Tips Against Viego in the Jungle Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
GiAEcchI says “You lose to him at early game, you can duel him with Ironspike Whip, with ignite it would be easy, at mid game fight wait until both of you are 1/3 hp low, and react ult into him when he ults.”
checca says “Viego is fairly easy to play against. Avoid holding your E cast when he is going to stun you with his W. Also, be careful not to cast CC on Viego when he is using R as it makes him unstoppable. This usually isn't a problem, as the chance of him casting R and Zac casting CC at the same time are so low that it will probably never happen. If Viego picks up the Zac Soul, he will take it, and if he dies as the Zac Soul, he will spawn four little cute blobs that will make you tilt on your gray screen. Besides this, you will beat Viego at almost every stage of the game unless he rushes BOTRK. If that happens, you will beat him post-level 11.”
Kindredgarten says “Viego is almost a minor threat as to how easy it is to 1v1 him by Q’ing his W stun. The problem is that your team dies to him and gives him resets. Peel your team with your R when he R’s them.”
Davecraft16 says “You can dodge his only stun, the w, you can kite him really easily and your are stronger in early game. The only way you can lose is that your teamates start feeding him or his micro and macro are way better than yours.”
Kukiziuu_ says “Hes really difficult matchup because usually you just cant 1v1 him. If you play kayn NEVER fight him try to play near objectives and dodge his R with your R, if you play assasin kayn you got pretty fine play you can kite him hard with your w and you have so much mobility. if your ahead you can just oneshot him.”
RedNBlue says “Kill him pre-level 5 or 6 and invade his camps. Keep him levels behind, and match any gank he performs with a counter gank and he will be easily controlled.
”
RaidenKaos says “Can have scarily high burst but is no problem as of late. Don't fight him head on especially without R. If you can't dodge his stun throw a W to try and land 2 passive stacks or E away - the stun won't stop your animation.”
Riccardo126 says “Viego is not in a good spot in the meta, but still remember that a fed viego is a 1vs9 machine and can still outduel you if he hits his stun. Play cautiously”
MythicalMinute says “most Viegos still go the divine build so it's whatever really, he excels in 1v1's and teamfights but not really 2v1's so try invade him early and get a lead, if not spam gank and farm until 6 then dont be scared to invade him again.
AD (No Mythic) Is great here.”
RiaAllure says “This guy is pretty even with you, try and pick up kills before him , know where he's at - get objectives and you should do pretty well. ”
Unfortunate 7 says “you cant kill him ever, unless he is behind good luck even hitting him, if he is even slightly behind thats a phat +300 tho when you hit a barrel combo so hard isolde even winces”
spuki97 says “Not that strong but can snowball hard. If you wanna fight him 1v1 make sure to dodge his ult. If he starts getting resets in teamfight, make sure to abuse the window when he takes a squishy target body. Best build: All”
Kao_Oak says “If he gets ahead he might beat you in 1v1. The main issue with this champ is that he can get a kill, his passive will make him a pain to kill, therefore denying you your ability to reset your spells and crush the teamfight.”
Atemporal says “Viego tem uma sustentação absolutamente louca no início do jogo com seu Q + double auto. Ele cura cerca de 20-25 hp por Q auto em lacaios, então não faz sentido negociar com ele nos primeiros níveis. Limpe as ondas, sobreviva cedo e deixe-o empurrar você em.
Lembre-se de que Viego pode fazer roaming muito rapidamente devido ao seu E, portanto, certifique-se de verificar seus possíveis roams iniciais. Por volta do nível 6, você pode começar a lutar com ele. Se ele usar W em sua direção, E para evitá-lo, então E Q o auto-ajuda e corra.
Nunca faça lutas prolongadas contra Viego, pois ele empilha Conqueror em 1-2 segundos e ele apenas se curará. Se ele não usar W para ser agressivo com você, você ainda pode trocar jogando Qs nele, então usando E para redirecionar o Q para retornar instantaneamente
proc passivo e execute. Quando você está indo para matá-lo, certifique-se de não se mover muito. Se você conseguir ter seu R em cima de si mesmo, você pode evitar o R de Viego enquanto também o acerta. Esta é uma das principais maneiras de matar Viego.
