[5.0] [In-Depth] Semi-Tank Vi Guide

Master Yi is an auto-attack based champion like Vi . However, his power spike starts at 3 items, while your power spike is only at one item. He also has no way to deal with hard CC. 

Amumu is another easy matchup for you. He is a tank, and you are a tank buster. There's no way you'll lose to him unless he's somehow ahead in kills and items. Watch out for Bandage Toss and Curse Of The Sad Mummy combo though.

Jarvan Iv is an easy matchup for you because (once again) you are a tank buster and he is a tank. Watch out for his Cataclysm because without Vault Breaker or Flash, you won't be able to escape.

Another tank. Dr. Mundo is weak against the combination of Black Cleaver and Denting Blows as it shreds through his armor. He's hard to kill in late game because of his regen, so don't let him get fed and replace Black Cleaver with Mortal Reminder if he buys Spirit Visage .

Gragas is another tank you can easily deal with. Just don't let him get ahead and make sure he misses his one-shot combo. He is almost useless with out that. 

An off-meta pick. Malphite is easy to deal with as he has slow laning phase in jungle, so invade him if you can. He'll probably build full AP or hybrid anyways. Watch out for his Unstoppable Force since it's almost impossible to dodge it.

Another off-meta jungler. Has very slow laning phase in jungle so abuse that by invading him. Don't let him stack as he will one-shot your team while tanking anything you throw at him.

Ah yes, Jax . The auto-attack champion that counters most auto-attack champions in the game with his Counter Strike . Wait for his Counter Strike to end, and finish him off as fast as he can before he leaps out of danger with his Leap Strike . His Grandmaster's Might is useless when your Denting Blows and Black Cleaver shred through his armor.

An AP assassin. She can be hard to deal with because of her Demon Shade which makes her hard to catch. She's very squishy and her only method of escape is Flash and Last Caress so rush her down and kill her. If she's ahead, build magic resist items and switch to sweeping lens.

Bait her passive Adaptive Defenses and avoid her Hookshot and you're good to go. Don't let her reach her item power spike ( Trinity Force , Black Cleaver , or Sterak's Gage ). She also has a slow laning phase while jungling so abuse that and steal her camps if you can. She'll also try to kite you with basic attacks and use her The Hextech Ultimatum so be aware of that.

His Aegis Assault will block any damage you throw at him in a certain direction, so bait it out. His stun is a nuisance though. Since he has no escapes other than his Grand Starfall or Flash, it will be easy for you to chase him down.

Tryndamere's laning phase in jungle is slow, however his Undying Rage will allow him to survive your kill attempts later in the game. Not only that, he has a dash meaning he can close the gap between you or escape from you. Bait his ult out if he tries to engage you and save your Flash to catch up to him.

ADC junglers in general are hard to deal with since they'll kite you and you can't even touch them unless they make a mistake or have poor positioning. Do not engage Graves in a 1v1 fight unless you have your Assault And Battery available or when you're ahead of him in items.

Lee Sin has great wave clear and has incredible diving potential. He'll try to bait your Assault And Battery with his Safeguard since your ultimate cannot be canceled or interrupted. Even in a 1v1 fight, his Safeguard is hard to deal with because of the shield and the heal.

This champ is still OP even after the nerfs. His ult Ragnarok breaks your CC chain and his Vicious Strikes helps him sustain while fighting. Ask for your team to invade his camps and don't let him reach his power spike.

Another off-meta pick, instead this time, this demon destroys you. If you try to auto-attack him, he'll just blind you. The blind on his Blinding Dart also works on jungle monsters so he won't be taking a lot of damage either while having poison on his basic attacks which allows him to farm easier. His mushrooms are also annoying and he'll place it somewhere you wouldn't expect. Use sweeping lens and kill him first as he is very squishy.

Even though you're a tank buster, Rammus's Defensive Ball Curl and Frenzying Taunt is very painful. Even Black Cleaver and Denting Blows isn't enough to stop this hypermobile tank. Champions that counter auto-attack champions is simply a hard match for you. Rush level 5 quickly and look for a counter gank. You don't want Rammus counter-ganking you.

May the best Vi win.

Whoever engages first will win the fight. He'll try to use Audacious Charge to slow you down and gain attack speed while his Three Talon Strike is active. Interrupt his Audacious Charge with Vault Breaker then proc your Denting Blows and lock him down with Assault And Battery .

She's also a tank buster just like you, except this time, it's about stealing her drakes. Make sure she doesn't get the Infernal Dragon or the Ocean Dragon since those increase his damage and health in Drake Form. 

He'll try and bait your combo with his Warrior Trickster . Wait it out, and find him so that you can lock him down.

Has great wave clear, huge damage in late game and has a point and click dash and her ultimate has great CC. Whoever hits their skill shots first, wins.
