Losing an item slot will always be a truth. The fact is that completed items offer more than just pure stats, they all offer a secondary form of utility that every champion is available to, even if that secondary utility is just increasing the stats you get from other items. No matter what Viktor will always have access to one less form of this universal utility than every other champion in game. In exchange for his own passive and very powerful item. Still... this means that Viktor has to build around only really having 5 item options available from the store. So in my honest opinion, being able to replace the stats needed from an item with your masteries will almost be necessary to maximize his potential.