Se você está procurando matar 1v1, certifique-se de se envolver com ele assim que suas habilidades surgirem. Não deixe espaço para ele roubar vida e se curar. Torna-se extremamente difícil matar Viego se ele for para o Immortal Shieldbow, mas assim que
você tem seus 3 itens, você pode lutar com ele. Durante todo o jogo. Tomar Ignite oferece muito mais ameaça de morte ao longo do jogo, combinar Igntie com TP ou flash é bom. Se você tem Ignite, você tem ameaça de morte antecipada, o
a melhor maneira de trocar cedo é para Q por farm, enquanto também tenta acertar o Viego com esse mesmo Q. Assim que o Q estiver voltando, E para redirecionar o Q e obter um proc passivo rápido. Semelhante ao confronto Akali, o stun de Viego (seu W) pode ser
bloqueado por lacaios, então tente entrar quando houver um lacaio no caminho para bloquear o atordoamento de Viego. Se você negociar com Viego uma vez, você precisa tentar negociar novamente o mais rápido possível ou ir para um all-in para impedir que ele cure todo o dano que você causou.
Se você não se envolver com ele novamente depois de uma troca, você estará apenas desperdiçando mana e hp e não há sentido em negociar então.”
Doubtfull says “Viego isn't too much trouble for us. Make sure you lock him down with your E and let your team go into beat down mode. Don't let him get resets off or you might be in trouble.”
BattleCatsRoyale says “I'll say this here, since Viego can use every champion's abilities (because game design). Essentially, every proper jungler will likely outscale you, invade you, more easily gank lanes, or otherwise just be entirely more useful in every way. This is an off meta role, after all. However, Viego himself is less of a problem *for your team* if you can track him, but still wins the solo fight and will likely invade because they will know this.”
DarkAuraLOL says “Viego is possible to cheese and win early levels, but no matter how much lead you get, you will get outscaled and he will be able to 1v1 you, when he gets plated steelcaps and deathdance, you will be outscaled.”
Eagzey says “Has good DPS, sustain, mobility (with W and R) so the matchup isn't as free as it may seem. If he goes something like BORK with Steelcaps he kinda becomes a budget Yi. Just kite him out before engaging.”
Saltu says “This one is quite difficult but in general, if you aren't behind you RUSH AND KILL.
Simping bitch is only good when being someone else, LAME ALERT. but for real, if he gets a passive activation in a TF just leave. Heavy must focus on TFs.”
DixonTheGuideMaker says “When skirmishing with Viego, try to make sure there is a minion, monster or crab in between you and him so it blocks the CC on his Spectral Maw(W). Viego has good objective control. Try to keep major objectives warded so you can spot him before he is able to secure the objective for his team. If you counter gank Viego, keep an eye out on him stealing your allies abilities and turning the exchange around. Be prepared to fall back if he kills and takes over your ally.”

domjakf says “He becomes a pain in the ass as soon as he gets wit's end/maw. It pretty much becomes unplayable after that point since you can't match him. Look for leads early and you could win.”
lumihehe says “suprisingly, you can kinda fight viego early-mid game, so long as he's not fed. you definitely beat him late game unless he gets a quadruple passive ult reset lmao”
Salmon Kid says “Lillia favored match up. Resets pose a problem in terms of kiting, but with max stacks you can avoid most of Viego's damage and kite him easily.”
warmfishu says “Viego's Blade of the Ruined King (Q) does percent current health damage, attacks twice after an ability, and is an auto reset. Combined with him often building attack speed, he can whittle Yuumi down very quickly. His Spectral Maw (W) is a dash-stun that will reset Yuumi's W, so be careful if he is nearby or if you see the mist of Harrowed Path (E). If Viego gets a takedown on Yuumi, he will be able to possess her and use all of her abilities, including attaching to his allies to heal, hurt, or escape.”
Simple Shawn says “[TL;DR - CONTEST EARLY IF RUNNING CONQ OR IF YOU HAVE A HP ADVANTAGE. YOU 1v1 HIM AFTER EARLY POWERSPIKE.]
[Viego is a very snowbally champion, basically you have to not let him gank everywhere, or countergank/punish him so that he's not ahead enough to oneshot your team then make you 1v5. If you're behind, you can still begin to duel him at like 1 or 2 items, even though he has 3 of them, if he's overconfident and extend the duel (which will determinate if you comeback or not), you'll eventually win it. I recommend on W'ing when you see his E or atleast when he's approaching you since his W + AA + Q + AA deal basically 4 autos, that's quite a lot. Keep your R when your W is on cooldown and duelling him after early powerspike shouldn't be a problem.]
