Long-range poke that cuts through Magic Resistance

Luden's Echo
Horizon Focus
Zhonya's Hourglass
Rabadon's Deathcap
Void Staff
Spellslinger's Shoes

When enemies stack Magic Resistance and have divers that reach you

This build totals +550 Ability Power along with +48% and +18 Magic Penetration. Rabadon's Deathcap's Overkill raises AP by 30%, and Void Staff supplies 40% of that penetration. Horizon Focus adds 10% to the damage you deal to an enemy champion after you hit them with an ability from 600 units away. Zhonya's Hourglass answers a dive with 2.5 seconds of invulnerability, but you cannot act at all during it and the cooldown is 90 seconds.

Ziggs Strengths

✓Fast tower-taking siege power
✓AoE poke from long range
✓Wide map support with a long-range Ult

Ziggs Weaknesses

×Every skill is a skillshot and depends on aim
×Very fragile once enemies close the gap
×No self-peel once Skill 2 is down

Early Game

Shove the wave from range with Skill 1's bouncing bomb. Hit the enemy with it too and keep up the pressure. At the same time, use the Passive-empowered Skill 1 on the tower to chip plates early. That is Ziggs's basic pattern.

Mid Game

Skill 2 destroys a tower outright once its HP is low enough. Move around the map and control the siege. When allies start a fight far away, drop Ult on it right away to pick up kills and assists.

Late Game

Late in the game, your wave clear turns you into a fortress defending towers. In standoffs before objectives, keep throwing bombs from a safe distance. The goal is to chip their HP before they can engage.

Teamfights

Ideally, fight in narrow spots like the jungle where enemies bunch up. The moment your team lands CC, center Ult on them and take a large chunk out of the whole group.

⚠️ Common Mistakes

Wasting Skill 2 (Satchel Charge) just for poke damage

Ziggs's Skill 2 is your only self-peel: it knocks enemies away and launches you to safety. It is also the key tool for finishing off low-HP towers. Throwing it out casually for poke leaves you helpless when an assassin comes for you. Keep it for self-defense at your feet, or for the final blow on a tower.

Ziggs Combos

Basic Poke

Box them in with the minefield from Skill 3 and the charge from Skill 2, then land Skill 1.

Ziggs Patch History

ZiggsPatch 7.1

Buff

Short Fuse Empowered damage AP ratio reduced Bouncing Bomb Cooldown reduced Hexplosive Minefield Cooldown reduced Ziggs works by keeping bombs on the ground constantly rather than by landing one big hit. The AP ratio on his empowered Short Fuse damage comes down, but shorter cooldowns on Bouncing Bomb and Hexplosive Minefield mean he simply gets to cast more often. A fully built Ziggs hits a little softer per cast, while poking behind a shoved wave and denying ground before a fight both get easier.
