The boots are so ridiculously strong with the upgrade I don’t know whey they spend 3 years trying to reduce snowball and make the game more tactical to play to then add the biggest benefit to snowballing then game has ever seen along with the new boss that also benefits snowballing
The boss spawns two versions, one with askshan revive if low kills and dmg happen, then the high kill one that gives you increased rewards on dragon bonus and baron. Any team can accomplish the 3 feats of strength and get the bonus to the boots, that you have to spend gold on after completing two legendary items first. So Riot has said they wanted those who played well early to get some bonus that isnt used to snowball so hard, its delayed and gives scaling champs a time to scale and fight back. Its a nice compromise on paper, in practice we will see if it threads the needle right and makes for good gameplay or comeback stories.
I think the problem is currently there is very little benefit in getting early kills, sometimes it even ruins lane state if you take offensive summoners and not tp. I think they want to reward aggression to make it viable to early game champs while not touching where late game champs end up late game. If you play smart defensively in lane, farm well, it really shouldn't change how late game champs scale/function
idk if anyone in chat ever pointed it out, but the W evolution slow Ult interaction Azzapp keeps going on about does not actually exist. The W slow is not applied to Viktor's ultimate, so rylais would still be needed. However, the entire point of viktor's kit says that you use the rest of your abilities to slow em down so they stay in the storm, so rylais shouldn't really be needed anyways. EDIT: The W slow effect IS applied to Viktor's ult, but only for the first instance of dmg. The subsequent persistent dmg does not proc the slow, so for a consistent slow effect rylais would still be needed.
The w upgrade says "Viktor's abilities slow by 20%" which implies that all his abilities slow not just the W, otherwise why would you upgrade it at all?
@@Joebobinator Viktor’s *NON PERIODIC* abilities slow. His ultimate does DoT meaning it doesn’t proc the W slow. Has always worked that way, that’s literally why that text is in there. Why they took that part out in the "VGU" I don't know, but the code is exactly the same meaning the restriction still applies.
You know how to read? +15 shield, the w slow, and they also lowered Es mana cost by 10, which adds up a ton, even moreso when youre in a lane where you need double mana runes.
11:08 The ult, Arcane Storm, chase the enemy after you die if you target them, but you targetted Jinx and she died so it doesn't follow anyone anymore Also W upgrade used not work on Ult (or maybe first hit), IDK if any of that changed.
Im not a fan of the new model in general, and the cape length makes it seem unbalanced or messy or something. Spell changes are so minimal which sucks because his W is so lacking. The ult change is nice but i imagine it us going to get nerfed/adjusted. Honestly feel pretty bummed about the rework
From what I get they are a bit different. Both are glorious evolution but one looks to remove all weakness (old Viktor) while the other seeks to do that but also erase the discourse between humans through a hivemind-like thing. They overlap but the new Viktor goes deeper in a different direction. That being said, old Viktor is more grounded in his cause not being really magic related.
@dank1457 As a Viktor main since S3, I miss him being a technopath/transhumanist mage though. His character in Arcane, while in a vacuum works much better for the show and is written better, when applied in LoL it falls flat because there are already several mages with a similar motif. Malzahar already took the "maddened by visions of the abyss" mage archetype the Arcane Viktor embodies, whereas an engineer/inventor who had a flawed but semi-sympathetic ideal of fixing problems by removing humanity's flaws was pretty unique to himself. There was even a cool "trolley problem" he and Jayce clashed on in the old lore where Viktor proposed one of the only solutions that would improve sanitation and quality of life for a diving operation. His idea was to providing upgrade the diving suit for a cleanup operation of the waste in the city, since the toxins inherently drove divers crazy to the point of no return. However, it would come at the cost of autonomy and humanity of those it would save, since it effectively overrided the fear response of the diver's brains for the operation by giving control to those overseeing the operation.
I'm just not a fan of his new design needing to fit with arcane while everyone else just gets a skin. His old design looked less clunky and distracting. Some of the skins don't look as good either. Honestly, both the show and this design needed more time in the early stages of making them.
gameplay wise new viktor is insane and a bop. but i just cant bring myself to like the new ugly visual design. As you said, he looks too long(?) really hate it
@@alexnoack9941 I do like his passive and W, even if they are flawed. I really don't like the new look so if anything I'm grateful that at least his kit is the same. On the other hand yeah the W gets negated by all the mobility in current league and the passive is very early game feast or famine on a champion that's core identity used to be hyper scaling back when the hexcore was an item. IMO they should maybe consider making his W a ground, but that might be too powerful.
I honestly wish they left his original skin in the game for people who liked it, cuz I’m not a fan of his new model, but the ult change is literally something I was hoping for whenever I played Viktor. In my experience, he’s been viable for a while. I think most people just didn’t pick him, because he felt kinda slow. I love playing him.
a custom skin creator said he'd release the original skin files. Not exactly in the game but with a few steps you can play with the original, albeit noone ingame will see.
I like the idea of Viktor, but he's too much of a twink now. Not machine enough. Like all of his machine minions are machine-ish automatons, but he's kinda not really... that.
