Guide to Synergizing Vel'Koz and Vi

Tips for Playing as Vel'Koz with Vi

Be very careful about when to use Life Form Disintegration Ray. Many champions have abilities that can interrupt the spell.

Shooting Plasma Fission diagonally and splitting at maximum range allows you to hit opponents that are out of the range of the initial missile, but is more challenging to pull off.

When laning, use Void Rift to kill minions while building stacks of Organic Deconstruction on your opponent. You can then follow up with your other abilities.

Advice to Understand How Vi Will Play

A fully charged Vault Breaker will deal double damage. It's great for catching and finishing off fleeing enemies.

Relentless Force does full damage to anyone caught in the shockwave. Use it on minions in lane to hit enemies hiding behind them.

Cease and Desist is a powerful initiation tool, just remember not to get too far ahead of the rest of your team.
