The single easiest way to ensure a near consistent laser hitrate is to cast E over the target. If you do this Death Laser will never miss. NEVER. And it is important to get this down because this is how you can effectively out-trade almost every AP mid in-lane. Typically you can throw Q at the opponent and quickly follow up with E plus an auto attack. Because Q wil soak up some damage and E is such a high-damaging spell, you will out-trade most AP mids with this combo.

As for CDR, the only CDR item worth your time is DFG. Since Viktor only has two consistent spells in his aresenal, the active on DFG is nice for that extra bit of damage if Chaos Storm happens to be on CD. And realize that Viktor is a burst mage so the fact that you "feel useless" after your initial combo is perfectly normal. In any case, Blue plus Elixer will give you all the CDR that you'll ever need. Also, do not forget about Q as it is on a very short CD and is a very strong nuke in its own right.
