Viktor Toplane....

So I was wondering what all the hyoe was about so I decided to play toplane against viktor right...

And now I'm questioning why this disgusting champion isn't nerfed to the ground for toplane...

I was playing against a d4 and Im plat 5 so I could see first hand what a high level viktor playstyle is like (I was playing garen)

Yeah I instantly regretted every second of it.... So let's get the rundown:

• He gets a shield that blocks entire turret shots.

• He gets an empored auto attack after he uses an ability

• After augment he gets a movement speed buff

• He gets to go tanky while also doing mage damage

• He gets an 800 range slow/stun

• He builds mostly armor but also does damage because of shen proc and is able to reduce even more turretshots

• His empowered auto procs shen/frozen gantlet

• And he gets near unavoidable lazer beam

• He gets an ult that does burst damage

• Add that with the klepto proc so he gets free gold,health potions, and damage.

Add all that together and you get yet another cancer toplane pick...

I'm talking he just harrassed me under tower with that stupid Q that blocks an entire turret shot with like a 3 second cd meaning he can just spam it (Which he did) while I desperately try to just farm. Now this is where you can say that my garen pick is very weak against him and I don't disagree, but I was thinking how other toplane champions would fair against this.

Like all champions with mobility are basically fucked after first back once he gets his movement speed augment and shield that blocks every attempt at damage. Like everytime I'd go to attack he'd just turn on that free shield and go to town

What about champs with dashes? He has his 800 range slow/stun field that negates any committed engage.

Want to jump on him to close the gap as jax? That's fine, he'll just press his q and drop his w and now you basically did no damage to him.

Renekton? Same thing.

Kled? Same thing

Like I know some champs to good against him (Riven, Panth, Mundo) But even then, I checked champion.gg and the most they do is go even with him.

So basically he stomps on tanks, juggernauts, bruisers (sometimes), and fighters (Sometimes)

I know it's still new, but can Riot please nerf viktor top? He was suppose to be midlane. That's why he has all these abilities because it helps him survive mid, but now he's toplane and yet another cancer pick that toplaners have to deal with because they got gutted as a midlaner.

I'm not even asking for major ones. Maybe nerf his shield that blocks turret shots? Nerf his empowered auto? Maybe? His movement speed so he isn't outkiting everyone?

Like what do you expect any toplaner to do early on when he can just spam q + auto you under tower and take no damage either because he has 600 range, or because his shield blocks entire turret shots early on

And people wonder why toplane is so cancer. Champions that aren't suppose to be there, get dumped whenever they get nerfed out of their own lane and it's honestly annoying.

TL;DR Viktor is so unhealthy for toplane.
