I don't think using your ult on the bruiser is a great idea unless there are more people around, but targeting him certainly isn't a problem. From my understanding, mages are a counter to bruisers just like bruisers are a counter to high damage AD, so you're in a great position to peel for them. Supports can only delay them, not stop them.

^Viktor is not a classic burst champ. He's three different archetypes in one. Playing him as an assassin also isn't very feasible unless the enemy team is fighting poorly and you're willing to dive them. Neither of these was in the scenario the OP layed out.
