Hi guys, I have only recently started playing Vi and I've got to say I love her! Although I have always gone with the same build and I'm not sure if it's the best it could be. My current build is:
Start - hunters machete + 3x health pots
1st Back - Madred razors + boots of speed/ ninja tabi/ mercury treads
Mid Game - Brutalizer + Maw of Malmortius + Frozen heart
End Game - Guardian angel/ Randuins omen

Any help with the build or general tips on how to play Vi would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Honestly, you'll probably want more flat HP. Vi scales extremely well with flat HP. A Giant's Belt immediately after Madred's (or Spirit Stone) and boots does wonders for me when I play her. Also, generally, a mix of HP and resistances is the best way to become extremely tanky, due to BoRK and Liandry's.

You should have 5 health pots with Hunter's Machete start.
I think Spirit Stone is better on Vi tbh. Spirit of the Elder Lizard is really good, even if you don't rush it right away.
Don't finish Maw of Malmortius in mid game. Just get Hexdrinker if you need the MR and shield.
Frozen Heart is rather pointless since you have no health. Just get Randuin's Omen instead, it's stronger overall anyway.
Guardian Angel is pretty weak right now. Definitely not core. You could get it sometimes, but usually other defensive items are more effective.

For Vi, I'd recommend the following item options (in no particular order).
Defensive -
Offensive -
Thanks to Nyoike for the sig!

Did you just list The Brutalizer as a mid game item?
You should prioritize that over level 2 boots imo. It speeds up your jungling so that your a constant threat to the enemy jungle.

I've been focusing on Jungle since it's the role I enjoy and the way I build Vi is first machete and then brutalizer, HP, anti-tank and AD items and selling the machete later on.

Thanks guys, sorry i made quite a few mistakes when making this build (forgive me I was in a rush). I did mean 5 pots at the start and instead of frozen heart i meant frozen mallet. Sorry for the confusion :)
