How to play it

✓

His E is undodgeable

Don't try to dodge Hextech Ray: if it misses, he misfired, it wasn't your movement. Respect that the poke lands and play the HP game around it.

✓

Your trade window

Trade when he winds up E to last-hit: if your HP is healthy and you catch him using it on a minion, that commitment is your opening to Shunpo in.

✓

Bait his ult first

Never ult before Viktor: his R interrupts your channel. Force his R out first, then commit yours.

✕

Never press R before Viktor does: his Arcane Storm cancels your ult mid-channel and wastes it entirely.
