Can Viktor's nerfs be looked at again?

V6.15

    Now only counts as "returning" (moves at maximum speed regardless of distance) if Viktor targets himself.

V6.16

    Maximum speed reduced to 400 from 450.
    Minimum speed increased to 200 from 170.
    Starts slowing down from maximum speed once it gets 300 units away, down from 350.
    Reaches minimum speed once it is 900 units away from Viktor, down from 950.
    Removed: No longer moves at maximum speed when Viktor targets himself.

These changes were made purely because Rylai was so strong that there was no way to run away from his storm. Now that Rylai is gutted and no longer in Viktor's core build, I think it would be fair to reconsider reverting these nerfs.

After all he is on the weaker side with measly 46% winrate.

I'd prefer his R to tick faster so he loses burst and gets more teamfight damage + backloaded damage.

46% is low yes except he isn't AT 46%...

he is at 48% which is slightly low but perfectly fine.

considering he has 1 button wave clear mid game

something even champ who are SUPPOSED to be "waveclear" champs dont get

Viktor is actually in a really good state right now. There is a reason is picked often in pro play.

They took 5 patches to "realize" that his ult was bugged and would disappear when he would die (they only "noticed" it when it happened in competitive on stream), you think they want see him being remotely good or not clunky?
