The new Q isnt too horrible. makes farming it a little bit easier cause you can stack it twice as fast. But his new Stun makes him basically useless. Cant stun people on tower hardly because youll die before it even casts. If you can actually make it to late game without feeding 10 kills in lane because you have no escapes and no way to stop them then he might be viable. But you would have to be going against bots to make it that far. Bring back his old stun and the other changes could stay the same and hed be sufficient enough

Do you guys ever think of giving it just a teensy, weensy bit of time to learn how to play Veigar the new way before declaring you can no longer play him the old way and thus he's useless?

It was actually fairly difficult to stun a GOOD player, with the old veigar. They just keep moving around too much. Now I'd imagine it's almost impossible.

You mean that veigar can't dive people at level 3 anymore, so now he is like every other champion? Oh sucks.

It *is *really hard to hit with the new changes. Especially because anybody with a dash is instantly immune to it... But it's not meant to be an insta-stun anymore. It's a zoning ability and needs to be treated thusly. It does take a tremendous amount of relearning now, because it really hurts your combo against assassins (which means it hurts against the current meta). But now that Q is a skillshot, you should be able to kite away. You almost have to play him like Anivia or Lux.

Fun fact; you don't have to stand still when someone is tower-diving you.
