Please just do a hot-fix to revert Veigar for now

If what you want is feedback, you've got it. Everyone hates the new Veigar's stun. There are aspects we like, nerfs we are ok to accept, but in a couple days NO ONE is going to be playing Veigar. I'm trying, I honestly am, but it is like playing with a built in 400 ping. If Veigar was in fact broken before in an OP manner, why wasn't he seen in competitive play? He works just fine with the current meta (minus crap mobility.) The reason: because even with that stun he had plenty of counters.

If Veigar needs changes then fine, but toss him back into PTR for your feedback so we can continue to use him as a viable champ.

The only thing that keeps Veigar, Rammus and Fiddlesticks from Competitive play is that they need to max out everything in their kit before they are powerful.

One of the main things Mages are picked for is Waveclear.

That's the #1 in competitive play, just look at the champions picked all the time.

Veigar needs to max out his W to have access to it, but W usually gets maxed last.

If he doesn't max Q, he doesn't get any Poke or AP.

If he doesn't max E, he can't land W on champions.

If he doesn't max W, he can't wave clear.

While this is not as bad with Rammus and Fiddles, because they only need 2 spells to be effective and therefor are very good in High elo SoloQ.

Things are different with Veigar, Veigar needs to be level 15 before he becomes trully strong.

Which most of the time, it's already too late in competitive play.
