Vi is a Diver that deals physical (AD) damage and brings airborne. Some of their lockdown (airborne) ignores tenacity, so you dodge it; you can't cleanse or Merc' through it. Below is Vi's highest-win-rate build from high-elo games; open the counter-build tool to tune it against your specific enemy team.
ABILITIES
PassiveBlast Shield
Vi charges a shield over time. The shield can be activated by hitting an enemy with an ability.
QVault Breaker
Vi charges her gauntlets and unleashes a vault shattering punch, carrying her forward. Enemies she hits are knocked back and receive a stack of Denting Blows.
WDenting Blows
Vi's punches break her opponent's Armor, dealing bonus damage and granting her Attack Speed.
ERelentless Force
Vi's next attack blasts through her target, dealing damage to enemies behind it.
RCease and Desist
Vi runs down an enemy, knocking aside anyone in the way. When she reaches her target she knocks it into the air, jumps after it, and slams it back into the ground.
COMBAT PROFILE
PLAYING ASVi
- 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.
PLAYING AGAINSTVi
- A fully charged Vault breaker deals double damage. If you see Vi start to charge you should back off or try to dodge it.
- Vi will shred your Armor and gain Attack Speed if she manages to hit you three times in a row. Try not to engage in extended brawls with her.
- Vi cannot be stopped while using her ult. Remember to save your displacement effects until after she's done charging.
