BrunkageManden says “Like other mages he is somewhat mobile. You can block everything with windwall except his R. His W can save him from early all ins where, if placed right sends Yasuo back. Should be an easy lane to win”

rowzkit says “He outranges you (and every other ADC) by a lot, so fighting is often not possible. Try your best to avoid his Q's as they're the main source of his damage. Avoid trading unless it's an all in, as there is close to no chance you'll be able to outtrade him (if you can even reach him in the first place), and ensure that you have your E or Flash to disengage.”

Vapora Dark says “Ziggs plays entirely through his spammable Q with far too much range for you to fight back, on top of having insane zone control from his E and insane disengage in his W. There is little chance of winning this lane if you don't have a hook support such as Blitzcrank.”

mcdnldsmngrxdd says “another artillery mage, 1 of draven's hardest matchups, sit back and try your best to live laning, look for all-ins only. Make sure his blast-charge (knock-up) is down before you decide whether you want to flash for him or not. If he's low enough to 1 auto go for it, if not you're better off just hoping he walks back in and makes the same mistake. Vamp scepter early into this is a must if you have 0 lane agency, if you can't find an opening just bite the bullet and buy it, it'll save you a headache.”

slendoooo says “Ziggs is the hardest Mage matchup for Draven on bot, besides his insane scaling and pushing capability he's often really annoying and can easily win short trades vs you by using his Q, W and Passive Damage. He also can use his E to de-engage on you and make you miss axes. To counter all this always look for a fake engage first so he ends up wasting his E, then follow up with your real engage to kill him. A video example of Ziggs-Draven Matchup: (To be made)”

DixonTheGuideMaker says “Beware of roaming when Ziggs in lane as he has good wave clear and can easily take your tower while you’re gone. Kill him and then roam when he’s off the map. Ziggs’ main poke tool in lane is his Bouncing Bomb(Q). This skill has a short cooldown and does a decent amount of AOE damage. Do not stand in the minion wave to avoid taking free damage. Zigg’s will be looking to constantly poke and push the minion wave so he can get an early tower with his Satchel Charge(W). Try to match his wave clear so he is unable to push you into Tower and take it easily.”

IKeepItTaco says “◉ Ziggs would be the #1 most popular botlane mage in the meta and his only goal is to poke and bully you out of lane so he can take all of your towers and win the game ◉ He will try to poke you with [[Bouncing Bomb]] when you walk near the minion wave so be sure to have some space so it becomes very hard for him to hit you. If you hug a minion then he’ll just hit the minion and the splash damage will hit you so keep that in mind. ◉ His setup against you since you’re immobile will be [[Satchel Charge]] into [[Hexplosive Minefield]]. He can knock you up in the air for a bit and chooses from which angle this will happen so keep that in mind since [[Ziggs]] players love to use [[Satchel Charge]] to push you back into his support and kill you! ◉ Win condition: Do your best to not get poked early. You want to farm up till you can get [[Noonquiver]] in your first recall since after that you’ll have enough damage to permanently push the waves back into [[Ziggs]] and keep him away from taking your tower!!!! ”

Coldsong says “Similar to Syndra, Ziggs is super annoying to face as Samira. He outranges you by far with his Q poke and his disengage with his W is amazing. His Satchel Toss and passive allow him to push towers very quickly, and his ultimate can easily finish you off. I would get a lot of early magic resist and try to W his W since the knockback can be annoying.”
