Vi is designed to punch tanks
Builds that work better against them are the ones running Conqueror/LT and rushing either Black Cleaver or BOTRK. Eclipse is also good and Divine Sunderer makes them wanna cry
There is no such thing as Tank meta where the best items in the game currently are the ones countering tanks
Consider Vi when going against Tanks, as she is really good into them.
Dont get outscaled tho, Tanks like Sion or Ornn can be really hard to deal with if the game drags longer than intended
Sett
Bruisers overall beat Vi. There is a reasson they are Toplane champs and you are not. I choosed Sett as an example as he is easy to explain. While Vi is designed to catch an enemy, apply as much CC and damage as possible, and leave, Fighters like Sett are designed for long trades. They have higher numbers,they have sustain and they have ways to control the pace of the fight.
Sett for example takes more damage than you do in a short trade, however he can drag you back with E and there is nothing you can do to retaliate. He also has sustain with his OP passive while you only have DShield
This holds true to the next Champs:
Sett
Darius
Olaf
Camille
Kled
Fiora
Mordekaiser
Garen
Illaoi
Yorick
Urgot
KSante
Aatrox
HOWEVER there is still light. Vi can really be a headache in midgame even when behind. She also is an awesome gank target, as she provides a healthy amount of CC and burst to the mix. Your waveclear also allows you to play safer into enemy ganks and control the state of the wave, wich is key to winning Top. Your itemization can also help. Steelcaps counters pretty much 90% of the Bruiser pool
Teemo
Ranged matchups are tricky
Your main advantage is that they are the easiest to gank, as they are squishy and push the wave by poking you.
Vi has a decent time amongst melee against the ranged rats, as she has a true gapcloser in Ult, and a second gapcloser on Q. She is also a good DShield+SecondWind user, and deals enough damage on one combo to be a threat to them. While pesy stuff like Vayne will be pretty obnoxious, you can play around them better than you can play around a Sett
Udyr
Im playing premade with a friend jungling with AD Udyr (AKA the Chogath oneshoter 9000) and its honestly very good.
You provide such an easy gank for him to melt the Tanks and Bruisers of the toplane, and getting fed on them. You provide a lot of space for him later on to enter and oneshot targets during teamfights
