Ziggs Build
the Hexplosives Expert
With a love of big bombs and short fuses, the yordle Ziggs is an explosive force of nature. As an inventor's assistant in Piltover, he was bored by his predictable life and befriended a mad, blue-haired bomber named Jinx. After a wild night on the town, Ziggs took her advice and moved to Zaun, where he now explores his fascinations more freely, terrorizing the chem-barons and regular citizens alike in his never ending quest to blow stuff up.
The most played Ziggs Bot build on patch 26.21 runs Arcane Comet with Manaflow Band, Transcendence and Scorch, plus Coup de Grace and Presence of Mind from the secondary tree. Take Flash and Teleport. Start with Doran's Ring and Health Potion, then build Luden's Echo, Sorcerer's Shoes and Shadowflame, followed by Rabadon's Deathcap, Zhonya's Hourglass, Void Staff and Horizon Focus. Max Q (Bouncing Bomb) first, then E (Hexplosive Minefield), then W (Satchel Charge). It has a 51.2% win rate and a 1.6% pick rate.
