For those who don't know, sadly the only Viktor VO available right now is the robotic VO:

What are the plans for the future regarding getting Viktor a flexibly usable VO that can be processed to make non-robotic skins? Should this be a priority so that future Viktor skins don't have this problem? If an unprocessed VO is made in the future, will the Death Sworn skin be able to receive a non-robotic voice?

I get that the Death Sworn skin won't have a non-robotic VO right now because it just isn't available, but the more I watch the videos the more disappointing and sad I am because the voice just doesn't fit the Death Sworn theme at all. And it is such a good skin otherwise! The eerie bluish green particles, the runes in the W. The visuals of his model are just gorgeous with the eyeball over his shoulder. But the voice is just so off that it just leaves all this beautiful work feeling flat. The voice takes me out of this skin and makes me just think about playing Creator Viktor.

Hey Nefas -

We don't have plans to re-record VO for Viktor for his Death Sworn skin. I can't speak for the future, to be honest with you. I don't know what Viktor would have in store for him down the road. If I had to guess, I would say he would end up with whatever the new VO was that came with his VGU, and wouldn't be processed - that's only basing it off how updates have gone in the past, iirc.

Pretty sure it's kind of like Syndra, they just don't have an unprocessed voice for the champion. They'd have to have the actor available and record all of that over again.

No worries, just make new VO for Viktor with voice effects in mind. He among numerous champs that only got model updates or something smaller like texture updates are due for a Voice over update. Specially since Viktor has a in-depth background that is not reflect that much in his lines. Would be great if he had something with Jayce and Blitzcrank in his quotes.

A Legendary skin would be a great excuse to voice his classic lines as well, just how Elementalist Lux paved the way for classic Lux to get new VO.
