How to win lane as Ziggs against Naafiri · 52.41% win rate over 704 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Ziggs | Level 1 your Q range out-distances her early poke so you win the opening. |
| Level 2 | Ziggs | Level 2 you keep zoning her packmates off the wave with E. |
| Level 3 | Ziggs | Level 3 your range and minefield still control every trade. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 are a skill test because her dash all-in can be cancelled by a clean W read. |
| Level 6 | Ziggs | Level 6 favours you since a saved satchel denies her ultimate all-in. |
| First item | Ziggs | First item stays yours as your poke keeps her low before her lethality burst lands. |
| Two+ items | Ziggs | Two items onward is yours: your zoning walls off her only route to you. |
Levels 1-3 are yours: your Q out-ranges her Q Darkin Daggers and your E minefield punishes her packmates, so keep the wave central and poke her every time she steps up to last-hit.
