Veigar Support effectively combines crowd control and burst damage potential. Here's the optimal build and strategy:

Core Build:

• Summoner Spells: Flash + Ignite
• First Item: Zaz'Zak's Realmspike
• Core Items: Sorcerer's Shoes, Luden's Companion
• Late Game: Stormsurge, Rabadon's Deathcap, Void Staff

Most Effective Rune Setup:

• Primary: Arcane Comet, Manaflow Band, Transcendence, Gathering Storm
• Secondary: Cheap Shot, Ultimate Hunter

Skill Order: Q > W > E

Key Matchups: Strong Against:

Pro Tips:

1. Time your E (cage) when enemies commit to forward movement
2. Use Q to stack Support item for bonus AP
3. Target squishy supports with Primordial Burst (R) for quick eliminations
