I just got ziggs and I love playing him. His poke his out of this world (one game, I threw a random Q over the enemies base wall and I shut down a fiddlesticks), and he is just fun to play. But, the problem is that Ziggs does horrible against assassins like zed, akali or even kassadin. Can you give me some tips when dealing with these match ups? Thx.
Snowfox1 votesPre 6, Ziggs is great against assassins. Just keep them at range with Q and force them to farm under tower.

ToughFluffs1 votesThis, this, this. E is, in reality, probably the most useful thing in Ziggs' kit. It's very quick, and a single, well-placed knockback can throw an entire gank out the window. Not to mention, it can be used on you AND/OR the enemy. Not only can it knockback the enemy, or knockback you, but if they're close enough, drop it right between the two of you and light it up. You'll send them backwards, AND send yourself flying back. However, do be aware that if you are directly on top of it, and not off to the side of it, you will be knocked up instead of back.
Zidaryn1 votesI've just picked up Ziggs myself so I'm still working on this. Satchel Charge does help you get out of situations, but it takes work (still working on). Another strategy is to just try to keep back and farm. That one comes from Does this look dangerous to you? Ziggs In depth Guide!
