Talk:Viktor/@comment-24800864-20140805040331

Since there's a rework coming for viktor, and this is one of the places that riot would go for ideas, I'll put my two cents in.

I think Viktor should have a weaker early game, mostly because it fits his theme of evolving and adapting, starting off weak and unspecialized, but growing into a late-game monster. As far as the hex core is concerned, I think it's a cool idea that isn't really fleshed out. It only has one upgrade, and a fairly bland, if reasonably powerful, scaling ap aspect. I really feel like viktor should be a late-game powerhouse, and his hex core should be the centerpiece of that. Having upgrades unlock after certain actions could be interesting, maybe your laser gets slightly increased base damage after you hit a champion with it 5 times, or your q shield gets more powerful after you use it to absorb a certain amount of damage. There are a million places they could go with that, and I'm sure riot employees could think of a lot better effects than the ones I listed.

TL;DR: Viktor is all about evolving tech, so he should have a stronger late-game, a weaker early game, and a more interesting hex core.
