Is this thread still relevant? Because I, for one, see Viktor as one of the most powerful Midlaners if Tank meta is on full bloom. Mainly because Gravity Field + Death Ray combo in his kit is literally all he needs to setup a fight once his own frontline engages on the other Team. Gravity Field, for as much as it is gimmicky is a very powerful zoning tool very similar to the likes of Event Horizon(Veigar's Cage) or even Ekko's W. It essentially makes the other team play around it instead of bypassing it because the skill is pretty strong by itself.

Hell, the fact that Viktor has a huge burst coupled with great DPS thanks to Siphon Power, means that if he ever gets a Gravity Field off on your squishies, Death Ray + Chaos Storm is 100% gonna kill someone. Sure, he is squishy and if he gets engaged he dies rather easily, but he has tools to kite and back off tanks unlike other Mages such as Xerath or even Ziggs. I think that in a Meta where there are no Assassins and people play even triple frontline(Top, Jungle and Support), Viktor is like, the Ultimate mage for the job.
