This is Ziggs's own plan; across 2,024 pooled games the lane is even.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Ziggs | At level 1 your Short Fuse and Q out-range Yone completely while he only farms. |
| Level 2 | Ziggs | At 2 Mortal Steel's second cast dashes and knocks you up. |
| Level 3 | Ziggs | Level 3 you zone with mines and out-range his walk-up, keeping trades lopsided. |
| Levels 4-5 | Ziggs | Levels 4-5 remain in your favour as poke forces him to soak damage before six. |
| Level 6 | Yone | Level 6 flips to Yone — Fate Sealed plus the E return lets him all-in with a safety net. |
| First item | Ziggs | At his first crit item Spirit Cleave's shield eats a whole Q rotation. |
| Two+ items | Ziggs | At two items Fate Sealed (80s at rank 3) pulls you clean out of position. |
Levels 1-2 are yours — Short Fuse autos and a bounced Q chip him while he can only farm and eat poke with no gap-close online. Shove and harass, and respect only his Mortal Steel (Q) poke range.