[ADCish ATTACKYBRUISER CHAMPION]”
ItsAydam says “Viego is a really strong skirmisher late game, but is one of the weakest against kindred because of his skill shots. You can dodge his W and beat him, and dodge his Q by predicting when he will press it. Most of the times viego players auto you and then Q to auto attack cancel, so time your Q after his auto attack. If you're ahead you can one shot him just make sure to keep your distance.”
Nik7857 says “This matchup is elise favoured so hard. Dont go the conqueror build. He can still snowball out of control but elise can really just shut him down.”
Fadeyboii says “He either builds Divine Sunderer or Kraken Slayer, eitherway he deals a lot of true damage or max health damage to you, BORK as a 2nd item also is trouble, and then he gets Death's Dance. Kinda hard to play against.”
NegativePhoenix says “Unless he's fed, not a real challenge till late game. You can beat him in most 1v1s most stages if you avoid his stun engage and ult zone. If he snowballs don't fight him alone. For the most part you'll win alot of the fights if you can catch him out and he is not too fed.”
Krast666 says “Fighting against Viego is horrible. Your stun doesn't bother him, he goes invisible and has no mana. Try getting someone to help you with the scuttle fight. You'll get better at this counter eventually.”
NegativePhoenix says “The matchup here is iffy. Viego is squishy so you can still one tap him however if you let him get too close he'll provide you with a real challenge. Don't fight him early game unless he's already low and once mid-late game comes around unless he gets the drop on you or is ahead you'll win most fights.”
quinn adc says “This matchup I have only played twice toplane, but from my games, I think it is okay. I will update this more when I face him more.
E cancels his W stun, and basically play the lane aggro, and if he uses his stealth ability, try to fight him after it expires because you have a short window to do a lot of damage to him.
Post 6, if he Rs you, Vault him instantly and run away to escape his engage. Do not dive him when his stealth ability is up becasue it is such a good ability to prevent diving from happening.”
Boptimus says “Viego Top is becoming a lot more rare recently. His sustain on minions isn't as obnoxious as it was on release but I would still consider buying an Oblivion Orb early on. You'll be able to sustain through his Q poke early with your Passive/W.
Never look for an extended trade/fight with Viego because you will lose 100% of the time.
Be careful when you go for an all-in because he can use his R to cancel the CC from either your E or R.”
GrayJinxed says “He can't do anything to you if you dodge is stun (W) with your hop (Q). When he has Ult (R), you want to be extra careful be a bit further away than usual.”
DarkMareOfficial says “I would say he is minor-even. Dodge his Stun timing your Decoy (W) and you can demolish any viego. If you don't depends on how fed he is he might have a small chance of winning against you. Just dodge his W. :P”
Majd1 says “Even matchup until he gets Witts End or Maw of Malmortius. At that point it becomes unplayable for Nidalee even if you have Void Staff. Therefore try and get a lead in the early game because that is where you have the upper hand.”
YoungTact says “This champion has crazy snowball potential. You clear slightly faster and generally come out healthier so don't be afraid to look for early skirmishes. Your W works on his W but if u get hit by it you will still get stunned like amumu Q for comparison. Anti heal is worth building here.”
Hienaa says “All easy for being melee champs, not on tier 2 because they can all build seekers, and viego is just broken so it’s a little tricky to play vs him sometimes.”
Madabc says “Pretty to easy to beat. Play like it a normal matchup you can one burst him if he does any build, but the bruiser one. If he goes shieldbow for some reason go serpents. Get exe if he goes sunderer. Rush your crit items if he goes Kraken. ”
ARealFakeIdentity says “Viego is only able to get to you with his ult, as long as you are able to control areas to keep him away this matchup should be easier than most.”
Janooobi says “Viego is extremely tricky throughout the game, he has the damage to kill you solo and can be a menace in teamfights with his passive, you can hold onto your E for after he uses his passive on a teammate to make it easier to lock him down. Either that or commit your entire kit to kill him before his team can react”
Consolo says “If he goes crit build, stun him before he can even GET to a dead body. If he gets one, stun him then. If you're fighting without anyone dying yet, stun him. Early game? Stun him. Getting a pick? Stun him. If he is stunned in crit build, he folds like a dick in cold water. If he's going bruiser build, standard peeling rules and conditions apply. He does much less damage with that build, and is still killed fairly easily when peeled off.”
