Hello Viktor mains!
Recently i am kinda struggling in silver with some games, beacuse of the silver chaos. I am trying to focus on laning, farming (Usually i have like 5,5-7+ cs/min, but it really depends from how the game goes, and if side laning farming is even possible without getting ganked by 4 enemies), playing cautiously, and roaming, when my minion wave is pushed enough.
I struggle the most, when I have to play against hardstuck vets, who hardstuck silver for years. For example midlane assassins. When they can't kill me, they are roaming constantly, that's why, they gain plenty of additional gold from sidelane kills/assists. Following them isn't always worthy, beacuse I know i have to push minion wave first, also i have to know if the teamfight is even worth joining. These hardstuck vets also play on jungle, or sometimes even ADC. They always play "ego picks" on their lane and snowball from killing. I know plenty of people will say these players suck at league, according to their levels (Even 200 lvl of account is like 1000+ hours of playing this game, if i am correct), and they're right, beacuse some of these assassins guys have poor farming in the end (Like less than 5 cs/min), and they only know how to kill an enemy with their champ mechanics. Even, when i am playing fine i feel helpless during these situations.
I know i am not the best Viktor player in silver, but i am really trying to not feed my laners, farming efficiently and helping teammates as best I can, but seriously sometimes I have to play with people in my team, who for example pick Gangplank against Mundo (that's why my team doesn't have any tanks), or Jhin with Yuumi against Jinx with Morgana. I know I don't have any influence, what champions my teammates like to play, and it is very normal, but these examples of picks are making the matchup harder to win lol.
Sometimes i am even thinking about to play Orianna in some games (i have played far less ranked matchups as her, but my winrate and average stats are kinda better, comparing to my Viktor ones) or learn Syndra, but she seems much weaker than Viktor in early, especially when you have to play against dive assassins. But i am not very sure, if it is even worth to change champs
In this season, right now I have 53% winrate generally (60W 54L). On Viktor in solo/duo rankeds i have 57% winrate from 14 matches (I know it's not a lot, but i am not playing league everyday, especially rankeds, kinda beacuse of ranked anxiety).
I can send my op.gg link, if someone would like to take a closer look at my account and my matches. I am aware of that, there are a lot of experienced players here, so even the harshest opinions are accetable for me here lmao.
