tool to begin. However, with the change to his E and Q he has no reliable harass at all. Riot could also possible just buff the W when its cast within Veigars E so when a target is trapped (because let's be honest, you'll never stun with that thing as it is) by increasing its aoe or fall time within the E. E: As for his E, I agree having it cast instantly was kind of stupid but Veigars kit was entirely based on that. A possible fix is to have the end of the Horizon closest to Veigar appear instantly to punish over aggresive players while it takes the .5 or .75 seconds to completly close around to the far side. This would allow a reliable way to peel for yourself without a ridiculous long range stun, . If not that the only thing I can personally thing of to make it fair is to reduce the range or radius of the E while reducing the cast time so it isn't completely unreliable to land. I personally just think that given Veigars poor mobility and having no reliable harass he should be able to use the stun to protect himself and punish over aggressiveness from the other laner, and the way it is now you only can use it like that in certain situations.

These are all changes that I think would make sense, not necessarily all applied at once but maybe just one or two. I think these could make Veigar usable again without "having no counter play".