Scythe Prince says “Viego is strong in early game because of his kit and (R) , you have to give crap in early game but once you have either if your forms you can beat him
try to be around him to counter gank”
Afstand says “Depends heavily on how fed he is and how far ahead you are, but for the most part it's an okay match-up. The issues come post-6 when he can ult reset and become anyone on your team.”
Tiger-Moose says “I have trouble deciding whether this is an even matchup or a harder one. I dislike playing against this champ, but he is probably an even matchup.
//A lot of the difficulty versus Viego is how good he is in teamfights. If he possesses a person or two, you can assume the fight is lost at that point. Try to focus him in fights within reason.
//His build dictates whether or not he can easily solo kill you. If he has Bork and a functioning right click, he can chunk you fast.”
MrMeem45 says “If you dodge his W, he's dead. If you invade his jungle, he's dead. Viego pops off when his enemies don't counter him at all. Just - just show up. That's all you have to do. He'd be a 1 if your teammates couldn't screw the pooch on him too.”
b0n0 says “I Can't handle Viego. I feel like Viego scales better and overall just has a stronger kit to duel. If you're fed this is a lot easier but if Viego gets even a little ahead it's good night for us. Try to apply pressure really early to win. ”
J98TheGreat says “He can be a problem for you early on, so you can go for immediately ganking instead of getting the first Scuttler as you will probably just get it taken. The more you focus on helping your lanes win, the less relevant he will be.”
OnslaughtOfPwnys says “Not that strong after the nerfs. Still a big threat since no one knows how to play against him by my prersonal experience. Still a hard fight for you.”
GranadaExperimental says “Viego, one of the best jungle champions, is usually a bigger threat to Kayn, Given his high damage in early game, as well as his auto attacks and abilities tend to deal a lot of damage and I have very rarely been able to beat one. at the start of the game (between 0:50 - 10:00)”
King Fidd says “A very annoying champion. Once he has Shieldbow and Mercury Treads you lose the ability to 1v1 him with ult. You will need an ally to help you burst him down before he pops off and gets his resets in fights.”
Da Mastah says “You can easily outfarm, outscale, and outduel him at all points in the game. Look for invades and abuse him in the Jungle if you get a significant lead.”
Mayday36 says “Viego can be a big threat because of his passive which gives him a large amount of percentage health damage on his autos which can make it really hard to win extended trades with him.”
The Elysian1 says “Another not a big deal champ but his passive makes him Even of Threat for Qiyana. 1v1s can be dangerous but if you have a lot of CC chain with your teammates try finding a window to shut him down. He will probably invade you , so put pink wards in your jungle.
”
Pusi Puu says “You beat him at every stage of the game unless he's super ahead. Always fight him when you can and look to invade him since he has no escape tools. Try to kill him first so he doesn't get to use his passive.”
NixLychee says “High damage, sustain, strong CC, stealth, and some incredible objective taking, akin to Master Yi, although his early game is quite weak, and you can bully him before he gets his items. Make sure to set him behind before he can outscale you. ”
SnowballBarrage says “Used to be worse of a matchup, both tank and AP are solid against viego, tank is better though. Make sure to always focus him so he doesn't get a soul reset.”
Riealone says “Plated Steelcaps and Bramble Vest is the best counter to that champion. Try to focus him in teamfights to deny his reset-on-kill oriented gameplay ”
Veralion says “Viego's been overnerfed and now struggles to get his snowball rolling. His winrate in jungle is godawful. You should have no issues at all beating him in a 1v1. The champ is extremely low value until he can get his possessions off, so you only need to be careful if he gets a few lucky kills and has some damage. Just be careful if he's around a low health teammate and you should be good to go. ”
Asternova says “RUNES: Dark Harvest. Phase Rush if necessary.
ITEMS: Zhonya's Hourglass. Morellonomicon against his healing.
GAMEPLAY SUMMARY: Viego is a skirmisher similar to Master Yi, where a single kill in a teamfight can snowball and grant him victory. He's not an early game jungler, but he's not the worst either, don't challenge him unless you have a lead/he's behind. Wait for him to waste his own ult before using R so he can't cancel it, or just ult as fast as you can to potentially bait our his R or get a sleep off on him if he doesn't want to waste the cooldown.”
