How it works

General
  1. This build is all about Imperial Mandate.
  2. And also all about slows.
  3. You support through disrupting fights, being annoying, Slowing/Healing/Buffing and soaking damage.
Ziggs Imperial Mandate specific
  1. You Satchel Charge (W) triggers Glacial Augument. Your Satchel Charge (W), Hexplosive Minefield (E) and Glacial triggers Font of Life. You can buy Rylai's Crystal Scepter for even more slows on Bouncing Bomb (Q).

How to play

General
  1. Your core items - Imperial Mandate and optionally Rylai's Crystal Scepter for even more slows (and consistency).
  2. Your CC triggers Glacial Augument that slows AOE. All Slows trigger Font of Life AND Imperial Mandate, healing and buffing your allies.
  3. Since LoL Patch 14.1 Imperial Mandate is changed. Now you need your team to proc it to deal any damage. So you need to play a little bit differently. Do not spam mindlessly. Try coordinating it with your team - when they are about to poke or when they go in.
  4. Font of Life heal can trigger various support items, like Ardent Censer or Staff of Flowing Water or even Moonstone Renewer!
  5. 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.

Tips and Tricks

General
  1. You can do an instant jump if you place your W directly under you, instead of placing it before you and walking to it.
Riot
  1. Even if you're far from a fight you can still help from afar with Mega Inferno Bomb.
  2. Slowing your enemies with Hexplosive Minefield makes it easier to land other abilities.
  3. Knocking yourself over walls with Satchel Charge can be great when chasing after or escaping from enemies.
