How to play against Viego

Lane and teamfight rules that hold regardless of your pick.

In lane and in teamfights

1. Track his early item reset before contesting river. If he has not based and you have tempo, collapse before he can farm back into the map.
2. Hold key CC until after he uses R or commits forward. Casting too early lets him dodge the punish and escape.
3. Deny low-health resets in skirmishes by peeling backward together. One possession can turn a lost fight into a wipe.
4. Finish targets cleanly or disengage before he reaches them. Do not leave half-health bodies for his passive to reset the fight.
5. Save burst and CC for his first possession exit. Punishing that moment stops the chain before it reaches your carries.

Where Viego is weak

Exploit these in draft and in lane.

• Viego's resets require nearby dying enemies, so clean disengage denies the possession chain that makes fights snowball.
• Viego has to enter melee to finish targets, making hard CC and focus fire punish his first commit.
