Laning Against Viego

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.

Strategy VS Viego

In team fights, as soon as Viego runs in, try to CC him and burst him down first. He is pretty vulnerable to CC and if you can kill him before he gets his combo off, the enemy will lose out on a lot of damage.

Keep track of who he can change into at the start and during a fight. Try to play accordingly to all of his potential new abilities.

Do not group too closely in team fights if he has stolen a strong champion’s abilities.

Viego Power Spikes

Viego’s skirmishing power in the eraly game is quite high. Keep this in mind when trying to 1v1 him as he is pretty good early on.

Viego’s level 6 power spike is very good. He will often go for insanely aggressive plays with his Ultimate Heartbreaker R.

If he takes over the body of a fed enemy champion, he will be extremely difficult to deal with. However, if he takes over a weak champion, he may not be that big of a threat.
