Veigar Build
the Tiny Master of Evil
An enthusiastic master of dark sorcery, Veigar has embraced powers that few mortals dare approach. As a free-spirited inhabitant of Bandle City, he longed to push beyond the limitations of yordle magic, and turned instead to arcane texts that had been hidden away for thousands of years. Now a stubborn creature with an endless fascination for the mysteries of the universe, Veigar is often underestimated by others—but even though he believes himself truly evil, he possesses an inner morality that leads some to question his deeper motivations.
The most played Veigar Mid build on patch 26.21 runs First Strike with Magical Footwear, Biscuit Delivery and Cosmic Insight, plus Manaflow Band and Transcendence from the secondary tree. Take Flash and Teleport. Start with Doran's Ring and Health Potion, then build Luden's Echo, Spellslinger's Shoes and Stormsurge, followed by Rabadon's Deathcap, Shadowflame and Zhonya's Hourglass. Max Q (Baleful Strike) first, then W (Dark Matter), then E (Event Horizon). It has a 51.6% win rate and a 4.8% pick rate.
