Playing against Ziggs

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Gap-close on Ziggs: he's squishy and his only disengage is W (which also propels him).

2

His W is his only mobility tool — once used, he's very vulnerable.

3

All his abilities are AoE skillshots: move constantly to dodge.

4

His R center deals more damage — get out of the center of the circle even if you can't dodge entirely.
