I keep seeing Viktors taking Fleet footwork and going for a full tank build only non tank item being their hex core. Why is this happening and pleas make it stop.

EDIT: It appears all this post has done is just raise awareness of this off meta viktor build. Im not telling people not to play him but please think of the sanctity of mid lane and play him top lane. play him vs the Teemo's and akali's currently abusing traditional top laners. have fun.

If it's effective, people will keep on doing it.

As for "make it stop," I'm not sure what answer you're looking for.

How does tank viktor work?

I didn't know this was a thing, so I looked it up. And honestly, it's interesting.

Viktor is considered a Battle Mage, so building some tank items is actually not that weird on him. Cassiopeia and Ryze build some as well.
Having a mage using Fleet Footwork as his meta keystone is interesting. It has an AP ratio, but we don't see it used alot on AP champions.
Same goes for Presence of Mind, it is used rarely and having another user is good for me.

I would like to see how this plays out in the future. Maybe I will try some games with that setup as well on him, didn't play Viktor for a while and this seems like a way to revive him from the dead.
