Although i think vi scales a bit better with items, J4 has much better tanking potential, and against a target with no jumps and flash cd, his ult is crazy good. He also works better for an aoe focused comp like with orianna, whereas Vi works better for lockdown, mobility and catchout comps. J4 also has the aoe attack speed increase. Although the two are comparable, and similar in a few respects, ultimately they each excel in different compositions and at different stages.

If however you aren't talking about well thought out teams, and are aiming for increasing chances of winning soloQ, Vi would be the obvious choice for better catchout and locking down their adc. People make mistakes all the time in soloQ and vi is banned so much because she punishes them very harshly.