MexBookMaster says “Viego está muy fuerte en la jungla y eso todos lo sabemos. Rhaast con Ignite es muy bueno debido a que se cura mucho. Lleva el Castigo Rojo y no dejes que saque ventaja porque carrea muy duro este campeón, esquiva su E y si vas con ventaja puedes matarlo.”
AST Raposo says “Just don't try to 1v1 him on jungle and everything is fine. But also make sure he won't be too much ahead in comparison to you. Teamfights you will have the chance to do more than him.”
Lambda Diana says “He isn't very strong right now make sure to get orb early on as he has a lot of healing in his kit and items he does out scale so try to in early. If he can get passive resets you aren't going to have a fun time. Do your best to set him behind and end early with rifts. ”
ItsSkoob says “Weaker than you early game but if he gets resets in a big fight you're doomed. Just try to keep ahead and dont let him get that one big fight.”
SketchtheHunter says “The problem I have with Viego is it only takes one idiot for him to take over a game. Rush a Oblivion Orb or Bramble Vest and keep the pressure up. Needs good tracking to keep down.”
Bangu54graus says “KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK CHAMPION Q DA AUTOATTACK CONTRA RAMMUS XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD SO FAZER EGIDE Q VC SOLA ELE BRINCANDO”
Suseri says “Dodge his stun or follow his R with your Q, he can deal alot of damage but you scale better so later on you should be good. Also try to stop him from getting takedowns otherwise he will heal alot.”
RichMrFork says “Grab grievous wounds. Play with your team to not let him get resets on your allies. His skirmishing and dueling is extremely strong so try to avoid fighting him alone unless you already built a lead. Don't let him get stray kills no matter how far behind he is as Viego is one of the most snowball champs in the entire game.”
LilPaniniUwU says “This champ is frankly pretty disgusting right now. Absurd damage, sustain, strong CC, stealth, and some incredible objective taking, akin to Master Yi. This is my personal least favorite matchup because if you're even with Viego he is still stronger than you at most points in the game.
”
metalhydra273 says “VIego will get mauled if you ult him, but he's a duelist by heart and can really dish out some damage if you find yourself alone with him. Play around your cc and don't let him burst you down with his dps. Running him down shouldn't be difficult, so pick fights carefully and he shouldn't be too big of an issue. Fail to find an advantage, however, and he can find ways to wreak havoc. Fun fact, if Viego builds qss and takes a form of a teammate who doesn't have it, he can't use it anymore! Keep this in mind should that situation come up.”
AggroBeat says “Honesly, Viego isn't that much of a threat. Try to focus him on team fights, and don't try to fight him, unless you can land a beefy stun on him. Other than that, this is an even matchup.”
PulseBeat_02 says “Be very careful around him. Always make sure you have a black shield in handy to block his stun. When he goes into camouflage, make sure to have that fast reaction time. ”
victus6060 says “Really just whoever is better although if you are ahead and someone kills you, everyone is done for. A sylas secondary player will have a field day with your soul becuase they get your W's insane healing plus all your CC and burst damage.”
Vispectra says “He's been nerfed a few times and he can spiral out of control. I'm not sure if he can kill you in lane my matchups into him usually don't end up with me dying since he shouldn't be able to burst you and his stun is pretty slow unless he taps it. He can snowball pretty hard. ”
BlackFalcon2005 says “Viego, Viego, what to say about Viego. He is just one champ but every champ at the same time. Still, when he is himself his damage is still pretty strong.”
MrMeem45 says “Probably about the most even matchup here. If you get a kill or two, never leave him alone. He doesn't outscale you and you don't outscale him. Unleash all of your burst on him the second he possesses one of your squishy teammates and, as with nearly every champion, the baron quickdraw strat is your best friend.”
TheOneEyedGhost says “Viego has a lot of healing in a 1v1 you will tie, until he use his SS. Always try to alpha strike early to dodge his attacks and use meditate to reduce the damage of his SS. Try to pick up an early Executioner's Calling to cancel out his healing.”
