If this is the model, then Sandbag Veigar needs a special interaction with Little Slugger Trundle.

Don't forget we need to rename "Final Boss Veigar" to "Tutorial Boss Veigar"

And no matter how often you knock him off the stage, he just comes back to get knocked off again.

Poor guy... and he tries so hard to be taken seriously.

Well that was a Short and straight to the point ;)

A Superb VillainFeb 27, 20154 votes

In loving memory, of course.

But, the sandbag actually can resist attacks... unlike veigar

Are you kidding me? He doesn't have enough health to pull off that cosplay!

ZylotheWolfbaneFeb 27, 20154 votes

To be fair, you might as well start building full tank Veigar for all that it will impact his new 'balanced' laning! :D

YoellaFeb 27, 20153 votes

I actually tried that for fun once, back before 5.4. Got almost all my AP from farming Q. I couldn't get tanky enough, I still kept getting slaughtered lol.

I needed to log in to tell you how god tier this is, thank you for the best laugh I've had all day.

Came all the way from EUW to upvote this idea. :P

It´s amazing!

Sad. He's pitiful.

A Superb VillainFeb 27, 20157 votes

And with this skin, now you can look sad while being pitiful! Thematic cohesion!

Would buy this skin

Veigar needed nerf. As a Mage I hate beeing one shooted with his R.

BerserkInfernoFeb 27, 20156 votes

slow claps

"Hello, welcome to the show of people who cannot counter play the easiest champion in the game to counter play, today's guest is this guy.

So guy, what do you think about the new Veigar?"

"Veigar needed nerf. As a Mage I hate beeing one shooted with his R."

"Shot; being; but that's besides the point, Guy, did you ever buy a decent amount of MR? And how did Veigar get so fed?"

"He kept last hitting things with Q and killing me."

"Oh? and who were you?"

"Ahri, sometimes Diana."

"Don't you know there is an item that negate all spells and leaves you impossible to target? and another that blocks a spell? and another that cleans you of CC? And when he's farming with q, you can harass him or even kill him."

"I got them, but never really tried that harassing stuff."

"Then how are you being beaten by Veigar?"

"The actives aren't going off."

"You do realize you have to activate them right?"

"WHAaaaaAAAAAaaaaTT??!?!?"

No but seriously, Veigar wasn't good. If you sat back and ate chips while he was farming then you deserved to lose.

I love this comment.

BerserkInfernoMar 1, 20151 votes

Right? And just to top it off I got the pleasure of down voting that guy twice!

YossarianSenseiFeb 28, 20152 votes

The concept of a ranged point and click "erase enemy" champion is pretty stupid to begin with, and his basically undodgeable box of death gave him some pretty ghey utility as well

I would say this Rework has left Veigar weak AF, but his original state was cancer

I think the sandbag would be more suited to everyone on the enemy team during my last Veigar game. I pride myself being able to play under the worst of nerfs. http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/1746170852/217298200?tab=overview TEN DEATHS IS NOTHING.

BerserkInfernoMar 1, 20151 votes

I commend your efforts.

A Superb VillainMar 1, 20151 votes

Yes, I can achieve an appropriate kda ratio as well.

http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/1743138894/213847620?tab=overview

However, I managed this by playing like an utter coward; I never harassed Ahri, sacrificed unreasonable amounts of cs to remain safe, and never engaged anyone on my own. My success was based purely on the efforts of my team, whereas before the nerfs I could carry myself and them. Now I must rely on my team to be relevant, and that is far from fun, it makes me feel helpless, worthless, like I could have contributed more by picking a different champion.

That is why I hate these changes. Veigar is no longer fun to play. Functional? Yes. But fun? Far from it.

toe thiefMar 1, 20151 votes

I carried my team in the game I sent you. If you have time to complain about how badly he's nerfed, you have time to get used to him taking slightly more effort to play than normal instead of Q, R, W, E PENTAKILLLL.

The first thing I have to say is I HAVE NOT PLAYED VEIGAR POST 5.4.

That said, I feel this thread could not be more wrong (scholastically.) They gave Veigar LITERALLY EVERYTHING in exchange for an ounce of counter-play. You have to place your VERY LARGE AREA STUN where your opponent wants to be, instead of directly on top of them. This seems that it could be a good zoning tool at the least. If you're on board that he's broken now because you can actually get ganked, think of where your enemy ganker wants to be (on you) and put your stun wall THERE. Event Horizon even got a SHORTER COOLDOWN, meaning the window to gank without that damned thing being a factor is smaller. But in exchange for 3/4 of a second reaction time on a MASSIVE duration AND size stun you Veigar players have gotten EVERYTHING. Lower cooldowns, lower mana cost, longer range. The only other hit Veigar took is his AP ratio damage went from 1.2 => 1.0, leaving in tact the opponent's AP ratio. If you don't suck at skillshots you can have 500+ AP @ 15 minutes. 1000+ around 30. When you have 1000+ AP and you ult dead is dead 1.2 ratio or 1.0. I feel an already powerhouse mid that gets limited pressure outside 3 to 7 junglers just got oppressively stronger. "Oh no! I'm being ganked by Fiddlesticks somewhere beyond the 10 minute mark. Guess instead of doing a full E, W, Q, R combo on him I'll just use my (still point and click) R ability on him and he'll be dead or strongly detoured because mathematically speaking I've used less mana and have stacked my Q 2-4 times as quickly. Dang...hate when I delete someone."

opinion immediately invalidated

also

His Q has a longer CD at max range, so you were wrong there. Thats huge.

SouelFeb 27, 20151 votes

Feel free to counter discuss. Don't just dismiss all that FACT. Though, I can admit Q has a .5 longer CD at rank 4 and 1 second at 5. Damn, that's so huge. Clearly, completely invalidates reasonable discussion and all that crazy AP farm he can get now that he went from 1 point every 4 seconds to two points every 5 seconds. Lemme see if I can still do Middle School math... Over 20 seconds old Q is 5 casts for 5 AP. Over 20 seconds new Q is 4 casts for 8 AP. Shoot, you're right. That's way less potential now. With more mana cost. (Both those last two sentences are meant to be read sarcastically.) Anything else?

A Superb VillainFeb 27, 20154 votes

How about the person you are laning against? Now I may not be challenger material, or even silver, but I can say that anyone who allows Veigar to farm at all, let alone efficiently with his new Q, deserves to lose. Because, as you should know, making Veigar's early game a living hell and denying him farm, or just outright killing him before he stacks AP, was a significant aspect of counterplay before he was nerfed.

Well the Final Boss is already something similar. You know how gamers like to abuse bosses over and over again, especially in those kind of modes where you beat all sorts of bosses?
