Viktor's waveclear needs to be nerfed

This lane is almost less interactive than old AP Janna. Presses E and shoves me to turret all laning phase. Very fun to play against.

Yes. It is fun. For me. Viktor .

In all seriousness. It's one of Viktor's niches. He's the guy you pick when you don't want their siege team to breach your gates without eating tower shots.

Besides, Vik have to sink some gold into an upgrade and AP before he can clear waves like you are suggesting.

He has to back one time before he can infinitely waveclear. It's fine if he is good at preventing sieges, but having stupidly good waveclear that early in the game just isn't fun to play against.

Well considering he has around 500-700 Mana by the time he can upgrade and since he maxes E first the mana cost is pretty hefty.

He can't spam it more than 4-6 times without going OOM. No to mention he guzzles mana when he trades, so if you force trades with him a lot and jump to minions to avoid his grav field you can make him run out of mana if all he wants to do is clear waves.

Plus you have one major advantage that the Viktor player doesn't.

His champ isn't hot.