SoSheolH says “In the right hands, Viego is busted. He has ridiculous sustain with his lifesteal, high damage and his passive can win teamfights, since he can possess you and CC your team if he kills you early on in it. Don't fight him at all if your team's not there to burst him out while you tank the damage, and even then you have to be extremely careful. With him only really being played mid recently and just having received a nerf to that position, you shouldn't see him much, but when you do, watch out.”
litecrunch says “He will fuck you up in a 1v1. If he is in a teamfight he should be the first priority target because he can get so many resets off kills. Don't try to duel him unless you are decently fed.”
TheInkKingLoL says “Difficult to fight. Easy to tell when he's ganking because of his E. Look to invade him or countergank him. Take early objectives.”
chevy the sloot says “Kinda hard to say so far even though I spammed him on PBE. You farm way faster than him but he hard out duels you and out ganks you early. Just track him early and hope your team doesn't die to him. After 6 with red smite, you should be ahead in farm and can kill him easy unless he's rushing MR. ”
c0st0m says “very easy to kite can fight him at more or less all stages of the games dont get hit by his w also he can buy wits end & hexdrinker to minimize ur damage so look out for that and consider buying demonic if need be”
EversideHS says “Against Viego your primary goal is to not feed him. Just farm your camps until you can get an item lead, fighting before then he out sustains you.”
DarkWither says “His gap closer is on the lower hand of the spectrum this is why I did not put him into extreme, overall champs with gap closers that do damage really quickly (before you can w & e them) are the best counter to Taliyah but with enough practice you can get a decent game against Viego if you have enough experience on her.”
Tofolo says “Viego al momento è un problema in generale, se chi lo usa ha studiato è troppo sbilanciato. Ha una capacità di carry fuori scala nei team fight. Per ora da problemi un po' a tutti (mi aspetto dei Nerf migliori su di lui...) in compenso a bassi livelli è facile trovare gente che non lo usa con scioltezza perché comunque è nuovo e non proprio easy da usare e capire, in quel caso siete fortunati e lo distruggete. Resta la difficoltà 5 come monito per voi e protesta a DIORIOT. ”
waayWest says “Hard matchup, if he lands his stun you can say goodbye to your HP. Maybe it's possible to beat him if you approach him similarly to kayn?”
Wolf Rengar says “Recommended: Electrocute Rune Page/Build.
Tips: Dodge his W and don't fight him solo when he will be ahead ever.
Viego is really strong in solo duels but you might oneshot him before he will even use his spells so look for that.
”
Get Ricked says “Viego is really strong and beats you early as well. If he gets a lead you can't take him on. If you dodge his W you can take him after lvl 6. If not, he just kills you”
Joshzki says “Viego is a terrible match up for Sej, thi s is mainly because his kit naturally makes him a tank destroyer, he will pretty much beat you 1v1 at any point in the game and you should start your red so that you don't face him at scuttle because you will lose unless you have mid prio.”

Tips Against Viego in Middle Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
kaiba77 says “Underrated midlaner. He will W to cancel your E which makes it hard. Hes very strong early because his Q passive. You win after level 6. Take sustain for his Q poke.”
StralekS says “Not Playable: Conqueror/ Resolve (Conditioning and Overgrowth), Ignite + Flash, Doran Shield/ Dark Seal start. Play lane safely, farm, and when he wastes ability, punish him with Q and if you are in good situation go all in. Idealy go full AP. Recommended Sunderer rush with Doran Shield start. BOTRK works really well too.”

Se você não se envolver com ele novamente depois de uma troca, você estará apenas desperdiçando mana e hp e não há sentido em negociar então.”

Dustyacer says “The nerfed Lane viego to the ground. His q has 600 range whereas yours has 560, but it does no dmg in the beginning. You can kinda just press W on him and win. He is kinda like a katarina in that he just sucks in lane and just picks up kills and carries. Ping his roams, he can mind game a lot with his e. Use your ult to countergank top/bot. Also when he transforms into you, he gets our passive fully stacked btw.”
lumihehe says “suprisingly, you can kinda fight viego early-mid game, so long as he's not fed. you definitely beat him late game unless he gets a quadruple passive ult reset lmao”
SulkingKING says “Kills you faster than you might expect if he's Jungling or Top Lane, but if he's your lane opponent you'll win most of the time with ease.”

[Starting Item: Doran's Ring or Corrupting Potion]
[Recommended Mythic Item: Everfrost]
[Stay out of his range and poke him from distance]

Azurio says “Viego really struggle mid nowadays, you can hard pressure him, you just have to dodge his W with your dash.
