So... Isn't Vi a bit too strong?

So, I've just faced Vi a lot in S7 and even after the CoC nerfs, she seems to be a bit too strong.

Once she gets Triforce, she can just go full tank and get a 600+ HP shield from both her passive and CoC, while being impossible to CC because she pressed R. Currently she works like a "I delete one of your carries and you can't do anything about it" machine, and all you can do is accepting your death if she decides that you'll be her ult's target. Yes, the same can be said of Hecarim, but at least his ult is a "skillshot" and you can flash away from it.

Any planned nerfs?

Well actually I think that she's one of the few junglers that can deal with the jungle changes and can take advantage of them. She has a good clear, great ganks from early levels and a lot of damage to become a pain to deal with later in the game.

I agree it could be CoC's fault though, Vi could be the new Sejuani during Cinderhulk meta just because she synergises too well with that keystone.

Vi has been an abuser of almost everything new since the day that she existed. Shes always a strong solo queue jungler, but that is just it. She needs triforce to survive, just like hecarim. The biggest counter to Vi is failed early ganks. If she doesnt get rolling then it is too far in the game for her triforce to matter as much. Just try to play safer, dont let her kill you. You cant do shit about your teammates, but hey do your best

This. She can simply start the botlane clown fiesta and get fed that way.

Also, once she's 6 and she has some HP from items, she can just dive you with your opponent no matter what and kill you without even getting close to death. Because, you know, 400Hp shield. :^)
