VS TANKS BUILD:
§ buy
Tear of the Goddess
to start stacking but don't finish
Archangel's Staff
until you buy
Rod of Ages
. Once you have

rush

into
Archangel's Staff
and have both of their passives at max stack at roughly the same time.

LANE GUIDE
Refer to my match-ups page to ensure you are prepared for every mid laner.
Notes: you have the most ranged abilities next to Oriana. Use your range and damage to fully utilize ziggs and win your lane. Poke, poke, poke. Forcing your lane opponent to back means you can slowly poke down their tower. You don't have high mobility so remember to use
Satchel Charge
.you can throw it down to disengage a fight and force enemies back.
Early Game: you don't have anything special early on except range. Use auto attacks and
Bouncing Bomb
to poke opponents and clear waves. Use
Hexplosive Minefield
in front of your tower to kill incoming minions so opponents don't have a chance to poke you under tower or get damage onto it. Play safe, farm up and wait for ganks.
First Dragon: help your team by poking down enemies or preventing escapes by throwing down
Hexplosive Minefield
. You can use
Mega Inferno Bomb
then throw in
Satchel Charge
if the enemy starts dragon first. This will allow your team to burst them down since they've just taken a lot of damage and been thrown away from dragon.
Laning Phase: If you are struggling in lane don't try to roam. The enemy will read you like a book and cut you off or to will lose tower which means your team loses a Frontline safety point. You are the most important tower to defend. Farm under tower and call for ganks.
Mid Game: depending on how your early game went you might have a few kills or assists. If you are confident in your lane then buy
Ionian Boots of Lucidity
and
Teleport Enchant
to roam and help your allies lanes. You should be dealing decent damage by now. Remember to keep your distance and don't get caught out of position.
Late Game: you've got 3 or 4 items now. You are dealing loads of damage and should be able to burst down enemies with your teammates in a few seconds. Keep your distance. Poke and support you teammates with high damage output. You're a support mage for reason.
