Viego’s prioritization when leveling his skills is straightforward: R>Q>E>W

Together with your autoattacks, Q is your main source of damage and ensures that you have a fairly fast jungle clear that also keeps you healthy. You therefore skill it to level 1 and max it first. When using the Q, remember that you always want to hit as many monsters as possible with it in the jungle in order to clear efficiently. The Q is also an autoattack reset, so you can cancel your autoattack animation to deal damage faster. You can also cancel the Q with your Flash to finish off an opponent outside your normal range without them being able to react.

You skill your W to level 2 for the first time and from this point on you will also be able to gank. With the W, you have a gapcloser that can also stun your opponent if you hit the skillshot. Of course, this is easiest if your target has already received a CC. It is therefore important that you pay attention to which lanes offer the best gank setup and which opponents have already lost their Flash when you first start ganking. You can flash while channeling your W, which means you have a very strong single target engage with your flash.

At level 3, you take the E to be able to clear through the jungle even faster with the additional attack speed. You max this ability second to reduce the cooldown for later in the game and to be able to spend more time in camouflage.

You put a point into the ult every time you can, i.e. at level 6, 11 and 16. This ability gives you additional mobility with which you can even overcome some walls, lets you dodge or cancel enemy CC and finish off enemies with little life. You also get a reset every time you take over a dead enemy champion with your passive.

Viego’s passive is absolutely unique in the Summoner’s Rift. For 10 seconds, she lets you play enemy champions whose deaths you were involved in. You have every one of her abilities at your disposal except the ultimate, for which you have a reset of your own ultimate instead. When you use it, you transform back into Viego and have access to your own abilities again. In order to teamfight successfully with Viego, it is therefore important that you know which abilities your opponents have, how to use them and when it is worth taking on which opponent. However, if you can’t use your dead opponent’s abilities in a situation, it can sometimes still be useful to take him over. This is because you will also receive healing depending on the maximum life of the opponent you have taken over. You can then switch back directly with the Ult reset to continue fighting as Viego.