Worst take seen all day, and i see from your replies alone you keep crying about it everywhere. The guy isn’t machine? Right- so we just forgetting hextech is a thing yeah? We just forgetting how hextech was made too yeah? We just forgetting he has armies of automatons too yeah? They aren’t “machine-ish” that’s pure cope and you know it, rewatch every scene they are in and look at the way they move the way they act, i mean hell, did you even SEE the way it moved and fought when it fought jayce and mel? A key frame that shows machine exceedingly well is when jayce hits the hand with his hammer it twists its entire wrist and arm around (Y’KNOW, LIKE A ROBOT WOULD?) and then treats jayce like a ragdoll holding him up by his neck with one hand and pulling his hammer from his hand. (Y’KNOW, LIKE A ROBOT WOULD AND SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO TO A HUMAN?) the way it moved and the severe lack of emotion, the way it commits and follows orders as given without question (Y’KNOW, LIKE A ROBOT WOULD?) The dude is a literal mage made from machines at its core, the reason he is able to conjure magic is due to machine and the Hextech. Just say you will miss old viktor and stop making up falsehoods like saying he “doesn’t fit his theme” you people with this take are just ugh, so close minded and arrogant, it’s so annoying as someone who loves viktor and has been playing him for so long at this point. Skinny = twink What a dumb mindset- 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Because now it's not a "machine", he goes more into "metallic automa". Also, how the fuck he can be considered a twink? He is skinny (to the point of looking malnourished, so not even that), ok, but his face is literally split in half with the mask blooming from his cranium, where do you see a "youthful appearance"?
I think apart from the visual update, viktor already got reworked to this level by abilities. I played him recently and was happy to see the changes, but I think this new season will only update his visual to this arcane like stuff. Okay expect the ult growing in size, that's new
went from badass tech wizard to whimsical laser twink. cool model, but should've maybe been used for a new character rather than completely overhauling what was already an iconic character model.
1) nothing changes apart from ult so no it's not gonna "break" viktor and his actual 49.1% winrate, and 2) I DONT WANNA PLAY FCKIN IVERN WHAT IS THIS MODEL OMFG im done, that's my otp but im dropping it, finished
kinda reminds me of ahri's rework, took a champ that was good/fine but not exactly meta, and gave a pretty big buff to their ult randomly while visually updating the rest of their kit. not exactly a 1:1 comparison, I know, but viktor might have perma presence in pro play and solo queue from here on. unless he's too strong in one of them, of course (tho he is from arcane so who knows and riot's gotta sell skins so who knows?)
He's mid tier right now even by KR Pros playing him. Riot didn't even needed to rework his ult. The main problem is his W but Riot can't even do the simplest thing smh.
I don't care about any messaging, whether it's ok to rework a character wholly, this just looks plain awful. The way he struts has nothing to do with his character from the show, nor did the abilities get any inspiration to it. It's rushed, not fleshed out.. just like they didn't bother to give Ambessa a unique running animation. At this point they should've just reworked his kit entirely to drop the - you know, 'machine' stuff that he's supposed to be about, and give him a fitting identity
They need to rework Vel'Koz too. What's the point of having a champ that no one wants to play it (except me and azzoppy). They can make it more interesting and more similar to its lore
And me I love playing him, but they can't hit him with the galio rework, I think this type of rework (the Vic one, just without the resprite cuz Velkoz is amazing) I think w changes and q changing damage on distance traveled would for perfect
@@ertygrande8440 there was video that a guy was giving ideas about changes around vel'koz. i liked some of the ideas. i agree that they shouldn't change him a lot but they can make him more like vel'koz we know based on his lore
azzap.. its the same hero... with no difference... only visual... come on now... im sure everyone forgot viktor got reworked before the visual update lol This is the sole reason why i hate arcane and never gonna watch it ever... im not into lesbian/gay relationships and emo/trash girls
@djevebran2432 suuureee.. im wrong yeah about the arcane its definitely not about a delirious woman who became a savior for insane people and two lesbians and one black kid who goes through time etc. Mate. We've seen all of it before. Its another copypasta.
LMAOO those few persistent weirdos in chat trying to convince azzapp he shouldnt be having fun with and enjoying viktor's reworked aesthetic/thematic. stay mad
Man, people crying so much in the comments about his design, it’s honestly so sad to see, i’m glad azzapp is positive about it tho and is praising it where it deserves to be praised, i get that people enjoy old viktor but doesn’t mean you have to shit on the new one and make up just genuine falsehoods in your mind like “it doesn’t fit his theme at all” like what? Are we seeing the same character? Yes he absolutely does fit his theme, he fits it way more than ever before, and then you have the people complaining because he is skinny? Like holy- just because he is meant to be powerful, doesn’t mean he has to be some big hunk of a man or some massive monster alien hybrid machine thing. His whole ideal is superseding nature, viktors whole thing is that he is an extremely intelligent person he is a mage using machines at it’s core, and very typically mages are pictured to be more on the thin side, viktor looks incredibly unique and good for a mage, not to mention an excellently written character, his design and theme fits him perfectly well. is ryze some hunk of a man because he is some massively powerful rune mage? No, he is a fairly thin guy yet it fits him perfectly well as a rune mage. And what of brand? He too is a mage, is he huge and muscular or some super big mutant alien or machine? No, he is once again a fairly thin guy built to fit his theme of fire. You people seem to find any tiny thing to complain about and nit pick, it’s so silly, if you have something to complain about, at least make it reasonable? Just because he is thin, doesn’t mean he is a “twink” tf is that thought process?? I’m glad azzapp does enjoy it and even makes a good case for it multiple times in this vid alone, and i’m absolutely gonna trust his taste and logic over most of the people complaining
Why are you crying so much about people complaint? Are you doing the same thing as them? What makes your opinion more valid than theirs? Not every character needs to be hulk but some people like certain character design and got attached to the old design. Personally, idc about the kit change but I certainly like the older viktor design looks and feel much more.
Really this skin is perfect, and you can see it embraces glorious evolution cuz every guy that is conservative and stuck in the past is complaining about its design and the fact he doesn't look like the robot guy you saw in every other video game. They are even using bigoted arguments like gay and what not.

Exactly my thoughts. At least they tweaked the skins a little and they look fine now.
11:41 that was old viktor's deal too, can't blame you for not knowing that though with how shit riot is at promoting the lore for their own game
