How to win lane as Veigar against Lucian · 57.69% win rate over 1,014 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Veigar | Level 1 is yours because Q outranges Lucian's Piercing Light and lets you poke freely. |
| Level 2 | Veigar | Level 2 stays yours as your range and AP stacking beat his short trading window. |
| Level 3 | Veigar | Level 3 is yours with the full E-W-Q punish waiting on his E dash. |
| Levels 4-5 | Veigar | Levels 4-5 remain yours as poke and Q stacks snowball before his spike. |
| Level 6 | Lucian | Level 6 favours Lucian because his E mobility and Culling let him all-in through your cage and dodge W. |
| First item | Veigar | First item flips back to you since your completed burst deletes him before his double-shots ramp. |
| Two+ items | Veigar | 2+ items is yours because a full AP combo one-shots Lucian even through his dashes. |
Levels 1-4 are yours: Q Baleful Strike outranges Lucian's poke, so you farm safely, stack AP, and chunk him whenever he steps up. His only engage is E Relentless Pursuit, so bait the dash and drop E Event Horizon on the landing spot for a free W-Q punish.
