I was thinking of changing up my roster for next season and was wondering if anyone had ANY tips on playing VIktor,

especially regarding skill level up and build.

max e>q>w and get upgrades in that same order(start q though). he's great against teams that have multiple adc, so a corki or lucian mid is basically free lane when you learn the matchup.

Against winning lanes you can start playing super aggro after your q upgrade (gives movement speed letting you run up to them and dodge skill shots easier).

take heal/barrier if you want a safer lane, but ghost is really nice later on to solo carry games by being able to run up to their squishy targets fast if you think you can get past laning without a combat summoner. Cleanse against heavy cc.

fully upgrade your hexcore for your first item, but you may need to buy some items to get through laning phase (the first upgrade especially is the most awkward to get). Try to stay in lane and not force roams that can get you behind, because how hard he scales with levels missing xp can put you in a bad spot even if you are even in cs still.

I like ryalis second item usually, especially if they have immobile squishies. lich bane if you find yourself able to get in range often for the auto attack (teams that have fighters will come to you, so its a good item for that as well if you don't need survivability, zhoynas or banshees if you do need it).

his best strength is pushing lanes and keeping your towers alive by ending the enemies push by clearing minions so quickly, you can build massive cs advantages which can allow you to turn games around even with 0 kills (i guarantee your enemies will be surprised if you pay attention to power spikes and they see you with no kills and they've been killing your teammates a lot)

My viktor experience is only limited to ARAM, but a very basic thing that took a few games to properly click is learning the range of his laser and aiming it properly. Sometimes if you want to keep your distance, you'll want to aim a few teemos back from your actual target and angling it towards them so you hit them with the tail end of the laser, rather than beginning the laser the target as one might be initially tempted to do.
