What makes Viego dangerous
When Viego kills a champion (or gets an assist on a marked target), he possesses their corpse — gaining their abilities, healing, and a free burst — then resets. In a teamfight one kill can spiral into a wipe. He dashes and stuns with his Q-marked hits and dives with his ultimate onto low-health targets.
How to play against Viego
- 1Don't feed his resets: never let him get the first kill in a fight cheaply. Peel and burst him before he possesses an ally and snowballs the fight.
- 2Focus him during his possession window — the possessed body has low health and expires. Killing him ends the chain.
- 3Respect his ult: it dashes onto and executes a low-health target for a guaranteed reset. Don't sit at low HP in his range.
- 4Grievous Wounds cuts the healing he gets from possessing and from his passive. Anti-heal makes his dives far riskier.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓No resets means no snowball — deny the first kill.
- ✓Possessed body is low-health and time-limited.
- ✓Squishy skirmisher; hard CC and burst punish him.
- ✓Healing cut by Grievous Wounds.
Abilities & how to counter them
What each of Viego's abilities does — and how to play around it.
P
Kralın HükmüViego'nun alt ettiği rakipler hortlağa dönüşür. Viego hortlağa saldırarak katledilen rakibin cesedini geçici olarak ele geçirir. Bu sırada hedefin azami canının yüzdelik bir bölümüne eşdeğer miktarda iyileşir ve onun temel yetenekleriyle eşyalarına erişebilir. Hedefin ultisini kendi ultisiyle değiştirir ve bunu bedelsiz kullanabilir.
Strong: possesses champions he kills, gaining their kit, healing and a reset. Weak: deny him the first kill and focus the possessed body — it's low-health and expires.
Q
Mahvolmuş Kralın KılıcıViego'nun hayalet kılıcı isabet halinde hedefin mevcut canının yüzdelik bir bölümüne eşdeğer miktarda ilave hasar verir ve kısa süre önce yeteneklerinden isabet alan rakiplere iki defa saldırarak can çalar.Viego bu yeteneği kullanarak kılıcını önündeki rakiplere saplayabilir.
W
Hortlağın DişleriViego ileri atılmadan önce yoğunlaşarak isabet ettiği ilk rakibi sersemleten, yoğun bir Kara Sis topu gönderir.
E
Ecel YoluViego Kara Sis'e hükmederek bir yüzey şekli parçasına musallat olur ve burayı çevreler. Viego sisin içinde hayalet olarak saklanıp kamuflaja bürünebilir, hareket hızı kazanabilir ve saldırı hızı elde edebilir.
R
Kederli YürekViego yakınındaki bir konuma ışınlanır ve hedef bölgeye ulaştığında bir rakip şampiyonu infaz eder. Kılıcı rakibin kalbini delerek yıkıcı bir şok dalgası oluşturur ve hedefin takım arkadaşlarını geri savurur.
Strong: dashes onto and executes a low-health target for a guaranteed reset. Weak: don't sit at low HP in his range, and Grievous Wounds cuts his healing.
Itemization
Viego is AD with reset-fueled healing. Grievous Wounds cuts his sustain, armor and hard CC punish his dives, and the key is denying him the kills that fuel his resets. Peel your carries so he can't chain a fight.
