Vi the Piltover Enforcer
Raised on the mean streets of Zaun, Vi is a hotheaded, impulsive, and fearsome woman with very little respect for authority. She has always been a shrewd survivor, both from her youthful troublemaking topside and an unfairly long stint in Stillwater Hold. Now working with the Piltover Enforcers to keep the peace instead of breaking it, she wields mighty hextech gauntlets that can punch through walls—and criminals—with equal ease.

Vi demonstrates unique performance characteristics, with win rates showing a 6.7% decrease from Iron to Diamond tiers. This pattern suggests that Vi may be more accessible for newer players while facing increased difficulty against higher-skilled opponents. In Iron tier, Vi achieves a 50.0% win rate, which gradually declines to 43.3% in Diamond. This trend often indicates that Vi's strengths can be more effectively countered by experienced players who understand the champion's weaknesses and trading patterns. The declining performance (Iron (50.0%), Bronze (49.7%), Silver (50.4%), Gold (49.2%), Platinum (45.7%)) suggests that while Vi can be effective in lower ranks where opponents may not exploit vulnerabilities, higher-tier players are better equipped to neutralize Vi's advantages. However, this doesn't mean Vi is unviable at higher ranks - rather, it requires more sophisticated strategies, better macro play, and careful matchup selection. Players at higher elos should focus on understanding when to pick Vi, how to play around counters, and maximizing value in favorable matchups. Success with Vi at higher levels demands strong game sense, positioning, and the ability to adapt playstyle based on team compositions and enemy picks.
