I play Veigar with tanky items early game. Start with boots, rush a Chalice and KLP so I can farm safely with Q without running OOM and still getting gold from the GP10 component, then buy a Negatron and Sorc Shoes, turn KPL into DFG and Chalice into Grail, buy Rabadons, buy a Giant's belt, turn Negatron into Abyssal and Giant's belt into RCS. Might be wiser to get Zhyona's instead of Abyssal if the team is heavy AD oriented.

Some people seem to forget that Veigar's sole purpose on a teamfight is to stun as much enemy champions as possible and instagib the enemy AP carry before he can even land a spell. Since he scales harder on AP than any other carry you can easily sacrifice early game power for superior farming and tankyness on lane. Farming with Q is just too strong.
