I actually like Viktor's lore a lot
I thought he was going to be a villain but turns out he is almost like the tragic hero. He works so hard to save as many lives as possible through technology, only to be interrupted again and again. What really caught me was how he swallowed the "big pill" with just letting someone else take credit for his creation of Blitzcrank. For him to just brush it off and look for other ways to save lives is what won me over.
This character is phenomenal in terms of selflessness, and kinda heroic, yet tragic.
I don't know who wrote his story but that person created a wonderful short story for him.
