How to counter Vel'Koz

Vel'Koz is an artillery mage that punishes from afar with his skillshots and true damage, but he is immobile and squishy with no escape tool. He struggles against champions that close the gap and blow him up, out-range him in the poke war, or tank his damage while walking him down.

  • Taric — He tanks his poke and punishes the squishy Vel'Koz by engaging with his stun and his ultimate's invulnerability.
  • Poppy — Tanky and with the mobility to close in, she dives the immobile Vel'Koz and bursts him before he can reposition.
