Viktor Jungle/Support?

Hey there! Master Fledgling here!

Well, it was only a matter of time until I broke the meta even harder. Or at least thought about it. While I don't think anything can ever replace Jungle Karthus now after a 13/8/20 game with him, my heart is infinite for unusual junglers and whacky supports. Karthus can't really support, but Viktor might be able to do BOTH.

The reasons I thought of this is primarily Viktor's Q and ... passive? I might just call it Viktor's item. Anyways, his Q gives him an empowered auto attack and a shield that scales off of AP (And AD, oddly enough -- I'd take him ADCing if I wasn't a trash ADC!) and his item gives him the early power that the new jungle appreciates. After your first round in the jungle, just about everyone can jungle.

Even Zilean.

(Bonus points if you can tell me what Zilean's song is!)

I digress. Viktor's Q and his item also let him be a good poke support (in my head) as he does much of what Teemos and Zileans do with their Q's, his lack of range and blind made up for by the speed buff his gets and shield. Also, he has an AOE stun -- that's pretty sweet. I believe (correct me if I am wrong) his Q's empowered auto attack hits towers and can critical hit, making my favorite but rare spell thief and avarice blade combo work on him.

Madness.

Oh yeah, Viktor can fit any position. I play all 5 roles and just scream "VIKTOR!" in the pre-game lobby, filling up wherever I need to go.

Get a manamune on adc Viktor (obvs) and you'll rock the lane, hard.

Jungle Viktor's a little more tricky. I've been trying attack speed Viktor lately, but it more or less looks like there's little room for gimmicky awesomeness unless you wanna afk farm until 15 minutes. ;p Better to just build AP.

That won't deter me, though.

To clarifiy: The shield doesn't scale of AD, and the modified auto attack scales only of AD in so far as it is a modified auto attack.

An yes it will apply critical magic damage and always magical spellblade.

He has CC, so he should work in Botlane.

He is ranged, has a shield, AoE Slow and AoE Damage. He should not have problems with clear.
