More Gameplay Tips for Ziggs Players

Tips and Tricks

In LoL, Ziggs can use Hexplosive Minefield to slow down his enemies and set up other abilities/combos.

Ziggs has a lot of range. With his Q, you can last hit and poke from beyond just about any enemy champion's range. Don't put yourself in unnesessary danger. Poke from range. If your enemy does get too close, you can either slow them down or launch them away with your other abilities.

Save Satchel Charge to escape from enemies or chase down enemies. You can also use it to stop your lane opponent from escaping your team's gank. When using Satchel Charge to help take down a tower, make sure you don't use it too early, or it will be wasted. There's a very strict cutoff for it to deal its bonus damage.

Additional Ziggs Build Insights

LoL Ziggs players could find him to be a complex champ to build out properly. You will find that his build changes when he is up against either diversified or highly focused team compositions, demonstrating you should not follow the same Ziggs build every single round of League of Legends

The best items to use in your champ's build are: Luden's Tempest, Zhonya's Hourglass, and Shadowflame. Players who added these pieces in their setups had a higher winrate than players who tried for other Ziggs builds. Similarly, if you are trying to beat a mixed enemy team composition, you should strongly consider getting Ziggs the Inspiration, and Sorcery runes. In recent matches, he won the greatest percentage of his rounds when equipped with these runes.
