Ziggs Mid performs best with a build featuring Luden's Companion, Sorcerer's Shoes, Liandry's Torment, Rabadon's Deathcap, and Void Staff. The most effective rune setup for Ziggs Mid includes Arcane Comet, Manaflow Band, Transcendence, and Scorch in the primary tree, paired with Coup de Grace and Presence of Mind in the secondary tree.
Use your empowered auto-attacks on enemy champions when possible to deal extra damage during the laning phase. Before a team fight occurs, try to poke the enemy down as much as possible with your Q. Delay a team fight for as long as possible while you dish out Q damage. Towers can be destroyed when they’re at 25% health with your W. Avoid roaming and focus on pushing to take early Towers.