Play aggresive and try to kill him early, but don't take too much damage from wave.”
ThePieBeam says “His dash thing can't go through walls so just run away if he tries to use his juice to run at you. Also, if you can predict the range of his dash-stun thing will hit you can wall under him to cancel the channel. Otherwise it's just a melee fight with a weirdly long poke. Still not long enough to be too much worry but if you avoid dumb positioning it'll be an easy lane.”
TcKatfish says “[Press The Attack Runes / Long Sword and Refillable Pots start.] Viego poses no threat unless he can hit his W. This is super telegraphed and dodge-able so be sure to not get hit by this. Stand behind minions to assure that you don't. Harass him and don't let him farm for free. ”
lonestar1870 says “Viego is not seen much mid anymore after his lane sustain was nerfed, but you shouldn't have too much trouble vs him.
Play safe when your E is down and play smart when he uses his mist.
You have a big range advantage and a lot more waveclear than him. Try to build a cs lead and slowly poke him out of lane.
He can kill you easily if he hits R and stun on you (if you have no stun to escape).
Electrocute is nice for more damage and Aery is decent too. PR is great to be able to run away from him when he tries to engage.
I prefer Teleport but ignite is still good for more kill threat.
Get a void staff if he builds MR.”
WayOfTheTempesst says “Matchup can be a little annoying due to his high burst and out sustains you early. Similar to the Sylas matchup just play to scale and not trade dmg early esp if you take Conq and you will outscale. Take 2nd wind and shieldbash.”
WayOfTheTempesst says “Facing Viego you have to windwall his W and try to dash out of his ulti. His Q -AA trades are strong so if you get hit by Q, back off and wait until his mark falls off. His sustain is a lot better than yours until you reach Shieldbow. ”
Katawina52 says “Really hard to kill 1v1 until you have 1 item so u can all in him and easily win, but before your 1st item this lane is near impossible to kill, but he is easy to kill if your jungler/support comes with cc. Also be careful to not run it down, 1 kill can get viego rolling.”
Avucado says “Start E, wait for him to Q then E through him. His Q has a 4ish sec cd so get your HoB then leave. He can poke you but can't really kill you unless you overstep. Watch for his flash W and you should be fine. Save E for his R and look to hook him into tower if he's close enough. Don't fight in extended trades and ping if he roams.”
XayLies says “The Ruined King is really strong, I'll recommend igniting him and never go one by one against him - he wll just get another and another ults. instead, group up against him because his AoE Power isn't great and he'll find himself stuck between your teammates eventually.”
angeLoon says “lethal Dblade. second wind and unflinching.
you can easily win this matchup if you block his W,
since viego have been nerfed as a laner hes not a trouble anymore.”
Dr Eggmund says “Once he jumps on you with his stun, it's hard to keep him off. Position yourself with caution, he heals with attacks so poking him down will be less effective. The plan is to farm from a distance with Q and put yourself in a position where your jungler has a better time ganking him then they can to you.”
Coldsong says “Viego has really good dueling potential. Similar to Akali shroud, wait out his E since it gives him camoflague and attack speed. Also beware when he possesses someone, as it makes him untargetable. Flashing his R is very important and try to not let him predict you if you E away.”
Kessi says “You have to be really careful lvl 1 & 2, since he might all in. Long trades are not good for you, simply because he'll be running Conqueror. Trying to poke him out with Q's will be bad, since he just sustains them out. Trading near your tower at lvl 3 and all in 4+. Use mana for wave control.”
Impossible2Gank says “Very annoying to deal. His kit lets him do plenty in lane and it can be hard to keep up. If you box accordingly and itemize well you should be able to come out on top.”
King Turtle says “Despite the nerfs to his healing in lane he still has all the damage of normal Viego and is going to be a tough matchup. He can also use E to move around and evade your poke.”
Katasandra says “[1] When he uses his E, stay away from it as he can easily use it to get close enough to W
[2] Stay away from him when he charges his W. Possibly stand behind minions to avoid it.
[3] Can self R his R if in danger
[4] Get oblivion orb after chapter”
xMetix says “He wins early levels due to his strong long fights and fast conqueror stacking. After level 6 you can actually have enough burst to surprise him and get some control of the lane. Use grass a lot to disengage.”
