I agree. Also why nerf 
They explained exactly the reason why they nerfed viktor in the patch notes

Bad excuse for Riot.
How is it an excuse when it's actually a legitimate reason?
Want to know what an excuse is? Something that doesn't make sense. Saying Viktor's amazing single spell waveclear should be nerfed slightly so he isn't so punishing to play against is not an excuse

Lux has amazing waveclear (20 second ult), Anivia has amazing waveclear but problem is Viktor's waveclear.
Also topic is Gp's nerf.
This thread has nothing to do with Lux or Anivia (besides the fact the Anivia is built around waveclear, costs a bunch of mana to use, has to stay in the area to keep it channeled, and is her ult!!)
Stop sidetracking when you know you don't have a point

Nice topic change.But not good.
You haven't your argument.Sadly.
Riot's argument is your excuse.
How did I change the topic? I reminded you to not change the topic (and because I was feeling generous, answered one of your off topic questions anyway).
As I stated before, it's not an excuse; you just don't like it. Viktor had amazing waveclear on a single spell with not much AP on a low cooldown and low mana cost, and is not even optimized for wavclear like someone like Anivia is; this is not the most healthy aspect a game could have. So they minimally nerfed the damage to his laser.
And please, could you please learn how to type in English better? I know you're from another country, but if you are going to be on the English speaking boards of an English speaking country, you need to put in the effort to use proper grammar.

Change of topic.
Riot's argument is my arguement (not excuse) because it's right. Is it an excuse because I use scientists's reasons to explain why the earth orbits the sun? Or do I need to come up with my own explanation?
Riot in this case is right about the Viktor nerfs, and I agree with their reasoning. I don't need to have a different one just because it was the one they used

Because it isn't true.Until 9 lvl Viktor hasn't good waveclear.
If you aren't getting the first hex core until level 9, then simply put you can't judge anything related to Viktor balance. It's costs 1000 gold. I can get that easily before level 9

You're drunk? 2 times q skill, 1 time w, 1 time ult and 5 times e skill.Lvl 9.Until lvl 9 Viktor hasn't waveclear.Also second hex core 2000 gold, first main item rylai 3200 gold.Total 5200 gold=2 items.
Anivia has good waveclear with 2 items.
Lux has good waveclear with 2 items.
Ori, Ahri, Xerath etc.
You clearly don't know how to build Viktor. At all.
You upgrade E first. You take E first. You max E first. You get the first hex core as your first item.
You don't need to have E maxed in order for it to wavclear: it can be done with just the base AP from runes, masteries, Dorans, and the first hex core upgrade.

9 lvl? Nine lvl. Forced q skill 2 times.You learn this game.Also ult is necessary.
Dorans? You kidding me?

I've read some of your responses to post... I like you.
They gave a good reason, but I agree in one thing,
will need buffs later on.
Also my mini spam:
can you see my custom item? I've made an icon for it! http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/skin-champion-concepts/buOIBEzA-the-phoenixs-talon-icon-made-by-me-3

Becauses hes still p/b and deals too much damage and too much map pressure after 50 nerfs in a row
I kinda agree that GP (and to a lesser extent viktor)'s nerfs were a bit unwarrented, will focus on GP to avoid the toxicity of this post. GP (like nasus) has been a farm-heavy character with pretty big risk (unless you get decent gank pressure you're gonna often lose tower no matter who you face) and pretty high reward (4-5 items deep, he can basically 2-shot squishies with barrels). While he did have his giant late-game pros, his sheer level of difficulty combined with the fact he's bad until said power spikes made him pretty balanced. Why riot would choose to nerf him (alongside viktor of all things) confuses the hell out of me, and is looking more like a "we don't want to see them as much in the LCS" reason and less about a "balancing the game to make it better" reason.
I mean Gangplank has basically been a top pick ever since he's been reworked, in particular been pick/ban in top-level play.

And how is that a reason to nerf a champion?
If this is the reason then
should be completely gutted.
It's one thing to be a top pick (which Lee Sin definitely has been), it's another thing to be overpowered (which is what Gangplank has been).
Lee Sin has been a really strong pick in solo queue for quite a while, but sometimes falls in/out in competitive play, such as when Cinderhulk was released (where Lee Sin completely left the competitive metagame in favor of tanks, most prominently Sejuani, Gragas, Rek'Sai, and Nunu to a lesser extent). Gangplank, on the other hand, was pick/ban during worlds (mostly banned), and hasn't really fallen in power to really change that.
Also change my original post to say rework instead of release.
he has a huge impact on the game whether he feeds or not the AOE can easily kill an ADC or squishy mid
