Stop complaining about Veigar, he has SO much counterplay.
It's really stupid that people are complaing about Veigar. Veigar has SO much counterplay, whether it's mechanical, itemization, or even just game strategy. Let me list all of the counterplay, and there is a LOT:
-
Dodge the stun, it takes a whole 0.5 seconds to complete. You can even walk in inside it if you can't get outside, and EASILY dodge his W that takes 1.25 seconds to complete. If dodging such telegraphed abilities is difficult, then you need to practice this game more.
-
Buy Boots to help you dodge the stun better if you just can't dodge it.
-
Buy tier 2 Boots to help to dodge the stun even better.
-
Buy Merc Treads if you just CANNOT dodge the stun, because then you can literally walk away after his stun before his W finishes casting, provided the stun isn't already level 3 or so.
-
Buy Banshee's Veil. This way, you can LITERALLY walk through his stun, and you won't even get trapped inside! It also completely negates his ultimate, and the MR reduces his burst too.
-
Save your dash or mobility if you have any for dodging the stun if you really just can't avoid it.
-
Buy QSS so you can move after being hit by the stun, easily walking away from his W. You can also escape from inside this way.
-
Buy Zhonya's so that you can dodge his ultimate. Seriously. If you time it right, his ult won't do ANY damage and it still goes on cooldown. It's slow-moving too, so it's easy to time.
-
Abuse Veigar's terrible laning. Before Veigar gets mana regen items, he can EITHER: Q farm, OR poke you. He cannot do both unless you let him hit you through his minions that he is farming. If he is properly Q farming, he won't even have mana to spare to assist in jungler ganks or use any other abilities besides Q.
-
Dive Veigar after he uses his stun and then he has nothing to say about it besides dying.

look dumpster. It's even laughable how easy it is to kill Veigar with any that has a gap closer and can bait out the E, or has higher damage and can CC him into an easy kill.
when I play top. Not so OP, but still strong. I wish people would play with or against
