Read from Fiora's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Ziggs.
This is Fiora's own plan; across 264 pooled games the lane is leaning Fiora.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Fiora | His Bouncing Bomb (Q) is the only ability that reaches you at level 1 — last-hit behind the wave and don't trade into it before you have Bladework (E). |
| Level 2 | Fiora | Proccing your marked Vital deals max-HP true damage and heals you, out-sustaining a single bomb the moment his Q goes on cooldown. |
| Level 3 | Fiora | A Lunge into a Vital plus a guaranteed Bladework (E) crit is a burst no Ziggs poke combo can answer in melee range. |
| Levels 4-5 | Fiora | Your Lunge cooldown drops every time you proc a Vital, so you chain dashes and close the gap faster than he can reset his bomb timer. |
| Level 6 | Fiora | Grand Challenge (R) marks all four Vitals at once — when he Satchels (W) himself away you Lunge-chain the marks and run him down before he lands. |
| First item | Fiora | Hexdrinker into Maw lets you shrug off one bomb and survive his combo, then crit him down on any sidelane catch. |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | Fully-itemized AP Ziggs reclaims the range war — Liandry's siege-poke from off-screen kills you if you split alone or facecheck, so press your advantage and end before that. |
His Bouncing Bomb (Q) is the only thing that touches you at level 1 — last-hit behind the wave and don't trade into it before you have Bladework (E). Eat one bomb if you must, then walk up and proc your marked Vital while Q is down; the max-HP true damage and heal refund the poke. Don't chase through his Hexplosive Minefield (E) — bait that and his Satchel (W) knockback before you commit your Lunge.
