Ziggs
Champions that beat Ziggs
- Akalimid
Akali's Shuriken Flip E dashes directly to a marked target, bypassing Hexplosive Minefield E slow ring. Twilight Shroud W gives invisibility to escape Q poke, and Perfect Execution R chains two dashes onto Ziggs before Satchel Charge W cooldown resets.
- Fizzmid
Fizz's Playful / Trickster E makes him untargetable mid-flight, dodging Bouncing Bomb Q and Mega Inferno Bomb R reflexively. Urchin Strike Q closes the remaining distance, and Chum the Waters R lands a guaranteed shark engage on Ziggs during the no-dash window.
- Kai'Sabot
Kai'Sa chains dashes inside Ziggs' Bouncing Bomb Q range — Supercharge E plus Killer Instinct R long dash plus stealth let her reach Ziggs through the Hexplosive Minefield E slow ring. Second Skin passive procs Icathian Rain Q burst on full evolved kit.
- Lucianbot
Lucian chains dashes inside Ziggs' Bouncing Bomb Q range — Relentless Pursuit E plus Lightslinger passive double-tap auto procs let him weave dashes between Q bounces. Piercing Light Q line poke chunks Ziggs through Satchel Charge W cooldown windows.
- Master Yijungle
Alpha Strike (Q) crosses 600 units and goes untargetable mid-dash, dodging Bouncing Bomb (Q) and Hexplosive Minefield (E) detonations. Ziggs has no escape once Highlander (R) commits, and Satchel Charge (W) knock-back is dodgeable on Yi's dash frames.
- Pykesupport
Pyke's Bone Skewer Q hook plus Death From Below R executes targets below an HP threshold — exactly the HP Ziggs sits at after a trade. Phantom Undertow E blink chains the punish, and Gift of the Drowned Ones passive heals Pyke in stealth.
- Samirabot
Samira's Blade Whirl W destroys the Bouncing Bomb Q projectile entirely while spinning. Wild Rush E dashes through any enemy including minions, resetting on kill to chain across the wave onto Ziggs, and Inferno Trigger R deletes him in seconds.
- Syndramid
Ziggs uses Satchel Charge for both damage and self-knockback escape, but it goes on cooldown after one use. Syndra E stuns him the moment his W is down, the sphere knockback range exceeds his Bouncing Bomb counter-poke,
- Taliyahmid
Ziggs's Bouncing Bomb Q is single-target poke with travel time, and Satchel Charge W self-knockback is his only escape on a long cooldown. Threaded Volley Q out-shoves his waveclear, Seismic Shove W lands during W downtime,
- Tristanabot
Tristana's Rocket Jump W is a 900-range dash that resets on takedown, letting her chain dashes onto Ziggs through Hexplosive Minefield E slow ring. Buster Shot R knock-back is too short to reposition Ziggs out of his Explosive Charge E ticks back on her.
- Yasuomid
Yasuo's Wind Wall W blocks Ziggs' Bouncing Bomb Q projectile entirely and even Mega Inferno Bomb R fragments if placed right. Sweeping Blade E dashes through Hexplosive Minefield E slow ring to close the gap. The lane is lost the moment Yasuo has W up.
- Yonemid
Yone's Wind Wall on his kit blocks Bouncing Bomb Q projectile entirely. Soul Unbound E spirit form dashes through Hexplosive Minefield E slow ring while body stays untargetable, and Fate Sealed R yanks Ziggs out of his backline position into the team.
- Zedmid
Zed's Living Shadow W swap closes half the lane in a single button, crossing Ziggs' Bouncing Bomb Q range before he can land more than one poke. Death Mark R untargetable dash lands on Ziggs during Satchel Charge W cooldown, and Razor Shuriken Q chunks through.
- Zileanmid
Time Warp W slow plus a Time Bomb Q under his feet pins Ziggs in place. Satchel Charge W self-knockback is short and telegraphed — Zilean predicts the displacement and re-aims the second Q. A clean Q + W + Q chain stuns Ziggs before Mega Inferno Bomb R goes off.
