Notes

  1. Updated for 14.3 League of Legends Patch.

How to play

  1. You rush Heartsteel.
  2. After Heartsteel, you can rush Titanic Hydra (more fun, damage and some survi) AND/OR Sundered Sky or just go full tank - depending on if you are behind and if your team needs more damage.
  3. Sundered Sky is very good damage item for this build. It scales off your HP (so Grasp, Heartsteel, Overgrowth). It gives damage and pretty good sustain in fights. Remember to switch targets to maximize the effect!
  4. This is auto attack oriented Veigar build, so do it! Especially if running with Titanic Hydra and Sundered Sky as well.
  5. Guardian's Horn is a surprisingly good item for its price. You can keep it for a very long time (or even have it as 6th item).
  6. Triumph is better (heal + gold), but if you want to have easier time with your mana, go Presence of the Mind.
  7. You need to adapt your items to the game. Enemy team heavy on AP? Buy MR. They heavy on AD? Buy Armor. You need some damage? Well buy that.
  8. Remember to consume your Heartsteel procs!
  9. Remember to consume your Grasp of the Undying procs!
  10. Your default skill order is maxing E! Sometimes, for more damage you can max Q first, but overall E max is much better.
  11. Thanks to your Passive, you will have lots of AP, so your abilities still will do good damage.
  12. Your R will still execute people, even when playing Tank Veigar build.
  13. Do not be shy and do not wait for 'special moment'. You have best engaging tool available - your E!

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.
