The reason he cannot switch Augments in game is because it offers no counterplay to his build.

Example: If Viktor opts for a high damage glass cannon build through Augment: Death, then he'll be more subject to poke or other burst. You can build to survive or avoid his damage. If he is able to switch, he can change to Augment: Gravity making it extreemly hard to avoid his damage, his Gravity Field is already an incredible area denial ability and having it at a high range means that he can more easily set up kills.

It's all about counterplay for reasons as to why he cannot change augments
