You have Twisted Fate who uses his auto attack for W, same as Viktor Q, but Viktor gets left behind.
You have opressive Laners like Leblanc and Teemo getting an auto attack buff, while Malzahar’s and Vlads are complete dogshit with less range.
You have Ori who is dominating pro play getting a buff, especially considering she actively constantly uses her auto attack
None of these 3 champs are particularly destroying solo Q or pro play right now so there should be 0 hesitance to “overbuff them”.
Then riot will buff something very unrelated about Viktor and he will be broken and one shot people again for 6 months. Don’t get me wrong I‘m a Viktor main and some others. But I really hate the champion is either extremely broken or it’s just garbage.
