Viktor getting Syndra'd

Galewings··7 votes·981 views

Minus the awful hitboxes

Yes, I can agree that Viktor's damage was a bit too much. But I think making his Hexcore this bad is hurting Viktor much more than just nerfing his damages over all.

You're making his early and mid game much, much weaker just so he can have 12 more ap at level 18 on his 3rd hexcore.

Meanwhile Azir still gets to be a lane bully early game, a respectable mid game champ but a hypercarry late game with his overloaded kit with everything you can dream of as a mage tacked on it.

You call that getting Syndra'd?

okay but Viktor was built to be a late game champion

riot feels he was gaining that power too soon so they tried to retool him to be weaker earlier on. Syndra is an early game champion who falls off late; they reduced her early game power, and now she has no powerful point.

If only we could do to other champs what's being done to Viktor to be "late game only" cough_vayne_cough

Btw syndra is a hyper carry what I hear the analyst say. Vayne still has a weak early game I don't care what you say of how it is getting better.

I watch almost every game in NA/EU/LPL and I haven't heard any analysts say Syndra is a hyper carry. If you were watching LCK and MonteChristo said it that might have been a joke, he is sarcastic sometimes.

Syndra can still bully a lane in the late laning phase sometimes, but is missing something in the late game; probably just raw damage output. Power of Evil played her twice this split I think.

Last time I checked he is actually buffed late game number-wise.

Gotta make sure Ahri is the dominant mid you know. Can't have anyone else both popular and good at winning games.

Syndra lost 20 damage on rank 1 Q. Viktor seems to have got away fine at least compared to that.

As a Viktor main I really can't imagine what will happen to my future Viktor games, but now that I recalled, Azir is never nerfed before.. . . . . .

He was dealing 1/3 of your health at level 4.

Viktor has zero risk, but so much reward. I'ts only fair that they're nerfing him.

Yes azir should be nerfed too.

I'll say it til it changes. There is no reason for Azirs Q to deal damage.
