@ Hexmage

Just like you said. Viktor can't outscale late game carry mids like karthus/ryze/anivia/orianna but the problem is... that's bad. Viktor is designed to be a damaging carry like mage. Not mid assasains (akaili, tf, kassidin) or mid supports (zilein, lux). Plus you might outscale them due to the fact that no one knows how to play vs Viktor nor do they know how Viktor is a lane bully. They'll be walking straight into your lasers thinking "lol low tier noobs" and feed...

The Hex Core isn't that bad untill both mid champions hit 6 legendary items. Then the non Hex Core scale more efficiently. The problems with Viktor does not entirly lie on the Hex Core. Its lies within his horriable mobility AND range... somthing that goes good together right? Similar reason why Annie can't reach the upper competative meta often. She, too is a lane bully except suffer from the same weaknesses of mobility and range. If viktor gets a decent range buff then he may be considered viable, Hex Core or not.

Viktor also lacks a passive... the Hex Core being his passive :)
