Considering that losing 5 Movement Speed reduced the win-rates of Elise and Lux rather significantly, you greatly underestimate how valuable it is (especially for a roaming champion).

Yeah, I saw that post already. The difference is Lux and Elise are mostly mages, not divers. Mages don't really give a damn about buying things that give them movement stats (intentionally). Vi got that aggressive cc-slow-pummel-down thing going on.

Luden's Echo is a core items on Lux.

Runic Echoes is a core item on Elise.

(intentionally).

They don't give a damn about that speed. Melee champs buy those speed items for a reason, and Melee champs are most likely able to catch up to Lux and Elise if they don't land their cancer-cc on them.

and then riot changes the Luden's Echo so it has mana instead of movement speed solely because lux mains begged for it

Thats a shitty build. Should go Warrior Triforce Tank...

Can you post your stats using that Vi build? It doesn't look very good...

Anyways Vi was never even really "broken" no one was complaining about her before CoTC and the new jungle made her flavor of the month.

Both of which have been nerfed, and now Riot is aiming to slow her down with the attack speed and movement speed nerfs since her clear is so good. I'm sure players who only abuse her for elo will stop and she will no longer be as popular as she is right now.
