Quick Answer for Patch 26.20

  1. Big Brain

    Gold

    At the start of each round, gain 3 Shield for every 1 Ability Power.

    Why on Veigar

    Phenomenal Evil Power (passive) permanently stacks your Ability Power, so the shield you get each round keeps growing as the game goes on.

  2. Eureka

    Prismatic

    Gain Ability Haste equal to 20% Ability Power.

    Why on Veigar

    Phenomenal Evil Power (passive) keeps raising your Ability Power, which now also raises your Ability Haste, so Dark Matter (W) and Primordial Burst (R) come back faster.

  3. Jeweled Gauntlet

    Prismatic

    Your Abilities can Critically Strike. Gain Crit Chance.

    Why on Veigar

    Primordial Burst (R) already deals massive damage to low targets, and a crit on it can delete an enemy outright from much higher health.