- Zoemid
Zoe's Paddle Star! Q redirects mid-flight from fog of war, poking past Bouncing Bomb Q without showing on minimap. Ziggs's slow-arc Q lets Zoe sidestep with Portal Jump R, and Satchel Charge W self-knockback is dodged by the same blink during the trade.
Champions Ziggs beats
- Aniviamid
Anivia must stand still to cast Flash Frost Q line stun and Glacial Storm R zone damage. Ziggs' Bouncing Bomb Q outranges her cast range and Hexplosive Minefield E zones the area she needs to occupy to deal Frostbite E follow-up damage.
- Anniemid
Annie's Disintegrate Q is 625 range and her main damage tools are point-and-click melee. Ziggs' Bouncing Bomb Q is 850-1100 with bounces and his Satchel Charge W self-knockback resets the gap whenever Annie tries to walk up for Pyromania stun setup.
- Blitzcranksupport
Blitzcrank's Rocket Grab Q is a slow-projectile hook with a long cast time. Ziggs' Satchel Charge W self-knockback knocks him backward out of the hook landing zone — even if the hook connects. Hexplosive Minefield E zones the Power Fist E follow-up engage.
- Caitlynbot
Caitlyn's 90 Caliber Net E is her only dash and goes backward — not a real escape. Ziggs' Bouncing Bomb Q on the long bounce reaches 1100 range past Caitlyn's auto-attack range, and Short Fuse passive auto-procs at the same distance for empowered chip damage.
- Karthusjungle
Karthus must stand still to cast Lay Waste Q single-target rings on minions. Ziggs' Bouncing Bomb Q outranges his approach window, and Satchel Charge W self-knockback escapes Wall of Pain W slow before Karthus closes for the all-in.
- LeBlancmid
Bouncing Bomb (Q) and Hexplosive Minefield (E) shove LeBlanc out of XP range from outside Sigil of Malice (Q) reach. Satchel Charge (W) knockback throws her out of Distortion (W) recast position, and Mega Inferno Bomb (R) executes during low-HP escape attempts.
- Leonasupport
Leona's Zenith Blade E is an 875-range dash, the longest engage tool in her kit. Ziggs' Hexplosive Minefield E drops a slowing ring between Ziggs and Leona that delays the engage by a full second, giving Satchel Charge W time to reposition out of Solar Flare R.
- Lockemid
Locke is melee (125 range). Xerath's Arcanopulse (Q) and Eye of Destruction (W) chunk him from 1400+ range before Ashen Pursuit (E) can reach, and they keep zoning the exact space he needs to dash through to commit.
- Malzaharmid
Bouncing Bomb (Q) out-pokes from outside Call of the Void (Q) range and Hexplosive Minefield (E) zones Malzahar's static cast position. Satchel Charge (W) knock-back cancels Nether Grasp (R) channel and Mega Inferno Bomb (R) global pressures recall.
- Nautilussupport
Nautilus's Dredge Line Q is a slow-projectile hook with a long cast time. Ziggs' Satchel Charge W self-knockback knocks him backward out of the hook landing zone — even if the hook connects. Hexplosive Minefield E zones the Riptide E follow-up wave damage.
- Sennasupport
Senna has no dash at all and her Curse of the Black Mist E only camouflages her at melee range to an ally. Ziggs' Bouncing Bomb Q on the long bounce reaches 1100 range past Senna's stack-farming range, and Short Fuse passive auto-procs at the same distance.
- Veigarmid
Veigar must stand still to cast Dark Matter W delayed AOE and Baleful Strike Q stack farming. Ziggs' Bouncing Bomb Q outranges his approach and Satchel Charge W self-knockback escapes any Event Horizon E cage attempt before it lands.
- Viktormid
Viktor must stand still to channel Hextech Ray E laser line and Arcane Storm R AOE. Ziggs' Bouncing Bomb Q outranges Siphon Power Q charged poke, and Hexplosive Minefield E zones his Gravity Field W stun setup before it triggers.
- Zeribot
Bouncing Bomb Q outranges Zeri's Burst Fire Q by 300+ units and pokes her below 50% HP each wave. Hexplosive Minefield E zones the wall-vault landing point of Spark Surge E, and Mega Inferno Bomb R global finishes her cross-map.
