[Opinion] How I feel Support Veigar should be played

I like having him as a tank while adding to his passive via and champion pokes. Assists are just as good for Veigar as kills so I don't care who gets the kill, as long as I get that +5. I find having this type of build makes him more versatile in the support role, allowing him to make stuns/plays he normally wouldn't be able to do as a glass cannon. Granted this severely limits his burst damage output, this is made up for prolonged team fights, tanking, and the ability to set up risky plays and survive. Full build will be . Average late game AP is between 400~600 with this build.

Time stamps on in the video. Let me know what you think.

To be honest, I've never had a support Veigar that made me think:

"This is fine, this is fine, this is okay. This is fine."

i had 1 game of support veigar where i did really well, i built sighstone -> AP and i was a stun bot for the lee sin on my team, our ADC didn't do anything at all.

But that's what I'm talking about. Every game with a support Veigar in it that I've been in is normally just a game of the ADC struggling to get kills or farm because Veigar is taking them.

its exactly the same as brand/annie support, you either take everything and pub stomp the lane until your ADC or yourself get too far ahead (and the enemy has dirt for farm/exp) and youre just innately ahead the rest of the game too big to come back from.

I can show you. Veigar support isnt my thing, but I main veigar, and am confident I can support properly. Ive duo queued and done it fine. You just need to get in sync.

Actually dont make zzrots. If support makes zzrots it starves carries and tanks cs. Its actually quite bad. Do not underestimate how much cs that thing gets.

If you watched the video, you'll notice item 3512 was only used 3 times during turret downs.

Oh, sorry mate. Good to hear youre doing it proper. Some supports actually tip the game off doing it you know...
