How to Play:
- Gameplan: This comp can serve 2 purposes, an engine to reach level 9, or a 3 cost reroll comp with win out potential as long as you have Uplink Drone. Both operate at similar tempos until stage 5 due to Viktor being so easy to stabilize around.
- Stage 1-2: Play a strong AP opener and check your Psionic items. If you have Drone heavily consider this comp and slam Viktor items. Almost any AP slam is fine because anything suboptimal for Viktor can go on Nami. If you have to loss streak play timer breakers and plan to spike on 3-5 at level 7.
- Stage 3: Continue to be strong if possible, level and roll on 3-5 if you are loss streaking. By this point you should be scouting and deciding if Viktor 3 is possible of not. If not look to set up for fast 9. The 2 main factors are how healthy you are and how cheaply you stabilize on 7 and 8.
- Stage 4: Stay on 7 if you are rerolling if not, Roll on 4-2 at 8 for a board if you didn’t on 3-5. Viktor 2, Illaoi 2, Nami 1 and the supporting cast are very strong on this stage, specially if you managed to find Bronze for Life. If you can’t make it to 9 due to HP and also can’t hit Viktor 3 play for Nami 2 and to save as many placements as possible by winning most of stage 4 and early 5.
- Stage 5+: Go 8/9 if you haven’t already and look for any 5 cost. This comps goal is to be strong on stage 4 so you should have lives to play with.
- Tips:
- Having 3 Item Viktor and Nami is an easy way to go 9 and also makes the pivot into Bard very easy.
- It’s not advised to play this line if you don’t have an AP or Tank Psionic item.
- If you have to stay on 8 commit to being strong from 4-2 on and top 4ing that way.
- Viktor best itemization is pure damage.
