W (Satchel Charge) can destroy low HP towers — check towers below ~25% HP to one-shot them with W.
Q (Bouncing Bomb) bounces and the bounces travel farther — aim short for the first bounce to land on the target.
R (Mega Inferno Bomb) has enormous range and deals AoE damage — use it to finish a fight or clear a wave from far away.
Ziggs excels at siege and poke: stay in the back and bombard towers and enemies from a distance.

Playing against Ziggs
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
Gap-close on Ziggs: he's squishy and his only disengage is W (which also propels him).
His W is his only mobility tool — once used, he's very vulnerable.
All his abilities are AoE skillshots: move constantly to dodge.
His R center deals more damage — get out of the center of the circle even if you can't dodge entirely.
