  • I can see an aggro deck running Sumpsnipe Scavenger (so almost full PnZ) alongside Victor and some augment package, probably Draven as the second champion

     

    Edit: or a midrange like this

     

  • I think this is relevant (and fun to watch).  6 Years ago I watched the video when I was playing League, and it's still a sick line for Viktor:

    Quote From Viktor
    I am the inventor, a bold experimenter. Join as my acolyte and I will be your mentor. Science will destroy you, it will build you anew. The gifts I offer now, eternal power; a new point of view. Steel will fix all your flaws, you will rise above human laws. You will mock them made of meat, they'll drop to worship at your feet. Forget now, the shame of defeat.  Our victory shall be so sweet! Replace all your petty emotions, or keep your blood; you'll bleed oceans! All you little fleshbags stuck with your old hags, watch as their skin sags they're fodder for my labs. Your bodies are so frail. We will be your final nail! This is the revolution…THE GLORIOUS EVOLUTION!

    As for the cards, they seem fantastic and thematic for Viktor.  I hope he pans out to be a viable champion.

  • I’m a little hesitant about the whole “gain random keyword” thing, but other than that I love this design! Viktor has a passive that you makes you want to keep him in the backrow though, so maybe the keyword he gets won’t be that impactful. What I’m mainly worried about are the RNG swings between getting something like Fearsome or Fury versus Elusive, or getting Lifesteal when you need healing. I kind of wish that you got to pick one of three to make it slightly less random. Luckily it’s slow speed, so Viktor will never gain an unexpected Keyword in the middle of Combat.
