Veigar is a control mage with infinite AP scaling potential through his passive ability. His signature Event Horizon (cage) provides exceptional area control, though he trades early game weakness for late-game power.

Core Abilities Priority:

1. Q - Baleful Strike
2. E - Event Horizon
3. W - Dark Matter
4. R - Primordial Burst

Optimal Skill Order:

• Level 1-7: Maximize Q (Baleful Strike)
• Level 8: Add second point to W (Dark Matter)
• Level 9-13: Complete E (Event Horizon)
• Level 14-18: Finish W, then R

Passive Stacking Strategy:

• Gain AP for hitting enemy champions with abilities
• Earn 5 AP for kills and assists
• Hit enemies with abilities when safe to do so
• Get assists from enemies dying within cage area

Build Strategy:

• Focus on balanced stats: Health, Ability Haste, Movement Speed, and Magic Penetration
• Starting items prioritize early survivability
• Core items enhance AP scaling and utility
• Adapt build based on enemy composition

Laning Tips:

• Use W on melee minions followed by Q last-hits for efficient stacking
• Position cage carefully for maximum control and stacking potential
• Play safe early game while focusing on farming and scaling
• Coordinate with jungler for kill potential post-6

With proper passive stacking and item builds, Veigar transforms from a vulnerable early game mage into a late-game AP powerhouse capable of one-shotting enemies while controlling large areas of the battlefield.
