Veigar see's competitve play as a mid laner-
For the first time in.....Fuck I can't even remember (not counting support Veigar)
And people lose their collective shit because he's blowing up squishy champs extremely fast? Shit, it's like it's his identity or something.
Yet
Can nom your front line like they have 0 items and still 2 shot your squishies. I'm not seeing the consistency here.
Veigar pros and cons.
Pros -Super high burst. -Can farm for his ap -Reliable ultimate (I.E targeted) Burst. -Team fight potential is huge because of baby cage. -Can easily build tear because of his farm mechanic. -E is a great zoning tool. -His pure presence causes anxiety in mid laners (good, you should tremble in his presence)
Cons. -0 mobility -Will mana starve in lane farming. -Choreographs his intentions blatantly -QSS Or Banshees makes him cry. -Assassins have a field day with him. -Ult is single target (He's a burst and gtfo champion) -His stun is his only disengage. -Feast or Famine champion (this is not healthy for any champ period) -3 out of 4 skills are skillshots that can all be easily dodged. -His ult has a huge SFX that lets you know when to activate Zhonyas. -His Stun is not reliable. You literally have to face tank the damn thing in order to get nailed by it.
IMO <---- Note , that says my opinion. Veigar does need a shift in power. His W QoL buff is what we all wanted, it's what we all asked for. Yet we got non stop buff on his Q which made him above average after the QoL buff on his W and assist AP gain.
Veigar at his core is fine. Honestly just revert the Q buffs that he was given and remove the AP per assist and you're golden.