Hienaa says “All easy for being melee champs, not on tier 2 because they can all build seekers, and viego is just broken so it’s a little tricky to play vs him sometimes.”
nZk01 says “(Mid) just play for trades and try to not get hit by his W and always let his conq stacks expire, then you can all in and just kill him, would recommend ignite.”
tozosi says “His W is very telegraphed. If you see him winding it up, throw your W out at him. This usually forces him to tank your passive since he can't dodge both parts of your W unless he manages to dash to the side. Be aware though that he is a very snowbally champ and a few kills can make him the strongest champ in the game.”
fanchessfan says “Viego is a melee bruiser with very little mobility. Currently, he builds Sunderer as his mythic so your tank shred is quite effective against him. If you kite him and take cleanse it should basically be a free win.”
TheWerefloof says “You really shouldn't run into him often now, but just poke him out of lane. You do not win within close range, so if you're going to all-in make sure he's around half or be a god at kiting.”
Little Planet says “He outsustains you completely, any poke you throw is wasted mana.
Push as much as you can and roam, that's your only avenue to victory.”
Joseph Evanss says “His q spam will just kinda heal you because Second Wind and D shield.
Try not to get stunned and don't fight him in his mist. As long as he doesn't get a good possession you win team fights. Go Second Wind, Revitalize + D Shield”
ahspaghetti says “you can't really trade or all in him, try to get your first item then you can have a better chance at killing him. he is only killable when your jgl/supp comes with cc, you can try to burn his flash then run him down by avoiding his w cc. if you feel like you are not playing so well against a viego, stop feeding him, rather you go 0/1 then try and fight and go 0/5”
Mpegial says “He will shred your HP if you get close to him, you are better off poking and getting what little CS you can, aside from that killing him level 6 should be possible.”
cauedg15 says “Viego is here representing the champions with the mechanics of becoming unhit, but what makes him more dangerous than the others is that, he can do it up to four times in a single team fight, as well he can regen his life when he transforms.”
mihaila says “Buy antiheal and after u destroy him. Take his ult only for a dash in plus. His q cd is pretty low so u can bait it and be efficient only in levels pre 6.”
Luciiid says “Diego trades really hard and has insane sustain. Look to abuse him at level 2. After he hits first item you lose the lane. Look to dodge his w then use your w q aa combo to trade. If he hits w he wins. If he misses w he loses.”
Noodles912 says “Burst him and get out. Play safe level 1 and 2 and all in at level 3. Rush orb if he rushes lifesteal. Shove and roam often to get a lead.”
PASS10NE says “Laning against Viego can be difficult, since he is a lot stronger than you early on. Try to snowball from roaming if you can't kill him.”
Wunsch3957 says “He's a little busted right now but you can block his only CC (his W) and you easily win auto Q battles because your Q is on a shorter cooldown and that you have a shield. But don't fight when he has E up and take short trades where he can't proc his Q passive to heal up.
Rush Executioners. Conq.”
Lot of Wind here says “A counter of Yasuo mid. He can outdamage you very hard, and his R makes him unstopabble, meaning you cannot use your R on him. Play safe and try to scale up.”
Wunsch3957 says “Another champion who stat checks you. Try not to get hit by his W and don't fight in his E. Just out scale him and survive lane phase. Fleet with either red/green tree and flash/ignite.”
The Jhin Cena says “From my limited experience fighting Viego, he doesn't seem very threatening. He is easy to hook and trade with, and he can't really prevent you from farming like most other match ups. Also unlike Sylas, he can't really exploit Pyke's kit very well on the off chance that he kills you.”
Coldsong says “Viego has really good dueling potential. Similar to Akali shroud, wait out his E since it gives him camoflague and attack speed. Also beware when he possesses someone, as it makes him untargetable.”
nZk01 says “(Mid) just play for trades and try to not get hit by his W and always let his conq stacks expire, then you can all in and just kill him, would recommend ignite.”
BigFatCat909 says “Haven't laned against him as Zed and hardly know what he does but i've been told the matchup should be considered comparable to Pyke. (Read Pyke)”
SkyBanana says “Broken. Do not die to him. He will abuse your Echo mechanic and enable his team to have a higher advantage if you think you won the fight but died to him.”
ezmod66 says “? Dudes trolling if he picks this mid lane.
Look for kill level 3. Contest him on cs, aa him and q e when you get a chance.
Matchup Difficulty: Easy
