alright, lets see. first, vi is primarely played as a jungler. and guess how much mana she needs for it? nearly none. she only needs her w passive. sure her e and q help, but unlike other junglers (amumu) she isnt completely reliant on mana. and even top lane, she doesnt have mana problems. hell even fiora has more mana problems then she does. also many people playing vi build straight up warmogs and guess what? they deal damage. a lot. tbc just helps with it. vi is a bruiser. what else could she be? she is not a melee ad carry, she is not an ad caster (main damage from attacks), she is not a tank, she is obviously neither support nor mage. only thing left is bruiser. and thats because she is a bruiser. also, vi isnt team reliant. her win rate is, when played jungler, relatively high. and junglers who are rather team reliant and cant carry on their own dont have such a good win rate (nautilus comes to mind). unlike yi and trynda she has actually rather good cc, and her ultimate creates positioning where its hard for the enemy not to fight her, as she is placed BEHIND the target, and cuts of an escape like that and can get in at least 3 hits with ease. while yi lands in front of the target and can easily be ccd, and trynda has a very situational slow.

fun fact, malphite is considered a bit too strong and banned pretty often, but unlike vi he deals close to no damage and his ult can be dodged, even if it is damn hard to dodge. and her q is admittable not the best gap closer, BUT as a jungler can be really strong if she approaches from a position where the enemy doesnt see her. and to nocturne, well, all you have to do vs noc is flash, and youre safe. and vi? flash and youre dead anyway. so, i dont see your point.
