Depends on your lane opponent. Viktor should be able to beat almost any mid simply because of his Death Ray. Always max it first. Landing it takes knowledge of how they are moving, how they have responded, and some prediction. Viktor IS an area control mage and the closer you are to him, the easier it is for Viktor to win. If close enough you can simply strike the Death Ray on them for an instant hit. From a distance though, try to aim the center of the ray at them so that it will more likely hit. Aiming and firing at odd angles can work very effectivly because only 2 other champions can do that and it almost always surprising. Overall to land it try to hit center and use some move-prediction to hit them. The laser travel is slow after it first shoots out so take that into account.
