Track: Twitch's Q — Ambush (16s cooldown). The stealth approach starts every Twitch fight — sweep the flanks and track the disappearance.
Read from Veigar's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Twitch.
This is Veigar's own plan; across 3,198 pooled games the lane is leaning Twitch.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Veigar | Level 1 Baleful Strike out-ranges Twitch and his HP is paper-thin. |
| Level 2 | Veigar | At 2 your poke keeps chunking him with no safe trade back. |
| Level 3 | Veigar | Level 3 you can reveal-and-stun his Ambush and stack freely. |
| Levels 4-5 | Veigar | Through 4 you deny his farm and hold the kill pressure. |
| Level 6 | Veigar | Level 6 your E-stun into R deletes an immobile Twitch outright. |
| First item | Veigar | At one item your combo still one-shots his squishy frame. |
| Two+ items | Twitch | With 2+ items a popped Spray and Pray out-DPSes you from stealth range. |
Nothing about the first five levels goes his way. Baleful Strike out-ranges Twitch and he is among the flimsiest ADCs, so your poke chunks him and your stacks pile up while he can't trade back. His only real threat is Ambush stealth, so ward the river, watch for him to vanish, and keep Event Horizon ready to reveal and stun him the moment he de-stealths. Deny his farm and he falls behind fast. Your poke reaches further than his and his body is among the flimsiest in the lane, so chip him and stack at the same time. Ward the flank so the stealth is not a guess. Hover the cage for the moment he appears, because a caged Twitch has no way to leave at all.
