Who Wins

  • You lose most pre-6 trades due to Viktor's superior range and poke, but can look for quick Q-auto-E combos when he steps up.
  • Post-6 your kill pressure increases significantly with R, but Viktor's R zone control still makes extended fights difficult.

How to Trade

  • Your best trading pattern is Q through minions to hit Viktor, then E forward for auto-Q-auto combo before E-ing back to safety.
  • Only commit to extended trades when you have significant health advantage or jungle assistance, as his sustained damage outscales yours.

Wave Control

  • Focus on shoving waves quickly with Q to create roam opportunities, as you cannot match Viktor's scaling in lane.
  • Look for roam timers after clearing waves, especially to bot lane where your R passive can create massive advantages.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't try to match Viktor's poke trading in extended laning phases, as his range and sustained damage will gradually wear you down.
  • Avoid fighting in his R zone without significant advantage, as the persistent damage and slow make it nearly impossible to win extended trades.
