Build Comparison
SpeedHealthManaAPSpeed
This Veigar burst mage build is optimized for players looking to maximize their impact in League of Legends. Its 56.1% win rate comes from only 415 games, so treat it as an observation rather than a proven edge. The build's key strengths include devastating ability power scaling with 445 total AP. Choose this build when your team needs magic damage, especially if teammates are primarily AD-focused. Veigar with this build can punish teams that stack armor. Consider the enemy team composition when finalizing your situational items to maximize Veigar's effectiveness. However, be aware that this build lacks defensive stats making Veigar vulnerable to burst damage and no built-in sustain for extended fights. With a total gold cost of 16,100, this Veigar build scales into the late game. Focus on farming efficiently and reaching your Rod of Ages, Rabadon's Deathcap, and Seraph's Embrace power spike before taking major fights. For optimal results with this Veigar build, focus on proper itemization timing, positioning in teamfights, and adapting your situational items based on the specific challenges each game presents.
