Except for the Cooldown, Vladimirs Q is actually better.

Because you have to get in range and will take damage doing that (if the enemy isn't totally retarded and let's you poke without trading). If you take damage before getting your shield, which you will then, your shield becomes useless.

But Vladimir heals himself, so even if he gets attacked while getting in range, he will heal back up. Viktor shield will not protect him, if he is attacked before the shield pops up.
