How to Use Veigar Counter Data
Every figure on this page, including which champions counter Veigar and which ones Veigar beats, comes from live ranked Mid lane matchup data. Right now Riven, Sion, and Hwei are the lane matchups that hurt Veigar most, producing its weakest win rates in the current data. Riven is the hardest of the three: Veigar wins only 41.1% of its 185 recorded games against them. Smolder, Azir, and Mel, on the other hand, are matchups where Veigar does well, so they are safer to face.
Each card lists Veigar’s win rate along with the number of games it is based on. A matchup with tens of thousands of games carries much more weight than one with a few hundred. The Easy, Even, and Hard tags are derived from those win rates: under 48% is labeled Hard, and over 52% is labeled Easy. They are a quick way to read the numbers, not a separate statistic. The data covers ranked games at Emerald and above in every region, is currently from patch 16.13.1, and updates every 48 hours, so the results shift as the meta does. Matchups are only part of the picture. For the strongest items and runes, see the current Veigar build, and for abilities and full champion details, visit the Veigar champion page.
