Yordles tend to be good at blowing stuff up, right? So why can't the Tiny Master of Evil blow up turrets with that huge meteor of his?
Bottom line: Cast Dark Matter directly on a turret to sacrifice its AOE damage, but deal heavy damage to the turret ala Azir.
New form of power?
Shadow Gilgamesh3 votesBecause Veigar doesn't need siege/split pushing power.
It doesn't fit his gameplay style of farming for stacks early, and would be unnecessary power given his identity of single target deletion late game

I don't think they want his identity to be single target destruction since 3 of his moves are More then single target
darkdill1 votesExactly. He's meant for general purpose destruction, so why not add turrets to the mix?
sp4411 votesBecause he's not a split pusher and he's not a siege champion, he's a single-target snowball champion. It'd be like giving Ezreal Brand's W.

too easy to sneak a w on a turret with that range. throw down the e to zone your opponent, go in for a w on the turret and retreat. there is nothing his opponent could do against it. he could take turrets so easily it would make him op.
might have worked with his old q with its short range, but not anymore.
Ranger Azereth1 votesI would say it may work if you increased the cooldown for using it in such a way. Similar to how teleport has decreased cool down when used on a turret
darkdill1 votesOr if it dealt a different damage amount than when you normally use it.
Marthian1 votesHe is good at blowing up stuff. He blows up champions.
Also, he's already pretty good at destroying turrets anyways. (You deal damage to a turret equal to your base attack damage plus either bonus AD or 40% of AP, whichever is higher. Late game veigar frequently has 1100+ AP.) Heck, in some cases, he beats Nasus for turret destruction.
