A Vi that tries to build 300 AD by late game is going to feed the entire way there.

She's a tanky dps AD caster, like Garen. She doesn't have viable CC, gap closer, or range to allow her to build squishy.

Talon can get away with it because he has a quick blink, silence, and can nuke and stealth at the same time. Jayce can get away with it because he's oozing with bonus MS, changes to ranged AA, has a high damage skillshot, etc.

Vi can close the gap with her Q... but it takes a while to charge up and slows her movement. She can also close the gap with her R... but it's tied to a long cooldown. Her CC is tied to both of these abilities, so it shares the same weaknesses.

So without strong versatile CC, gap closer, or range I don't see many players building squishy AD on her successfully.
