Viego Strengths & Weaknesses
Strengths

Viego can steal the lives of his enemies which can allow him to escape danger. As he becomes untargetable, it can allow him to dodge incoming damage.

Viego is a fun and rewarding champion to play thanks to his Passive and his Ultimate HeartbreakerR. Expect yourself to get hooked on him quite quickly.

Viego has a high skill ceiling. This means the more effort you put into him, the better you will be at him. Keep playing him and see yourself skyrocket in the ranks

Weaknesses

Viego’s Passive is only as strong as the enemy team composition. If is picked into a team that lacks a lot of damage, transforming into them might be uneventful.

Viego is a difficult champion to master: in particular, playing around your Passive and your HeartbreakerR can be quite challenging for beginners.

Viego has low utility and his Spectral MawW cannot help him get over walls. This is a drawback compared to other mobile champions in the current meta.

Game plan
Early game
0 - 15 min
Viego is Average

Just focus on farming while keeping the wave on your side of the lane. You do not want to overextend, as you will definitely be ganked.

You should go for short burst trades when possible. Use your Harrowed PathE on the side walls to ensure that you can use the stealth function to escape sticky situations.

Once you get your Ultimate HeartbreakerR, you should look to fight more often. Just make sure you warm up properly; else, you will most probably get ganked.

Mid game
15 - 25 min
Viego is Strong

Once you get your core item, you should look to duel the enemy as much as possible. If the enemy is playing too safe, roam to some other lane.

Helping your jungle should be really easy for you due to your Harrowed PathE. Don't waste any time going to objective fights, as you may be able to get a huge lead there.

Your Spectral MawW will play a pivotal role during this phase of the game. Always make sure that you land it on a high-priority target, as it can help you secure picks quickly.

Late game
25+ min
Viego is Average

Getting a complete build will allow your damage to skyrocket. Don't forget to use your Passive timely to avoid dying in clustered fights.

You can use your Ultimate HeartbreakerR as an escape tool in heavily botched-up fights. This is not recommended because ability can allow you to turn a fight and save yourself almost immediately.

Your Harrowed PathE will be pivotal to fights during this phase of the game. Always try to flank the enemy and get kills on the backline. This way, you will be able to take over the game easily.

Power Spikes
Early game0 - 15 min

Level six is a massive power spike as Viego will be able to unlock a powerful finishing ability. It can help a lot in clutch situations where Viego needs to execute his target quickly.

His early kill pressure is really high since all he needs to do is land his Spectral MawW and then follow it up with his Blade of the Ruined KingQ and auto-attacks. This combo becomes way more devastating once Viego gets his Ultimate HeartbreakerR.

His first item component will give him a massive boost in solo laning. He will be able to look for all-ins frequently and can completely decimate any immobile mid-laner.

Mid game15 - 25 min

Having 2 points in his Ultimate HeartbreakerR will make it easier for Viego to kill his targets. It will help him a lot during team fights and skirmishes near the objective pits.

His first ability will be maxed out at level 9. This will give him a massive boost to his skirmishing potential. He will be powerful when fighting in choke points.

Viego is good in team fights as he can move quickly through his Harrowed PathE, CC crucial targets with his Spectral MawW, and gain multi-kills with his Ultimate HeartbreakerR.

Late game25+ min

Having 3 points in his Ultimate HeartbreakerR will help Viego take over the game effortlessly. His burst damage will increase significantly, and he will melt through the enemy team.

His Ultimate HeartbreakerR will come in very handy during late-game fights. His ability to target the lowest health enemy will make quick work of enemies who have managed to escape with a sliver of health.

Viego is decent in team fights, mainly if he uses the fog of war and his Harrowed PathE to get to the enemy backline. He can even use his Harrowed PathE to zone the enemy off without even trying to kill anyone.
