Stacking magic penetration is only good on champions who don't scale well with AP. Viktor's AP scalings are incredibly good, so there's no point in getting on him, just as there would be no reason to get  on. I also seriously question the safety of Anivia's combo, which requires her to get within 550 units of her opponent (the cast range is 650, but is center-to-center and not edge-to-edge, which is the calculation used for autoattacks) to land her E while being incredibly slow and squishy, whereas Viktor, who has to get within 525 units of his target to land an empowered auto, has both a shield and a movement speed boost to achieve it. Despite being weaker than before, Viktor's ultimate is still incredibly good, and has greater reach than both Annie and Anivia's ultimates. You likely find it weak because you're having trouble using it correctly, but it nonetheless deals massive amounts of damage if you do happen to trail it onto your target for at least a couple of seconds.
