Optional Summoner Spells

Exhaust

Exhaust

Defensive option. Exhaust for peeling against enemy divers and assassins and protecting yourself.

Heal

Heal

Classic ADC option. Gives you and a teammate a burst of movement speed and health in clutch moments.

Cleanse

Cleanse

Underrated, not super easy to use, requires skill and getting used to it, but very good option. It is blessing if you pick it blindly against heavy CC comps. Frees you from disables and exhaust to keep you dealing damage.

How it works

  1. ADC Veigar is an ability-oriented ADC build. You auto attack, but also use abilities.
  2. You build Navori Flickerblade alongside AD and Crit.
  3. Thanks to Navori Flickerblade, your basic ability cooldowns get reduced every time you auto attack.

Playstyle

  1. ⏱️

    Keep attacking to constantly reduce your ability cooldowns via Navori Flickerblade.

  2. ⚔️

    Weave auto attacks between your abilities to consume sweet Essence Reaver procs.

  3. 💧

    Essence Reaver provides infinite mana, so don't be afraid to spam.

How to play

ADC Veigar

  1. Your default skill order is maxing Event Horizon (E)! Sometimes, for more damage you can max Baleful Strike (Q) first, but overall E max is much better.
  2. Thanks to your Phenomenal Evil Power (Passive), you have lots of AP, so your abilities still do solid damage.
  3. Your Primordial Burst (R) still executes people, even when playing ADC Veigar build.
  4. Do not be shy and do not wait for 'special moment'. You have the best engaging tool available - your Event Horizon (E)!

Stacking

  1. Even when playing off-meta builds like ADC Veigar, it's extremely important to stack and gain AP from Phenomenal Evil Power (Passive). The permanent AP matters in the long run.

Getting started

  1. You go Navori Flickerblade, AD and Crit.
  2. Don't rush Navori Flickerblade. Usually go for it as your #2 or #3 item once you have some raw AD from Essence Reaver or The Collector.

Adapting

  1. Since this build relies heavily on abilities, make sure you prioritize items that give raw AD or armor penetration like Lord Dominik's Regards against tanky teams.

During fights

  1. Weave your auto attacks! Keep auto attacking to reduce your basic abilities' cooldowns as well as use Essence Reaver sweet proc.
  2. Your DPS comes from the synergy between your spells and attacks, so don't just rely on one or the other.

Tips and Tricks

Riot

  1. Use Event Horizon to increase your chances of landing Dark Matter.
  2. Veigar is extremely Mana and Cooldown Reduction dependent. Try buying items with these stats in order to increase the effectiveness of your passive and Baleful Strike.
  3. Veigar is very fragile. It is valuable to select at least one summoner spell that can be used defensively.
