If you looked at the notes over Runes I mentioned that you can take AD quints if you don't feel for the movespeed. But to answer your question it is because(probably in my head) it feels a little smoother to me and helps me aim my Q and helps me catch up to my enemies when I already used my Q and ult.

I take armor pen because I don't build Black Cleaver early. In my guide it shows in order: Trinity Force->Titanic Hydra->Black Cleaver, in this order it is built after 2 items and by then it won't be early game. Reason why I build it third is because she already has an armor shred coming from her W and I get the armor pen to synergize with the max health physical damage coming also from her W. Also, I don't see why getting armor pen and armor shred together is a bad thing. That just means they have even less armor against you and since all your abilities are specifically physical damage there are no drawbacks for armor pen.

It is not like I build Boots of Swiftness in every game I play Vi in. I know how to adapt but the times I get the Boots of Swiftness are when I'm dominating, they don't have a whole lot of CC, or they have more slows than they have other CC.

After hearing what you said about those masteries and a bit of math I've realized you are totally right. After this whole time playing League of Legends I didn't think about how fighters/juggernauts would benefit more off of the hybrid pen than the bonus ad. Thanks for the tip, I'll fix this ASAP.

I mentioned directly under Combo and after the words "AA stand for autoattack" that "T stand for Titanic Hydra".

It is exactly because of the 2(3 auto attack resets counting counting Titanic Hydra) and her W passive that I get Blade of the Ruined King when I'm struggling against tanks/high health enemies. Putting in 2-3 autos quickly applies your on-hit effects from BORK fast and the current health physical damage from it synergizes with the maximum health physical damage from W. When I get BORK I don't get it to assassinate squishies but to use against tanks in a long term fight and thus why attack speed is good. And with the attack speed after proccing W you will also get in more of the on-hit attacks in. By the way, her ult does not apply a stack of her W passive, I can confirm. In the wikia it specifically says under her W that "Vi's basic attacks and Vault Breaker" apply a stack of W.

If you are depending on auto attacks and auto attack resets to be stronger in a lvl 1 trade then better hope your not against a mage, Teemo, Riven, Fiora, Quinn, Vayne, tanks with CC like and Mao and whatnot. If you can't reach them cause of range problems or CC then of course the lvl 1 trade is pretty weak. I didn't say it was completely trash though.

On a champion with two gap closers, why do you need MS quints?

On a champion on which you build Black Cleaver and are going to be fighting tanks in the early game, why do you take armor pen marks? You build armor shred and tanks in top lane rush armor making your armor pen marks pretty useless especially since all of Vi's abilities have AD scalings...

On a melee champion who will be CCed as soon as she gap closes to a carry, why do you take Boots of Swiftness over Merc Treads? Especially since the difference is 15 MS...

On a champion where your only AD items (with the exception of the optional Titanic Hydra) give low amounts of AD (Tri Force and BC combined give 10 less AD than just BT) why do you place 3 points into the mastery that gives you increased bonus AD when you could instead put those points into hybrid pen?

What on earth is "T" in the combo section?

Why do you suggest Blade of the Ruined King when Vi has two auto attack resets and her Q and ultimate both apply her W passive? You're either going to 1 shot the target without needing the added attack speed from blade or you're going to be dead after you don't one shot them because blade makes you so squishy. The AD is also pitiful.


How is your level 1 weak? You have 2 auto attack resets that deal bonus damage... You can dish so much more damage than someone like Irelia or Sion especially at level 1.
