Viktor the Herald of the Arcane

The fully biomechanical evolution of his former self, Viktor has embraced his Glorious Evolution and become something of a messiah to his followers. He sacrificed his own humanity under the logic that eliminating emotion would thereby eliminate suffering—and now seeks to bring the revelation of the hexcore to the rest of the world, even if they're incapable of understanding the benefit. After all, to this master of the arcane, violence is merely a variable necessary to balance the ultimate equation.

MetaBot Tips

  • Viktor has a low base movespeed compared to many other champions. Play back towards your tower in lane, and consider early game boots when fighting skillshot-based laners.
  • Viktor has more base armor than most champions, which makes them excellent in the early game against attack damage type enemies.
  • Viktor has more base attack damage than most champions, so they should be trading autos aggressively in lane.

Gameplay Tips

Playing Viktor

  • Hextech Ray is a powerful poke and a strong area of denial tool. Use it in combination with Gravity Field to control your enemy's position.
  • Make sure you choose the right augment at the right time.

Playing Against Viktor

  • Be careful about how close you let Viktor get to you. Viktor's control of the battlefield increases with his proximity to his opponent.
  • Be aware of how many augments Viktor has upgraded by looking at the color of the light on his staff (purple, yellow, blue, red).
