Level 1Even / skillLevel 1 is even as Ziggs pokes but neither of you can commit a kill.
Level 2Even / skillLevel 2 stays a skill check with his range against your dodging and wave play.
Level 3Even / skillLevel 3 remains even as his poke and Satchel-clear offset your desire to engage.
Levels 4-5Even / skillLevels 4-5 are skill-dependent as you manage his minefield and pick safe walk-up windows.
Level 6LissandraAt level 6 you pull ahead because your R and gap-close let you all-in through his weak self-peel.
First itemLissandraAt first item you keep the edge whenever you can reach him with E-Flash into your combo.
Two+ itemsLissandraWith two-plus items you still win the all-in but must flank his long-range siege to land it.

Early game (levels 1–5)

Levels 1-5 are a skill matchup that tilts uncomfortable for you: Ziggs out-ranges your E with bouncing Q and shoves faster than you with Satchel, so you eat poke walking up. Dodge his Q, use minions as cover, and don't int into his W minefield trying to force something you can't reach yet.
