Guide to Synergizing Vel'Koz and Viktor

Tips for Playing as Vel'Koz with Viktor

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 Viktor Will Play

Make sure you choose the right augment at the right time.

Death Ray is a powerful poke and a strong area of denial tool. Use it in combination with Gravity Field to control your enemy's position.

In contrast, by aligning Vel'Koz and Viktor together, you may not be providing your team much anti-tank damage dealing potential. We recommend you bring other champions on your team that offsets this gap in their playstyle.
