He took 5 towers in less than 5 minutes and single handily won the game.Why is a champion with already amazing zoning,siege and wave clear allowed to execute towers.His passive + lichbane already shreds them so why was this buff needed? Is it because since every mage got changed you guys couldn't think of ideas to help Ziggs?Who was doing crack at Riot headquarters?

What I find odd is that league is a game based on defending turrets and just recently they added this direct interaction with said element, in the past, heimerdinger was able to siege turrets with his bomb, it was hell obviously because he would just walk up to the turret and hit it with his skill until it fell down but it was definitely an interesting interaction with turrets.

On ziggs himself well, this is his niche, it has always been, the fact that he's recognized by it now means that Riot did a good work there, maybe a bit too much but overall it's a nice direction, specially since his kit can be pretty unreliable at times, having a new pattern to fall back onto is pretty cool.

Notice that this only works exceptionally well if his team is already ahead.

Lol. Its not op. If your tower is that low it isn't lasting much longer anyways.

And it doesn't really change the fact that there are far better picks then ziggs.

A game where your team was losing bad and theirs was pushing towers means nothing.

Ziggs might'a finished them, but clearly his team was helping him take turrents. Since ziggs ain't great at waveclear and any att empt to kill him has a high chance of success.

This is another "reason I lost" thread.

Wards and map awareness help a lot. Having vision of Ziggs and where he is can let you block his access to your towers pretty easily.
