Who Wins
- Pre-6, you and Veigar win the 2v2 — your E into wall removes Ezreal's entire kit identity, and your W denies his E escape entirely, making him a stationary target for Veigar's cage.
- Post-6, you continue to win: your R can interrupt Karthus's R channel and send Ezreal airborne, and Veigar's R finishes anyone you've poked down.
Synergy & Trading
- Your best trading pattern is to walk up with your passive shield absorbing Ezreal's Q poke, then land E to pin him into a wall, immediately followed by Veigar's E cage — this two-step combo guarantees a kill or forces Flash every time.
Wave Control/Roaming
- You should roam post-6 when Karthus is low or when your bot lane has shoved the wave — your R is a powerful engage tool in mid lane and river fights, and leaving Veigar alone to stack safely is fine since he doesn't need you to farm.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never use your W reactively to block Ezreal's Q — save it to deny his E escape during your engage combo; using W early means he simply E's away after your E pin and the kill opportunity is lost.
